1. Literally Iron Your Clothes While You Shower
Say goodbye to those annoying ironing sessions when you’re in a rush (especially in the morning). While you’re having a steaming hot shower, just hang your clothes on a railing or hanger and by the time you’re done showering, all that steam would have eliminated creases and wrinkles on your clothes.
How fantastic is that! Best of all, you’ll actually save both time and money with this neat little hack.
2. Use A Magnetic Strip To Keep All Your HairPins And Objects

Call me clumsy and forgetful but I always seem to misplace my hairpins even when I try to be meticulous about it. Since I’ve been through 3 packs of pins over the last year, I’ve decided to make use of a magnetic strip to keep them lined up and in sight. When I found this hack, I wasn’t sure whether or not it would work for me but to my surprise, I’ve barely lost any hairpins (besides the odd one or two).
You’ll need a few bucks to pick up a good looking magnetic strip but I think it’s worth the investment since it prevents you from losing pins, needles, clips, and attachments. In the long run, you’ll save money with this hack.
3. Wipe A Mirror With Shaving Cream

Can’t seem to catch sight of those hard to see areas because your mirror keeps getting foggy and misty? No problem at all. Just rub a bit of shaving cream onto your mirror and the cream will prevent it from getting misty. When you’re done, gently wipe your mirror with a wet cloth to remove any residual cream.
Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
4. Insert Another Shower Rod To Your Bathroom Wall To Store Items

Can’t find a good place to keep your razor blades, extra toothbrush, creams, brushes and so on? Then this little hack is for you. If you have a spare shower rod collecting dust in storage, whip it out and install it against your back wall.
Thereafter, hang a few baskets, label them and store all your essential bathroom items in them.
5. Use Plastic Sealable Bags For Electronic Devices

Look, we’re all guilty of using our phones, tablets or kindles in the toilet or bathroom at times. But it isn’t the safest place given how often people tend to drop their electronic devices into water (yuck, toilet water).
With that being said, it’s better to be safe than sorry which is why sealing your devices in a sealable plastic bag is the perfect way to indulge in technology without the fear of damaging your devices.
6. Convert An Old Magazine Holder Into A Storage Place For Hairdryers And Curlers

While we’re on the topic of electronic and electrical devices, if you’re strapped for space and would like to keep your hair irons, dryers and curlers in the bathroom without them looking unsightly or haphazardly positioned, then this hack is for you.
Install an old magazine holder up against a wall that’s furthest away from direct contact with water and neatly store your devices in it.

Completely out of space in your bathroom? How about you install a singular bookshelf that costs about 15 – 20 dollars at most and store your cleaning supplies on it! For the most part, it’s out of sight to on lookers and if organized properly, it can appear absolutely smart, neat and presentable.
