40 Bathroom Hacks, Projects and Tips to Make it Clean, Tidy and Stylish

Stone Mat

Stone Mat
I now know that the concept of love at first sight is real because I fell head over heels for this mat the second I laid eyes on it. The river stones almost give your feet a mini massage when you step on them. And this specific tutorial is very thorough and ensures that it's not just pretty, but totally practical too.

Update Your Tub

Update Your Tub
If you're bored of the plain white porcelain, you can use this fake, super light stone and glue it on the side of your bathtub for a totally new look. It'll make your once ordinary tub an extraordinary focal point – this is especially perfect for a smaller bathroom because it draws the eye.

DIY Air Freshener

If you want to make sure that your bathroom always smells fresh, you can make your own little air freshener tub. Baking soda will absorb any bad odors, while a few drops of essential oil will emit a subtle scent.

Magnetic Strip

Magnetic Strip
Bobby pins seem to be everywhere and nowhere in my house – sometimes they're lying all around the place, and other times (when I really need them), they're impossible to find. Keep yours together with a simple magnetic strip, which is also perfect for metal tweezers and nail clippers.

Tidy Up the Toothpaste

Tidy Up the Toothpaste
If you have kids, then you may struggle with keeping the sticky toothpaste residue off the sink and who knows where else. It gets pretty gross, and it just looks terrible. A clever way to combat this is to squeeze your toothpaste into a soap pump bottle! Genius, isn't it?

PVC Toothbrush Holder

PVC Toothbrush Holder
Don' have enough counter space in your bathroom? If you don't like the idea of an ugly cup sitting there to hold your toothbrush, you can really think outside the box and make hanging holders from PVC piping. I just love cheap and clever repurposing ideas like these!

Towel Bath Mat

Towel Bath Mat
As you know, I'm all about upcycling and repurposing, so this bath mat made from old towels is right up my alley. This is a perfect way to reuse your older, scraggly-looking towels and save them from the trash; not only does it look cute in the bathroom, but it really does the job in a luxurious manner.

DIY Shower Curtain

DIY Shower Curtain
A fun shower curtain can make all the difference if you're looking to make your bathroom look a little more fun or exciting. Pick your favorite inspirational or funny phrase and stencil it on to a regular shower curtain. This just gives you that little bit of personalization.

Bathroom Jars

Bathroom Jars
If you're one of those really neat and tidy people with a hint of OCD, then you'll probably love this one. For those of you who hate the look of ugly and ununiformed bottles cluttering your bathroom area, get a couple of matching bottles that you can label and keep refilling.

From Window to Cabinet

From Window to Cabinet
As you know, I'm all about repurposing, so I really am obsessed with this little gem. This antique window-turned-bathroom cabinet is so rustically elegant, and you'll be surprised at just how easy it is to find a window like this. It would look especially perfect in a beach house.
