Sometimes the best place to look for bathroom products is the kitchen section. IKEA kitchen items are well-suited for an efficient bathroom, with plenty of wall-mounted storage units, rails that can double as towel bars, sinks, cabinets, and countertops:
Top: In the bathroom, the Asker Dish Drainer ($29.99) becomes a towel shelf or a spot for soap, and the Asker Holder ($10.99) contains shampoo bottles and a washcloth.
White Asker Containers ($5.99 - $7.99) can serve as bathroom caddies, and Asker Hooks ($3.99 for 5) can hold towels.
Sota Jars ($2.99) can hold cotton balls and Q-tips. Countertops come in wood, stone, acrylic, and laminates.
The Grundtal Cutlery Caddy ($5.99) could hold your toothbrush, while magnetic Grundtal Containers ($4.99 for 3) can sort smaller items.
Kitchen knobs and handles for the bathroom: Tyda Handles ($9.99 for 2), Takta Handles ($4.99-$6.99 for 2), and Artig Handles ($7.99 for 2).
This photo shows the Domsjo Double Bowl Sink ($311), which could work in a bathroom. For more kitchen sinks and faucets, click here.
The Bravad, Udden, and Varde systems all offer lots of freestanding cabinet options.

I put three asker containers in my bathroom lined up vertically next to the vanity mirror.
At the last minute I came up with a hanging solution Iâm really happy with. I used some spare green .5â grosgrain ribbon I had lying around looped it through and nailed through both ends of the ribbon. I left enough extra for the ribbon the fold over and cover the nail.
The hold my 1)make up brushes 2)toothpastes 3)comb and hair scissors
Looks great, and solves my lack of counterspace.
