hi it's Lindsay Diane from Diane
0:04
decor.com today let's talk about three
0:07
guest bathroom must-haves and the type
0:09
of Decor that you'll want to have in a
0:12
guest bathroom and the type that you
0:14
should definitely leave out while it's
0:16
great to have beautifully folded towels
0:18
and the perfect array of guest
0:21
toiletries there are three things that
0:24
are far more important for a guest
0:26
bathroom and that is functionality
0:29
visibility and accessibility in this
0:32
video we'll talk all about what each of
0:34
those mean and the types of Home Decor
0:37
that you'll want to Target to help you
0:39
achieve those three important things
0:41
number one is guest bathroom
0:44
functionality does your bathroom
0:48
function at its most basic level can
0:51
guests go in make use of the space and
0:53
come out it's important to remember that
0:56
guests come in all different shapes and
0:58
sizes and having an excess of amount of
1:02
Decor or organizational items may
1:05
actually hinder their ability to use the
1:08
space properly if your guest bathroom
1:10
has a tub or a shower with it be very
1:15
mindful of the things that you put in
1:18
your bathroom because guests are going
1:19
to need extra space to move in and move
1:22
out of the tub if they're overnight
1:24
guests of course don't take up floor
1:26
space with a standing floor rack instead
1:29
wall mount as much as possible or
1:32
consider one of the over the toilet tank
1:35
shelving units this will give you the
1:37
storage space that you need without
1:39
taking up any precious floor space that
1:43
guests are going to need to be able to
1:45
move around in the shower you'll also
1:47
want to utilize some of the suction cup
1:50
mounted racks or the ones that hook over
1:53
the top of the shower head to save space
1:55
but also give them all the items that
1:58
they need try not to over clutter the
2:01
bath term counter itself especially if
2:03
you have a small bathroom you want
2:05
guests to be able to lay out their
2:07
things whether it's makeup or their
2:08
toiletry bag or what have you you want
2:11
to make sure that that's not all taken
2:13
up with Decor so that they can actually
2:15
function in that space number two is
2:18
visibility you want to make sure that
2:21
your guests can see everything they may
2:23
possibly need so that includes toilet
2:26
paper now while you might not have an
2:28
entire case of toilet paper or visible
2:30
you may have one or two rolls tucked in
2:33
a little tank basket or on the side on a
2:38
shelf or something like that just so
2:40
that they can easily see it and grab it
2:43
if they need it other things that you'll
2:45
want to make sure are visible are
2:48
paper towels or the gas disposable guest
2:52
towels if you want to use those or your
2:55
regular hand towels lotions hand
2:57
sanitizer you don't necessarily want
2:59
those tucked away in a bunch of little
3:01
decorative boxes or baskets where people
3:04
are going to have to hunt for them and
3:05
lift the lid because they may feel as
3:08
though they're kind of snooping through
3:09
your things and aren't sure whether
3:11
they're meant for them or Not So to
3:14
avoid people feeling that way you want
3:15
to make sure that everybody can see the
3:17
things that you want them to be able to
3:19
use number three is accessibility I can
3:23
see it but I can't reach it you don't
3:25
want your guests to have that experience
3:27
we've all run into that at one time or
3:30
another in a grocery store where the
3:32
item that we want is up high on those
3:35
extra shelves and you got to go find
3:37
somebody to get get it down for you you
3:40
don't want a guest to experience that in
3:43
your bathroom especially if it's
3:45
something that they really need like
3:46
toilet paper or maybe a deodorizing
3:48
spray you don't want anyone to have to
3:51
do the Walk of Shame back out to the
3:53
party and Whisper I need the toilet I
3:55
can't reach can't reach it you know you
3:57
don't want anyone to have to do that so
3:59
make sure that not only can they see the
4:02
item that they may need but they can
4:04
actually reach it and get to it really
4:05
easily this is particularly important
4:07
for kids when I know that we're going to
4:10
have lots of young ones around in the
4:13
guest bathroom I usually will lower the
4:16
hand towels and put them right on the
4:18
counter and also hang one on the ring or
4:21
you can do those over the cabinet door
4:23
towel holders that will put them nice
4:27
and low so that smaller people that are
4:30
visiting can reach them easily so now
4:33
that we know the three things that are
4:35
the most important here are the types of
4:37
Decor that will help you achieve all
4:39
those things number one is open shelving
4:42
or floating shelves that's something
4:45
that's going to bring things up off of
4:47
the floor but be within reach of most
4:50
people so that you can put a basket or
4:53
some clear acrylic containers that maybe
4:55
holding some toiletries that they may
4:58
need and they can see them they can
5:00
reach them and they aren't in the way of
5:03
people moving around in the bathroom the
5:05
second is baskets small little wicker
5:09
baskets or Raton baskets are fantastic
5:12
for the bathroom they will help Corral
5:15
your items let you put them on the Shelf
5:17
you can put them on the toilet tank or
5:20
you can put them on the side of the sink
5:22
to help Corral some of the soap and hand
5:26
sanitizer and lotion and towels things
5:28
like that just like a basket you can
5:31
also use a tray to do pretty much all of
5:34
those things you just don't have the
5:36
ability to kind of hold them in they had
5:38
they don't have the walls that a basket
5:40
would have but if you want to use a tray
5:43
on your bathroom counter that's perfect
5:45
it's especially makes it easy when you
5:47
want to go clean your bathroom you can
5:49
just pick up the tray all of the items
5:51
are on it and clean off your surfaces
5:54
and replace it and it's it easy the
5:57
types of things that you'll want to
5:58
avoid having in a guest bathroom for
6:01
Decor are too many small breakable items
6:05
if there's anything super fragile you
6:07
might want to lean away from that so
6:10
decorative objects decorative figurines
6:12
that are glass or ceramic you may want
6:15
to save those for another space because
6:18
it can easily be knocked over by someone
6:21
who is unfamiliar with that space now
6:24
while you may be in and out of it daily
6:26
tidying up using the bathroom on a daily
6:29
basis someone new is coming into your
6:32
space and they may not know the delicate
6:33
balance that you have between this you
6:36
know potted plant and this tray and
6:38
these little things and if they're
6:40
reaching for something it could be
6:41
easily knocked over and broken and the
6:43
last thing that you want is any hard
6:46
sharp shards of anything whether it's
6:48
glass or ceramic broken in a bathroom
6:51
and again hampers can stay out of the
6:54
bathroom if you can I would put them
6:57
into a guest bedroom or guest bedroom
7:00
closet ideally I would save that space
7:04
and make it usable for someone to walk
7:08
around and turn around and things like
7:10
that that's it for this video I hope you
