Bathroom Storage | Nail Polish Shelf
I’ve got 2 teenage girls who share a bathroom, so bathroom storage is always a top priority! Oh and we have lots of nail polish and hair products. If you’ve got girls that age you know the organization / storage struggle is real! So to help with their bathroom storage I decided to make a nail polish shelf where they could store some of their hair product too.
I’ve been wanting to build a storage shelf for a while and it’s an easy build.
Bathroom Storage Shelf Supplies
- three 3″ x 6′ x .75″ boards
- two 1.5″ x 4′ popular hobby boards
Storage Shelf Cuts:
- cut five 22.5″ pieces from your 3″ x 6′ boards
- cut two 30″ pieces from your 3″ x 6′ boards
- cut both of your popular hobby boards in half giving you four 2′ pieces

Your 22.5″ pieces are your horizontal pieces (top, bottom and shelves). Your 30″ pieces are your sides. I attached all the pieces with my nailer.
Then I attached the hobby board pieces to the front of the shelves. I made the board flush with the bottom of the shelf, so it would create a little edge to keep the nail polish from falling off. I attached the hobby board with a nailer too.
I gave our bathroom storage one coat of a beautiful teal paint. It’s the perfect place to store all our nail polish plus some hair products. I spaced the shelves so there’s 8″ between the bottom shelf and the 2nd and the rest are 6″ apart.

I love this idea! I have looked at a lot of different items to organize my daughter’s bathroom, but none were quite what I was looking for. This one is perfect! The design is very simple and adorable. My daughter will also love it. Thanks for sharing this project. Cheers
What a great idea! I have so much nail polish I don’t know what to do with it all, but this would be perfect!
What a creative idea!!! Thanks so much for joining us at #merrymonday
Wow, that’s a lot of nail polish, ha ha! I love this project and could think of a number of places I could use it. Thanks for sharing on the #HomeMattersParty – I hope you will join us, next week.
This is a super cute idea! I think I will make one very soon 🙂
Wandering over from the DIY like a boss link party… Looks like I will be hanging around your blog for a while… 🙂
This is awesome! I wish I had somewhere for one of these in my home! Thanks for sharing at The DIY Collective. Pinned it!
I bet this really helps keep all those nail polishes corralled in one spot, a perfect storage solution! XO
such a smart way to build a shelf with the wall as backing! love the color you chose Maryann!
This is invaluable, Maryann! I could be used for so many things. Great project! 🙂
That is a fantastic solution to corral all of those bottles! And I love the color that you painted it.
Your shelf is super cute, perfect way to organize your polish collection!
This is perfect for organizing your teen’s beauty supplies. It’s also handy to have the products where the girls can see them and easily get to them when they are getting ready in the morning. We have tiny bathrooms in my house and a project like this would free up some up my precious cabinet space.
thats great. i used a spice rack added a back, for my polish.however its not quite big enough.
Fun organization project Maryann! We sure do collect a lot of stuff, don’t we?
Your “stuff” looks so pretty and organized!
pinning!

This is awesome Maryann – love the paint color too! I could use one of these in my craft room to store craft paint, brushes, etc.
I love your project and wall storage is one of my favorite ways to use space! What a great way to keep teens and nail polish organized. I remember how cluttered having lots of nail colors was when my girls were teens, wish I’d have known then what I know now…famous last words, right?
Really cute idea, Maryann! This would be perfect for my daughter’s stash of nail polish!
