Make Your Bathroom Cuter By Ditching Your Boring Toothbrush Holder For A Unique DIY

Want to beautify your bathroom and save valuable counter space at the same time? Consider hanging a toothbrush holder on your wall. A TikTok video tutorial by user @mjphotodesign showcases the simple steps for creating a genius toothbrush storage solution. All you need is a wall-mounted bottle holder and a glass container to place inside. There are many ways to customize this DIY toothbrush holder to make it your own. This DIY is both beginner and renter-friendly, especially if you use a self-adhesive bottle holder that is easily removable and drill-free. 

Believe it or not, your bathroom sink is a breeding ground for bacteria. In fact, one 2013 study by BioCote found that the bathroom sink is considerably more contaminated than the toilet. If your toothbrush regularly sits on your bathroom sink, those germs may be going directly into your mouth. Countertop space also tends to be limited, especially in smaller bathrooms. By mounting your toothbrush to the wall in a stylish holder, you will free up space for other essentials and prevent unnecessary germs in your oral hygiene routine, while adding some visual appeal to your bathroom. Without further delay, here's a clever toothbrush storage idea for clutter-free bathroom countertops that is totally worth trying.

For this DIY, you will need a glass tube or jar and a wall-mounted bracket for a bottle holder. The bracket depicted in the video is from Hobby Lobby, according to the creator, however, they purchased it in-store and it may not be available on the website. There are many stylish varieties for sale online, such as this antique brass wall-mounted bottle holder on Amazon. You may have to shop around to find one that is suitable in diameter for the glass container that you will place inside.

The next step is to mount the bracket to the wall. If you don't want to drill holes in your bathroom wall, look for self-adhesive options that are also moisture-resistant, like this set of two waterproof holders on Amazon. Ideally, it should be placed somewhere above your bathroom countertop that is both easily accessible and slightly out of the way to avoid accidental damage. Place the glass container inside and your unique toothbrush holder is complete. You may wish to place several toothbrushes into one larger bottle or install a set of two smaller ones, as the TikToker has done.

There are many ways to customize this toothbrush storage solution to showcase your personal style. Depending on your bathroom decor theme, you can opt for a wooden, metal, ceramic, or copper canister instead of glass. Copper has natural antimicrobial properties, making it a great choice for storing your oral hygiene essentials. Make this craft eco-friendly by upcycling glass jars that you already own. Those with artistic flair can give it a creative transformation with paint, fabric, and decorative twine.
