If you are looking for more wall storage options for your bathroom, you are not alone! We are always on the hunt for simple, stylish, and affordable shelving. Today we are delighted to show you just how simple it is to make a hanging wall shelf. You could even make this a multiple shelf DIY as well. We love the look of natural cotton cording (macrame cord) and natural wood. It's timeless, while giving a look of Scandinavian design as well.
Adding some fresh greenery, candles, and pretty beauty products to this hanging shelf will elevate the look of the bathroom ... and give you more storage options, too!
