Apart from luxury homes,

most small homes have fairly small bathrooms,

and they usually have little space but lots of stuff,

so never mind two people fighting over it,

even one person finds it cramped,

every wash-up is not a pleasure,

but feels like a chore you want to get over with quickly.

Today Xiaolu will share with everyone

how to use IKEA finds to improve the experience.

1. SILVERAN mirror cabinet: rescues a small sink that cannot hold anything

Many old-fashioned bathroom sinks

probably look like the one on the left,

with a very small countertop and no space for toiletries,

so everything can only be placed in the small compartments above,

which fill up after holding just a little,

and when using it, one hand is searching for things

while the other has to guard the other items to keep them from falling.

Once dust settles on the compartments above, cleaning them is also a hassle...

Many Japanese housewives have switched to

this SILVERAN pine mirror cabinet.

With three tiers of storage space,

it can hold ordinary toiletries and skincare lotions,

and everything can be hidden inside the cabinet.

And the door can be installed to open left or right

according to your own habits,

which is quite thoughtful~

2. ALGOT wall upright: rescues a mirror cabinet that is too small

Some friends do not have a dedicated makeup table,

so they need to do their makeup in the bathroom,

which means makeup brushes, cosmetics and even necklaces and jewelry

are all kept in the bathroom...

The space is already small, and cosmetics take up another part of it,

so there is really no room to turn around!

Install an ALGOT wall upright shelving unit next to the mirror cabinet,

and put all these odds and ends together in one place,

convenient to use and space-saving.

It can also be placed above the washing machine

to store laundry detergent, soap, towels and so on.

The height of each tier can be set by yourself,

and adjusted according to the size of the items stored!

3. FRAKTA curved magnifying mirror: rescues having no mirror

Lighting alone may not be enough,

the FRAKTA curved magnifying mirror

can magnify details,

making it convenient to check blind spots when washing up or removing makeup.

It extends when mounted on the wall, and looks quite nice too.

4. RÅSKOG trolley: rescues having no storage cabinet underneath

If there is no storage cabinet underneath,

you can put a RÅSKOG trolley in there,

and pull it out when you need it.

The problem everyone worries about is probably that the trolley is too tall to fit in,

so you can do what this Japanese housewife does

and use only the bottom two tiers.

You can put some items used when bathing in it,

push it in when bathing and pull it out when done~

5. ORBIT shelf: rescues not having enough towel racks

If there are children at home,

there will be lots of spare towels,

and towels are washed as soon as they are used,

so washed towels need to be easy to use and within reach.

You can stuff the towels onto the ORBIT shelf.

6. BALUNG hook: rescues rusting or falling off easily

Store frequently used towels on the wall with BALUNG hooks,

in silver chrome-plated material,

it looks fresh and will not rust,

and it is installed with screws throughout, so it is not easy to fall off.

7. STÖTTA LED lighting strip: rescues having no light

Small bathrooms generally do not have good natural light either,

when washing up in there you can just use the bathroom's main light,

but when removing makeup, if the light is dim,

eyeshadow and mascara simply will not come off thoroughly,

which is very damaging to the skin.

You can install a STÖTTA LED lighting strip

under the mirror cabinet,

and the effect is quite good too.

8. LERHYTTAN wall lamp: rescues poor makeup results under the light

Install a LERHYTTAN wall lamp above the sink

to add lighting and focus the light around the sink.

This is what the LERHYTTAN wall lamp originally looks like,

above it she has put a lampshade over it.
