Glass shelves for your bathroom from the Container Store

shelves at the container storeMy catalog from The Container Store came the other day, and I thought they had a lot of nice possible  solutions for adding storage to a small bathroom. This is always one of our big topics… one of the headaches we must endure living with small, mid-century bathrooms. These glass shelves and brackets look like they are nice quality, and the chrome hardware and lovely green edge of the glass will look sleek in virtually any of our bathrooms, I bet.

They are not *super* cheap, though: $26.24 (on sale) for the 6″ x 24″ x 3″ shelf (the right size for a bathroom.)

If you want something easier on the pocketbook — there are simple mesh ($9.74 on sale) and acrylic shelves ($9.74 and up, on sale) of about the same size. Note: With bathroom shelves — especially in a small bathroom — you don’t want them to extend more than 6″ or so.

You might also scope Wal-Mart, K-Mart and Target to see what they have. Here is the direct link to The Container Store shelving page…note, everything is 25% off as I write this. They have lots of other nice shelving and storage options. It’s good to keep an eye on this resource.

Perfect timing, Pam! My new master bath has absolutely no storage. These are great, thanks!

I’ve got similar Container Store shelves, but the brackets have hooks built into the bottom — perfect for washcloths. And they look great in our ‘59 bath.
