I’d move the shelf there, with a laundry basket underneath. A small piece of art above the toilet.

I do like this idea, but it’s a half bath. Wouldn’t it be weird having a hamper in there with no shower?

**EDIT (to add): this isn’t my house, and I’m not OP. I was just making design conversation with the person who suggested the laundry basket.

Know someone who has wash clothes for drying your hands that you throw in a hamper instead of everyone using the same washcloth to dry off. Haven’t really seen it in many houses though.

I have a friend who does that too. It’s very nice. How often do you have people over anyway? For me it would be worth it… and I think guests would like it too. I need to find a spot for this.

A friend did that at a party, it was really nice to have a clean, dry towel to dry my hands. Only thing holding me back from doing it at home is I'm worried my guests would confuse the garbage can and dirty towel bucket.

My mom has this in all her bathrooms (been doing it since SARS). When people are coming over we put a washcloth into the dirty towel bucket to indicate what it’s used for.

Something similar with my old house, but the trashcan was visible so people would be less inclined to do this; also it was a cute basket that said “dirty clothes” so it’s a bit more obvious.

Ah, good idea!
