Storage

Until recently I've had a hanging stack up organizer in my daughter's closet and that's where we've kept her towels, sheets, etc.. I need that closet space back for her clothes and am looking for another option for all of those items. Our linen closet is full, there is no storage space in our small bathroom, and the floor and shelves in my daughter's closet are also in use. What ideas do you guys have for storing these items? Something that hangs from the back of the door would be perfect but I'm very much open to ideas. Thanks!

What can I do next?

There is this space bag organizer you can buy on line or at walmart (the outside looks like a canvas box). I use it for my linen closet to store the extra comfortors/ pillows/ sheets ect leaving room for the towels, washclothes or anything that is used daily. We lived in a small townhouse with 5 people and our lines closet was very small so I'd look into seeing if this might help

the hanging from the back of the door option is one we utilize in every room in our home. Kids all have big shoe bags on the back of the doors. target has some great ones that have multiple size pockets. they keep video game stuff electronic stuff, batteries, art supplies, school supplies and when they were younger stuff like under wear and socks and pjs. never under estimate the use of the space under her bed. get some storage bins that will slide under and keep out of season clothes, shoes and coats and blankets in them. slide out when needed but out of site when not needed. and added bonus the space won't fill up with toys and clothes and stuff that you ahve to search for. good luck

Under the bed boxes sound like an answer. You can get them that have a zip open plastic cover.

What about one of those units that have either cabinets or shelves that stands over your toilet?

How about thin storage bins that slide under beds, those vacuum seal bags that save space, or shelves in your attic/garage/basement?

Sounds like time to purge:) As far as no storage in the bathroom, have you tried one of the shelves/cabinets that fit behind the toilet? We have one in my son's narrow bathroom with the towels stacked on top. We also found a multi bar towel rack that hangs behind a door on the hinges. You can also purchase racks similar to those used in hotel bathrooms. You could also get creative, use a zippered pillow sham to store the towels/sheets as a throw pillow on the bed.
