Triple Your Bathroom Storage Space With An Affordable Dollar Tree Hack

We can all agree: lack of bathroom storage is a frustrating daily challenge. It's so easy for small bits and pieces — like claw clips, cotton pads, and self-care products — to get lost in drawers and cabinets. It's even worse if they're cluttering up the sink area. Find yourself in a similar situation where getting ready takes ten times longer because nothing is where it should be? Here's your cue to declutter your bathroom with a few Dollar Tree finds that store products out of sight while tripling storage space. Luckily, you don't need to spend more than a few bucks to do so. One TikToker headed to Dollar Tree, grabbed three baskets, and transformed them into — drumroll, please — behind-the-cabinet-door organizers.

@sara.and.ramal, the brains behind this idea, picked up three of Dollar Tree's Rectangular Slotted Plastic Baskets ($1.25 each) and a pack of self-adhesive hooks. Feel free to check if you have any spare self-adhesive hooks lying around your home. Once you have these essentials, it's time to organize your bathroom vanity and tackle that mess for good.

To begin, attach two hooks on each side of the baskets. You're better off positioning them closer to the ends so that the baskets are more stable and straight instead of wobbly. Now, before you get to sticking, quickly mark where they'll go inside your bathroom cabinet to make sure each tray is evenly spaced and aligned. Although it's a great hidden storage idea for adding space to your bathroom, you could also make this hack work on a plain wall or behind your bathroom door. Peel off the stickers, secure the organizers in place, and fill each piece with your hair accessories and toiletry items.

One commenter mentioned on the TikTok video that Dollar Tree's self-adhesive hooks don't stick for long. Instead, you could opt for 3M's Command Small Clear Wire Wall Hooks. These cost $10.62 for 10 hooks and 12 command strips, and are also known to be more durable. Maybe even consider Dollar Tree's Essentials Iron Rectangular Baskets ($1.25 each) for a sturdier alternative to the plastic ones. This way, you can store heavier items like bath bombs, bottled products, and hair styling tools — so long as your adhesive hooks are up for the task.
