23 Bathroom Counter Decor Ideas That Are Practical and Cute

A wooden riser is excellent bathroom decor. Use it for your soap dispenser and some form of greenery.

I love this miniature olive tree. I heard it’s available at Hobby Lobby, but I’ve listed some olive branches to recreate this bathroom decor for now.

2. Use a bathroom countertop tray

It’s beautiful to break up a white bathroom with warm wooden tones.

You can easily do so with a natural wood serving tray.

When it comes to bathroom organizers and trays, don’t be afraid to think beyond the bathroom.

Fruit baskets and regular serving trays often are the best items for decorating your bathroom counter.

3. Faux tulips in a ceramic pitcher

The TikTok home decor community is raving about these faux white tulips.

They look surprisingly real and are perfect for decorating your bathroom.

Woven trays are a great base for your decor and bathroom accessories.

Use one tall eye-catching item, like the ceramic pitcher with the tulips.

Don’t forget that items like cotton balls and q-tips can become part of the decor when you place them in a cute canister.

4. Large vase with eucalyptus stems

Eucalyptus is a favorite when it comes to bathroom decorating!

If you use real eucalyptus, it’s amazing to hang over your shower head.

Then it spreads a divine smell throughout the bathroom while showering.

The minimalist look of eucalyptus also works well for decor!

For longevity, you can use fake eucalyptus when using the stems strictly for decor.

8. Modern bathroom countertop with two-tier vanity stand

This is my favorite small bathroom counter idea to recreate! Get a modern two-floor vanity stand for necessities like soap and hand towels.

It looks super cute and saves space at the same time.

Choose your hardware: metal, black, or gold, for a put-together bathroom look!

I love how the gold hardware of these soap dispensers adds a feeling of luxury to the bathroom.

Gold hardware pairs well with Turkish cotton handtowels; it’s a perfect balance if you ask me :).

10. Bathroom counter storage alternative

Some bathroom counters don’t have enough space for even a soap dispenser!

So you must be creative with other storage spots.

The space above the toilet is great for hanging a unique floating shelf.

Go for a hexagon, round, or diamond shape floating shelf.

A shelf over your toilet decorates your bathroom and provides space for toiletries, lotions, and other essentials you use in the bathroom.

One simple and effective way to decorate your bathroom sink is with a chic tray.

White marble is timeless and pairs well in a modern and minimalist bathroom.

Decorate the tray with a small plan, stylish canisters, and soaps.

When your counter space is small, carefully choose the items you keep here!

Other spaces in the bathroom make up for the lack of counter space.

Don’t be afraid to use the toilet top and shelves to create extra space for storage and decor.

When your bathroom counter is tiny, using a mirror with shelf space is a genius solution.
