Bathroom Medicine Cabinet Ideas Needed.

[Sifter]

I need some solid ideas on how to better manage the medicine cabinet.



As you can see, two pathetic shelves, and A LOT of wasted space. DW wants to avoid the spring loaded rods that are used for regular cabinets if possible.

Kind regards.

Make a "drop down" shelf from plexiglass... Suspend from shelf above. Added an extra shelf to our freezer using this method. Used wire ties in freezer. As said, buy plastic baskets to contain shelf items.

X2 on the replacing with wood with mirrors and twice the width if you have space.

I took mine out and replaced it with a much larger one that I got a Lowes. It has three mirrored doors and much more space.

Take out the cheap plastic one and make a nice wood one with shelves placed where you want them.

A piece of elastic strung from one side to the other about 2" above the shelves did wonders for keeping stuff from falling all over when opening the door.

I hated the cheap medicine cabinet in our trailer so I replaced it with a bigger metal one from home depot. It gave is considerably more room and an extra shelf.

we bought narrow plastic baskets at the dollar store or look in kitchen drawer organizer area. Perfect to hold pill bottles, bandaids, etc. Stackable little shelves for vertical storage. Spice clips to hold pill bottles, tubes of stuff, etc. Hooks. Look in beauty supply stores for nail polish storage things.
Search on www.amazon.com for bathroon organizers.

We use plastic bins (reused from baby wipe containers) to organize things that won't try to escape from the MC.

Most everyone can work with wood...I'd suggest to add a shelf in the middle and add a couple of retainer pieces on the front edge of the existing shelves. You can attach everything by drilling the plastic and attaching with screws and glue. You could even add two shelves, depends on what you store in there.
