Tiny Bathroom? Mighty Storage! MAKE EVERY INCH COUNT IN YOUR BATHROOM Even your closet-size bathroom can feel open and organized with the right tricks up your sleeve. If you’re battling limited space, you don’t need a full renovation; a little creativity and a few clever additions can make a difference.

HOOKS WORK WONDERS Simple stick-on hooks are your bathroom’s new best friend. They come in stylish finishes like brushed silver, shiny gold, or classic bronze to match your aesthetic, and installation is a breeze. Use them for towels, robes, or even loofahs and swimsuits. Over-the-door hooks use the space most often ignored — right behind the door. COMPARTMENTALIZE WITH CONTAINERS Nothing beats a tidy drawer or medicine cabinet, and the secret lies in compartmental organizers. These small containers store everything from Q-tips to toothpaste, so your essentials stay where you need them. Take it further with stackable bins or below-the-sink drawers that maximize the awkward space around plumbing. The more compartments you have, the more clutter you can keep organized and out of sight! SHELF YOUR WORRIES Floating shelves aren’t just chic — they’re lifesavers! Mounted above the toilet or beside the mirror, these sleek platforms hold rolled towels, candles, or

your go-to products in style. If you need more hidden storage, look for small cabinets or racks with doors to conceal the clutter and cut down on dust.

THINK OUTSIDE (OR UNDER) THE BOX Do you have a sink with exposed plumbing under it? A pair of triangular shelves can hide unsightly pipes while storing supplies in an aesthetically pleasing way. You could also try a compact rolling cart with tiers — it’s mobile, versatile, and perfect for storing everything from bath bombs to spare TP. With just a few simple upgrades, your small bathroom can be beautiful and functional. Don’t let limited square footage hold you back! Get creative and organized, and love your little space even more.

Clear the Clutter, Claim the Space

Your Garage, Reimagined

many of the items anymore. The best strategy for decluttering a garage is to separate everything into three piles — one for things you want to throw away, one for things you want to relocate, and the last for items that must stay in the garage. From there, you just have to follow through with your plan of action. It’s as simple as that! You can probably do this in just a couple of hours, depending on the state of your garage. ORGANIZE After throwing away one pile and finding a new home for the other items, you’ll need to tackle the things that must stay in the garage. Don’t just throw them around in any open spot; you’ll find yourself with a cluttered garage again! Instead, create designated areas for everything, ideally using

shelving, cabinets, and storage totes. That way, everything will stay organized and out of the way.

NEW PURPOSE Now that you have space in your garage, you can turn it into something more. Sure, it could be nothing more than a place to store your vehicles, but you could give it a bigger purpose. Your garage could be your own personal gym, a workshop for all your home-improvement projects, a space dedicated to entertainment, or a place to practice your favorite hobbies. You could even soundproof the space to make it the perfect practice place for your band or install a golf simulator so you can still work on your swing when the weather doesn’t cooperate. The options are limitless!

Like an attic, garages seem to be a catch-all for extra items that don’t have a regular home within our houses. Holiday decorations, rarely used sports equipment, old furniture, and other clutter often take up every inch of open space in the garage. Some people have so much clutter that they park their cars in the driveway or street because the garage has no room. How do you break free from the clutter and get more out of your garage? It starts with some effort and a plan. REMOVE THE CLUTTER While you likely have some things in your garage you want to keep, you probably don’t need
