When it comes to bathroom storage there are lots of ways to keep your space neat and tidy, to ensure that it remains a calming, relaxing environment. One such place which you can utilise to great effect is under your basin or sink – an oft overlooked area which can double up as great storage space for the savvy homeowner.
In this blog we’ll subsequently give you some inspiration about how you can make the most of under-sink spaces, so read to the end to find out more …
Using the area underneath your basin is a great way to create extra storage in your bathroom.
The type of vanity area you have in your bathroom will influence how you can create storage solutions in and around it, but there are various ways in which you can get creative in this area. Whether you have a floating vanity unit, one with existing open shelf space or a vanity with in-built storage, extra space is always within reach, with a little imagination …
For example, the Josef Martin Skool Floorstanding Vanity Unit - Azure with Copper Inset has an open shelf area already built onto the unit, which is perfect for placing towels or other items on. Smaller containers could also be placed on top of this, such as baskets or boxes, if you want to compartmentalise the space and tidy away loose toiletries or toilet rolls.

Drawer organisers: If your vanity unit comes with a drawer then you can also add your own drawer organisers within the cabinet to store smaller items such as make-up and toiletries. This will make more efficient use of your space and actually result in giving you more room within the remaining area, while also keeping items within easy reach.
The Josef Martin Roxbury Floorstanding Reeded Vanity Unit and Pebble Worktop has a secret internal storage drawer at the top of the main drawer which is ideal for keeping smaller items safe and out of the way. If your vanity unit doesn’t have this under-sink storage option, then you can add your own to the drawer to make more efficient use of this space.

Adjustable shelving: Customising any free space underneath your bathroom basin is a great way to create storage and perfect for holding towels and other items. You can either add one main shelf or a few, depending on the amount of room you have available for a bespoke storage solution.
For example, as seen on the Chevron Wall-mounted Vanity Unit and Basin with Brushed Brass Frame, an open shelf at the bottom of the vanity unit is a great way to create extra storage room. You can either invest in a unit which already has one or fit shelving yourself underneath to maxmimise the use of space in your bathroom if you need additional storage solutions.
Wicker Baskets: As well as adding visual interest and texture to your bathroom, using wicker baskets is another way in which you can create stylish storage. Simply place underneath your vanity area and enjoy easily accessible storage which blends in with your surrounding décor.
The Josef Martin Roma Wall-mounted Vanity Unit in Marble Gold is a large floating vanity unit with room underneath where you could place small baskets or containers for added storage. It also comes with a roomy single drawer, so there are plenty of options for maximising storage with this unit.
Towel hooks: Our final suggestion for creating under-sink storage in your bathroom is to fit towel or robe hooks, as these are ideal for hanging towels or toiletries and can add a quirky look to your space. For example, the Eliseo Ricci Vesu Robe Hook could be attached to the side of the vanity unit or underneath, depending on its design, to provide a discreet option for keeping items out of the way.
