Product of the Week: Over the Toilet Etagere!
October 5, 2009
The over the toilet Etagere has to be one of the best inventions ever when it comes to space-efficient furniture. Many of us find that our bathrooms are exploding with cosmetic products, towels, medicine and more! And with the focus of most new home design and remodels being big, fancy kitchens, let’s face it, our bathrooms aren’t getting any larger.
Many new families also find that what used to be a roomy, organized bath is now a central gathering area for everyone’s stuff. The babies have their toys and the teens have their hair products.
One of the simplest ways to add storage and organization in the bathroom is with an over the toilet étagère. These are nothing new, they’ve been around forever, but the selection is much better than ever. At Stacks & Stacks, we have over 10 of the best rated bathroom space savers. They fit right over the toilet, so they don’t take up any extra space in the bathroom, yet they provide so much extra storage. Some of the varieties available have open shelves, perfect for stacking guest towels or a basket of bath toys, while some feature a cabinet on the top. There are metal versions, and also beautiful dark wood models for a classy look.
Here are some other benefits of Over the Toilet Etageres:
1. No drilling required! Since they are freestanding, no drilling holes in the wall required – great for renters.
2. Mobile – They are relatively lightweight and thus easy to move from home to home.
3. Height – You can keep your makeup and medicines up high – out of the reach of curious little hands.
4. Hiding Clutter – the cabinet style etageres hide all of your bathroom clutter behind closed doors, out of sight and out of mind!
Clutter Control Tip: For homes with tweens and teens, give everyone a basket or a shelf with their name on it and make it clear that they can only have as many products as their basket will hold – this will be a space saver and a time saver!
