DIY Saturday: Towel Storage in Bathroom
Apartment living is rough, but even rougher when you downsize from a 1,000sqft apartment to a 600~ish sq feet... What do I do with all of my things?!I have a huge laundry room that can be closed off that has been doubling as my shoe storage, toilet paper storage, cleaning supplies storage and my towel storage. Know that moment when you hop in the shower and you realize you forgot to bring in your towel in the bathroom? Yep. Me.
I realized I needed a better solution to this, and T helped!
I ventured out to Pinterest for a solution, and I've always been attracted to those cute storage crates in the bathroom hanging on the wall--so we decided this one would work. Off we were to Target!
We found the woven crate for around $11 on sale, not too shabby, and we had a bunch of screws laying around the apartment (not literally, man, I have a cat).
This entire process took maybe 10 minutes, mostly because T and I were fighting over how high to put it over the weirdly put towel rack (we have two....what).
We simply drilled four holes at all the corners of the basket inside, and it was sturdy enough already. Currently I have around 8 towels chilling inside and on the top of the basket, it doesn't feel like it's ready to fall down. Don't even ask why I have 8 towels, though.
I'm so in love with this idea, I want to include more of those wicker baskets around my future house, maybe in my laundry room some day!
Bam. Knocked that one out.
