Efficient Layout and Design
When you have a small master bathroom, ideally, you should start with the design and layout of the space to make it work best. For example, if you have a long and narrow bathroom, put the tub at the very end and install a long vanity and countertop with plenty of storage underneath.
This is also the time to consider some built-in storage. Get creative. Use recessed shelving or pull-out vertical storage. Maybe put the tub on a platform with room for drawers underneath.
Most bathrooms use one of around 15 standard layouts. If your space is unusual, go with a layout that fits your specific dimensions. Find an expert in building efficient layouts for small spaces to get the best possible results for your specific room and needs.
Illuminating Solutions: LED Mirrors
Lighting is one of the best ways to make small spaces look larger than they really are. Mirrors are also great as they bounce light around the room, maximizing the lighting you do have already. Put these two tricks together and you have yourself a powerhouse of illusion.
WarmlyYours' LED mirrors are just the thing to help you make your small master bathroom more masterful. All our LED mirrors have touch power buttons that are completely flush with the mirror's surface for a sleek design. They come in various shapes and sizes to fit your style and your space. Plus, with an LED mirror, your makeup will never look better.

Heated Bathroom Floors by WarmlyYours
Having a heated bathroom floor has a lot of benefits for small spaces. It also provides a touch of luxury to make your bathroom a pint-sized retreat from the world outside. Let's start with the space-saving benefits.
There are many ways to heat a bathroom. However, not all of them are ideal for small spaces. Having a radiator not only takes up space but becomes an eyesore and can potentially be harmful if touched. Similar issues affect baseboard heating.
An electric heated floor is easy to install under almost any floor type and you only have to account for the thermostat on the wall and a minimal floor height increase (generally an additional ⅜” under tile). It's also more energy efficient than forced air or other options. It uses electrical resistance to generate heat. The heat then radiates through the floor and/or other solid objects causing the heat to dissipate less quickly as well.
It's also a huge luxury to never have to step out of the shower onto a cold floor. You can even heat the shower floor or a shower bench for added comfort. Learn more about our heated bathroom floors or get a quote today.
Fog-Free Mirrors with Mirror Defoggers
Don't you hate getting out of the shower and going over to the mirror only to find that you can't see a thing because it's completely fogged over? The smaller the bathroom, the bigger a problem this tends to be. The steam gets trapped, and the mirrors become useless.
Well, no more. WarmlyYours' mirror defoggers get rid of this problem completely. ClearlyYou™ Mirror Defoggers come in all shapes and sizes to fit your mirror and they are install-ready. The process is simple, and the effect is amazing.
Real luxury is often about the little things. While this is one small change in your bathroom, it can make a huge difference in your day-to-day life. Take a look at our ClearlyYou™ Mirror Defoggers to see if they're right for you.
Radiant Heat Panels for Cozy Warmth
Small master bathroom ideas lists often forget about heating. They usually just assume there's a set method in place already. However, all the top ideas for small master bathroom designs include not wasting floor space, mounting things on the wall, and multifunction elements.
WarmlyYours' radiant heat panels combine all these elements. They are wall or ceiling mounted keeping them completely out of the way. They also come in mirrored panels to double the function and take up zero added space. Additionally, these panels can be paired with towel bar accessories to turn them into towel warmers. They're perfect for small spaces.
Our radiant heat panels use infrared heating to maximize efficiency and minimize costs. They heat objects in the room for long-lasting heat and heat rooms faster than any other option. Check out WarmlyYours' radiant heat panel offerings to find the right one for your space.
Creative Storage Ideas
The less space you have, the more creative you have to get. Storage is the perfect way to get more bang for your buck. Here are some creative storage solutions you can try.
- Floating Shelves: You can have more storage in a small room when it doesn't take up floor space. Floating shelves are the perfect way to do that.
- Recessed Storage: Recessed storage allows you to create negative space to store things without taking space out of the room. You can do this in the shower as well to store your soaps and shampoos.
- Don't Waste Any Space: If you have any awkward corners or space under, next to, or behind the built-in items like the tub, toilet, or sink, find a way to use it.
- Built-Ins: Built-in storage is a great way to save space when possible.
- Hang In There: When there's limited space, getting hanging storage options, like over the bathroom door, can utilize space that would go to waste.
- Add Hooks: Put hooks in the bathroom and hang baskets and bins from them.
- Use Containers: There are all kinds of storage containers made for maximizing space. They have step-like options to store rows of shampoos, soaps, hair care products, and more while seeing them all clearly. They have double or triple-deck bins and shelves made to go on the bathroom sink. See which options work for you.
Vertical Storage Options
In small spaces, there isn't much floor space to take advantage of. However, if you use the vertical space more effectively, you might not even notice. Instead of a short shelf or cabinet, get a floor-to-ceiling version. The space over the toilet is almost always wasted. They have storage shelves made to go around it or just install some shelves over it. Going vertical is the ideal way to make use of the space you do have.
Multifunctional Furniture
Try to make sure every piece of furniture has a dual purpose. The vanity can have drawers or hide baskets. An ottoman with a lid is perfect for hidden storage. Make use of your mirror. You can get a medicine cabinet with a mirrored front or a mirror that has a shelf underneath. Anything can work double-duty.
Towel Warmers for Luxurious Comfort
A towel warmer can also be a dual solution. Instead of having your towels on shelves or in a closed storage unit, hang them on a wall-mounted towel warmer. It will save space and make grabbing a towel a heavenly-warm experience.
Imagine walking out of the shower and wrapping a toasty towel around you. Sounds pretty cozy right? They also dry your towels when you're done using them, so you don't have to worry about tossing them in the dryer or risk any mold growth on them. Intrigued? Learn more about our options.
