Anywho back to the point- more storage needed. I registered for these awesome fluffy towels, I love them, they make me feel like I'm at the spa. But who knew they would take up twice as much space in my closet?!? Actually I should say, who knew my old ones were so crappy.
Closet space is like gold around my apartment and these new towels are taking up alot! Enter the over the door storage shelf
LOVE this idea!
That Martha, of course all these photos are from her. She has the best ideas.
I like storing extra supplies over the door too. All my Extreme Couponing hording products could have a new home.
A little less pretty and a little more towels and this would be perfect for me
I also like this towel bar idea. Unfortunately I don't think the husband would hang the towels properly (by properly I mean folded in 3rds the long way and then folded in half to hang, you know what I'm talking about right?) and the messy look might would drive me nuts. I think I might have to stick with the hooks that we have. Bummer.
I do think that some over the door shelves are in my future though. I have to find some cute wood brackets now. (second note to self, find cute wood brackets this weekend)
Happy Weekend everyone!

Love this!
They're such a great idea -- I had the same inspiration after seeing those Martha photos! I love mine.
What a great idea! We don't have a linen closet in our place, which is so aggravating. This is a great solution, although I'd need a step ladder to reach them!
I love the over the door shelf. I would just go to Ikea to get the supplies. They have a great selection of hanging shelf type things.
love the over the door shelves! try van dykes restorers. they have tons of brackets
I am sure you are a very nice person. But if you mention your husband, hubby, hubbo, etc., one more time someone should stick a fork in your eye. We get it! You're married! You won a man! You're a winner! You've arrived.
Please. I'm enjoying the blog except for you referencing that ALL THE TIME.
My husband made a great shelf in our old kitchen which shelved my cook books. :)
Now I am trying to find a spot.

Have a great weekend!

What a great idea. I'm lucky to have plenty of storage but think that a shelf above the door would make a good opportunity to accessorize-maybe with seasonal items.
Just like me after our wedding. The interior of our house has changed to accomodate our gifts and my wife's old belonging since she only moved into my house right after we married. It's challenging and fun at the same time.
Love the shelf idea!! Thanks for sharing it.
And good luck with finding space to put everything. 7+ years later and I still have wedding gifts that don't have a permanent home.
I'm installing one THIS weekend!!
I love the little nook above the door. Perfect for some extra storage.
As a fellow small space dweller, I definitely appreciate the over the door shelf! Also agree about male abilities to use the towel rack properly. I'm lucky if ours get slung over the doorway instead of on the wood floor...
These are fabulous ideas - and I so agree on the stacked towel racks. The effect is totally ruined when you don't fold properly!
Leave it to Martha. I love it all. And yes, the right way to fold a towel is in thirds then in half over the bar. My hubs doesn't do it either.
Fabulous idea! I'm going to tab this for the future!
