Before you dive right into a bathroom renovation in Sydney, you might be able to achieve the same outcome by making the space more functional. With some innovative storage solutions and minimalistic designs, you can transform your bathroom and improve your daily routine. It’s stress-free and we provide tips to make the process seamless. 

The Power of Decluttering 

When was the last time you took a look through the items you’re storing in your bathroom? You might just be surprised to find out how many of those “essentials” expired several years ago. Empty all of the drawers and cabinets to ensure you go through every item. If it’s expired, old, or unused dispose of it. Once you’ve culled your toiletries, you can divide them into categories. If space is at a premium, create a cleaning kit and store it somewhere else handy to free up more space. 

Now that you have a clean slate, you can lay the foundation for organisation. 

Practical Storage Solutions 

Step one required heavy decluttering, now you can put practical storage solutions into place to store the important items. 

This step is all about space optimisation, whether you install vertical shelving or buy under-sink organisers. High shelves are a great place to store baskets and boxes, which can also feed into your preferred aesthetic. A vanity sink unit also provides additional storage space, which you can further organise with shelves and slots. You can use decorative touches as storage as well, jars make a great place for cotton buds and balls. 

Minimalistic Design for Maximum Impact 

Minimalism has been popular for a long time and that’s due, in part, to the calming clarity it brings when properly executed. Bathroom renovations can help you achieve this, especially when you make strategic design choices with sleek fixtures and clever colour palettes. It’s all about creating effortless chic to deliver organisation and a calming atmosphere. 

Crystal Bathrooms Sydney can work with you to design the perfect bathroom for your space and style. We optimise the usage of space to deliver something special. 

Strategic Decluttering Techniques 

You can take preventative steps to avoid decluttering after you have finished renovating bathroom spaces in your house. 

Medicine cabinets are great, but what if they’re overflowing? 

  • Regularly check expiration dates to avoid issues.
  • Affix hooks to the inside of doors to provide you with additional storage space. 

Only keep necessary items in the bathroom and for that typical countertop chaos. 

  • Put a storage solution in place to deal with it.
  • If you like the ease of having certain items on hand for easy access, keep it to daily use items and install a set of trays to keep it organised. 

Decluttering can be a big job, which is why you should make it a regular practice. Disorganised drawers can be a source of great frustration. 

  • Drawer organisers can do some of the heavy lifting and encourage everyone to replace items where they came from so the next can find them easily.
  • The items you use most frequently should be stored near the front of drawers. 

Multi-Functional Furniture and Accessories 

You can improve your bathroom organisation and maintain your aesthetic with multi-functional furniture and accessories. Items like mirrored cabinets, storage stools or benches, and vanities with built-in storage are ideal ways to make the most of your space while delivering useful objects that form part of your daily ritual. Towel ladders, floating shelves, and baskets can fit with the overall look of the space while delivering plenty of storage space. With magnetic strips, apothecary jars, and decorative trays, you can organise easily and decorate the space. 

Sustainable Organisation 

You can minimise waste by choosing sustainable and eco-friendly organisation options. Bamboo is one of the planet’s most sustainable materials so look for baskets, caddies, shelves, toothbrush holders, and cabinets for the ultimate in sustainability. You can optimise organisation while still making eco-friendly choices. 

Using refillable containers is also a great way to reduce your footprint – glass jars, fabric storage bags, and refillable dispensers. You can even invest in reusable bamboo face rounds to replace the disposable cotton ones. You can recycle any plastic storage items you have or upcycle old. 

Transforming Your Bathroom Oasis 

The aesthetics of any space matter, but it isn’t all about that – learning how to declutter and organise a space can be just as transformative as a full renovation. With the tips and ideas above, you can create an ordered bathroom that delivers the daily tranquillity you’re after.
