Creating extra storage space in your home can definitely be tricky, but coming up with ways to create more storage in a bathroom can be downright difficult. Bringing furniture into an already small bathroom might seem counterproductive, in reality, there are several surprisingly storage- furnishing tips worth making room for. From bar carts to bookcases, here are seven funky furniture pieces that make wonderful bathroom storage hubs.

1. A decorative ladder

It’s funny how something as simple as a decorative ladder can transform your entire bathroom, but that can happen when you opt to use one instead of a conventional towel rack. Whether you find a sleek one online or DIY your very own, they’re a stylish way to create more storage in your bathroom.

Who knew how helpful an elegant bar cart could be in your bathroom? Along with offering extra space for stashing towels, beauty products, and other toiletries, these four-wheeled wonders can move around your bathroom and fit into cramped corners with ease.

3.   A short bookcase

A compact bookcase can work wonders for just about any room of your home—and that includes your storage-deprived bathroom. Whether it’s a small open bookcase or double-door, bookshelves are a unique way to forge more bathroom storage without taking up a ton of floor space.

4.   A tall dresser

Believe it or not, an extra tall dresser (like a lingerie dresser; the one in image) can do more than just double your closet space. A well-placed dresser in your bathroom—think: in a tight corner or against a narrow wall—can offer endless storage opportunities for keeping your toiletries out of plain sight.

5.   A cabinet with a hutch

While it’s not ideal for a tiny bathroom, if you’re lucky enough to have a larger bathroom then by all means, consider investing in a cabinet with a hutch like the one in this image. Not only will it provide ample room for storage, it offers a well-balanced blend of both open and closed shelves, as well as plenty of drawers for hiding unmentionables.

6.   A rolling cart

If you’re searching for a petite and inexpensive way to score some extra storage space for your bathroom, try using a cute rolling cart. Along with supplying cubbies for storing towels, cosmetics and other personal products, these mobile charmers can squeeze just about anywhere inside your bathroom—and hardly cost a thing.

7.   Slatted bed base

Okay, so I know this one seems kind of different but just think about it for a moment. Not only does hanging a slatted bed base on your bathroom wall create tons of vertical storage space, it could be created into something very stylish which will not cost you a fortune at the end of the day.
