Plus, at just $40 for two, these cabinets are an incredibly budget-friendly way to tackle your bathroom clutter once and for all.
Tips to make the TRONES cabinet work in your bathroom
One of the most important parts of installing the TRONES cabinet is finding the right spot for it, especially when space is at a priority. Try to look at your bathroom with a new eye. Is there space on the wall behind the bathroom door, or maybe across from the toilet? Is there anything you can easily move to make additional room? The other element to consider is the layout of the cabinets. If you're especially tight on space, consider stacking the cabinets one on top of the other to create vertical storage. If you have a little more room, TRONES cabinets look great next to each other in a horizontal line on the wall. Wherever you decide to position them, we recommend installing them into the wall studs for extra hold.
There are a lot of fun ways to decorate your basic TRONES shoe cabinet. For a finished look, use construction adhesive to attach a piece of stained or painted wood to the top of the cabinet. Don't love the TRONES standard white or black colors? Apply peel-and-stick or even faux brick wallpaper to the front of the cabinet doors to blend into your decor. Add door pulls for a complete elevated look. Or, to make getting ready simple in the blur of the morning rush, apply decals to the cabinet doors to easily find what you need. If you need help keeping the cabinets' contents organized, consider picking up a few of SUNNERSTA containers from IKEA. These inexpensive bins fit neatly inside and can hang off the backside of the cabinet for easy organization.
