There is one good reason why those oldsters used to install medicine cabinets in bathrooms. Take a look at this bathroom from the 1930s:
That's right. No counter space. In today's bathrooms, even the smallest bathroom vanity cabinet has some amount of counter space for those very un-Thirties items such as contact lens solution bottles, hair dryers, and WaterPiks.
But where do you actually store stuff?
We've got these five small bathroom storage ideas that are cheap and easy to implement.

Although I love the vintage look of the 1930′s bathroom I have to agree with the lack of counter space. Unfortunately storage space in homes and apartments is getting more limited, so ideas like the ones pictured should definitely be considered. Seriously, whatever happened to the good ole’ medicine cabinet? It can neatly hold all of the small toiletries which leaves space elsewhere for the bigger items. Also I like that everything is sleek and modern so you don’t have to sacrifice style for storage. Thanks for the great suggestions!
I was wondering what is the main reason why a medicine kit is placed on the bathroom instead of a cabinet that can be hung on the bathroom. I mean, it’s not actually a great idea to put your meds on the bathroom since our med kit is inside the bathroom. Not a Good Idea
