Can anyone give me any ideas on how I can make use of this bathroom shelf??Since it doesn't have doors,i dnt want or like the look of having shampoos or lotions or anything of that sort out in plain sight...The shelves aren't wide enough for any towels, no matter how I fold them or how small the towel may be...It's not in between the studs, so it's basically just sticking out taking up space in what is already a small bathroom...So PLEASE can anyone give me ideas🤔 to how I can make use of this ugly😝shelf.😦
To me it is not ugly at all and I would be jumping for joy if it was in one of my bathrooms. You can add decorative trim and paint to match. I would style with pretty accessories. A glass jar full of decorative soaps, pretty perfume bottles, jars of cotton balls, q-tips, etc. A jar of pretty sea shells or rocks. Roll hand towels and wash cloths and sack in a pyramid style.
Where is the shelf in your bathroom? Maybe potted plants? They can be faux plants if you want. https://jessicawellinginteriors.com/style-indoor-plants/
Moni....I like the shelf also and would add trim to dress it up and like Naomie and Jessica's ideas. A collection of old medicine bottles would be pretty with a single flower. Candles would work and It's nearing Christmas and could be filled with Santa, Snowmen, Angels, etc. Use your imagination. Good luck
If it's just "stuck on the wall" and you hate it, why not take it out?
I would put a pretty paper on the back and use for things like cotton balls, make up, anything that might normally clutter a counter top.
LOL! Thanks for that Moni! OK - I would paint it to match the tile it's against. Take the tile to a paint store to have them match it. Yes, wallpaper on the back of it would be nice as so little will fit on the shelves.
I would get containers the same width as the shelves to house bathroom supplies such as soaps, shampoo, etc. Fill most of the shelves with bathroom "art" such as funky stylized tiny toilets and bathtubs.
