One popular way to add storage for the home without much expense or taking up much room is a home magazine rack. These can be quite simple, and can easily be put by a chair or a recliner as a handy way to store catalogues and magazines, and have the dual advantage of being easily moved. But without a doubt one of the most popular types is the bathroom magazine rack or holder. These come in a few other styles, as a recliner is not the “standard” chair in the bathroom, so they need to be installed in some unique ways.
One of the best decorative elements you can install in the bathroom is custom molding. While this is not the easiest DIY project, it is well within the capabilities of a handy homeowner.
Bathtub drains seem like they attract clogs. And eventually you’ll find you will need to repair or replace one.
Bathroom drains tend to require maintenance or repair a little more often than those in the kitchen. The bath has no garbage disposal and the kitchen drain doesn’t get anywhere near as much hair. The sink drain is the most likely culprit. Hand soap, toothpaste, hair and other things tend to gum it up.
If you want to dress up a bathroom, especially a smaller bathroom, one of the biggest changes you can make is to replace the vanity and the bathroom sink.
There is a great variety of bathroom sink styles available today. Pedestal, wall mount, countertop and more provide options to fit any space and decorating scheme. Each has its unique installation details. We’ll cover some general tips for just a couple here.
Some places never seem to have enough room. Every home has a small bathroom that is always cramped and has no room for towels or toiletries. And a college dorm never has room for everything.

Small bathrooms present problems for all of us. Even in homes with large master baths, we have a small bathroom we have to deal with somewhere in the house. Here are some ideas on how to best take advantage of the limited space in your bathroom by using over the toilet storage cabinets to use an area that otherwise might not be used.
