Makeshift Shelf For Bathroom Counter

A makeshift shelf for the bathroom counter, covered in contact paper.

I moved into an apartment that has almost no counter space, especially in the bathroom.

I took one of the spacers from a pressboard book case and cut it to fit the width of the back of the sink's counter. Then I covered two vegetable cans with contact paper, and then the board. It made a nice shelf for pretties against the back. Nothing would have fit, and now I don't have to worry about it!

N-JOY!

I love this idea. Will be perfect for our daughters bathroom. Will be visiting her soon and will fix it for her. What a surprise it will be for her and a big help too.

Thanks everyone. I am doing the same thing this week to my kitchen counter, only with blue and yellow paper. Another cool way to support shelving boards is glass jars filled with colored glass beads from the dollar tree, or buttons, spools of thread, or marbles. Anything small that you collect can be used, as well as colored water. N-JOY!

This was very creative. Great idea. I am going to do the same to my very small counter top in my bath! Thank you for submitting this.
