10 Bathroom Essentials for Every Home

Your bathroom should have these if you’re particular about having the best bathing experience.

Remember, your bathroom is the one spot in your home where you get to lay it all bare. So, why not make it as comfy as possible? Check all the boxes in this piece, and you’d have the most amazing bathroom experience ever.

Shower Curtain

A shower curtain is a must, except you have glass panels that enclose your stall or shut in front of your tub. Almost every color, pattern, and texture is available in shower curtains.

It can be one of the few opportunities you have to showcase your own style in a tiny bathroom with restricted space! Simply check that it fits your tub or toilet stall's width and that you have the proper hooks and rod to hang it from.

Shower Curtain Liner

While a shower curtain may help maintain your privacy in the bathroom, it's not much use without a liner to keep water where it belongs and prevent messes. To prevent water from leaking out of the tub, hang a plastic or vinyl liner behind the curtain and drape it within the tub.

Hand Soap

You'll need soap on your bathroom counter so you can wash your hands. You may choose a soap dispenser that matches your decor, one that has your favorite seasonal fragrance, or even one that is battery-powered or rechargeable. Instead of having one guest towel if you're sharing a bathroom with visitors, use disposable guest towels that you may discard.

Toilet Paper

When it comes to the restroom, I can't think of anything more essential than toilet paper. In case the roll in the dispenser runs out, you should have a few spares ready. If you or your visitors run out of toilet paper, that's a problem.

Bath Towels

You'll need some towels unless you like to let the water drip off of you. After you get out of the shower, you should definitely get yourself a good pair of absorbent bath towels or bath sheets. The more towels you own, the fewer times you'll have to do the washing.

To make it easier to grab your towel once you step out of the shower, it is a good idea to install a wall hook or a towel bar in the area next to the shower.

Toothbrush Holder

If you use an electronic toothbrush, you don't need a holder for it, but if you use a manual toothbrush, having a holder for it is very necessary. Put it on your sink or vanity, stow it away in your medicine chest, or put it in a cupboard next to your sink to keep it out of the way.

There are so many compact and affordable toothbrush holders on the market now that there is no longer any need to place your toothbrush in a horizontal position on the edge of the sink.

Trash Can

A garbage can, no matter how little, should always be kept next to the bathroom or kitchen sink. Even if you don't make much waste in the bathroom, it's still a good idea to have a trash can for visitors to use after they're done. Like I said earlier, this is often overlooked, and that's not a good idea.

P.S: Put a liner in the garbage can so it doesn't smell and attract vermin.

Non-Slip Shower Mat

Slippery surfaces exist in the bathroom due to the presence of water. The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention reports that annually, over 235,000 individuals sustain injuries that need medical attention after being injured in the restroom. Sixty percent of those injuries occur while people are entering or exiting the shower or tub, or when they slip and fall while inside.

Putting a non-slip shower mat in your tub will help you avoid injury. Many of them are equipped with non-skid suction cup feet. Remember to wipe the bottom every now and again by peeling it off. Mold will begin to grow if the bottom isn't cleaned regularly.

Storage Containers

In order to keep a tiny bathroom nice and tidy, you just need a few containers of various sizes to put in the medicine cabinet or to place under the sink. To save money, choose the transparent plastic ones if you want to store them in a cabinet. Choose something more ornamental if you plan on displaying them.
