If you are looking for extra storage in you busy, multi-functional family bathroom, consider moving in a few furniture pieces from other rooms in your home.

Move a bookshelf into your bathroom as an unexpected source of extra storage space and mix items such as washcloths, books and a lamp with more practical, daily use items like cotton balls and after-bath lotions.

Paint the cabinet and drawer fronts with chalkboard paint and then label them with your kids' names so there will never be a question as to whose things belong where. This can be especially useful when girls are sharing a bathroom, but boys will find it a fun accent too. No kids, no problem… just label the drawers with fun words or the items inside to entertain your guests.

Add a trunk or shallow side table as an unexpected accent and fill it with excess items such as shampoos, soap bars, old bath towels or tuck away child bath toys when not in use to help maintain a clutter-free bathroom that can function for guests of any age.

Don’t forget to include a fresh, clean scented candle or reed diffuser to complete your space. Nothing is more pleasing to bathroom visitors that feeling like they have entered into a fancy hotel “lavatory” when Mother Nature calls!
