I had to expand and move out of the Bathroom cabinet.

Added a shelving unit to my 1/2 bath where I shave 99% of the time
this one sits on the floor, about a foot wide, only 8" deep...maybe 5' tall?...two pieces, upper and lower cabinets
We found this shelving unit at Bed Bath and Beyond, after looking all over for something that would fit into the tiny space I have in this 1/2 bath. it's one of those kits you put together yourself, and the wood is nothing special...painted particle board, but it's cheap and cheerful ($70) and fits in this small speck of a room, but most of all, I now have somewhere to store brushes, A/S's, EdC's (&EdT's), towels and shave soaps and cream
and here's the lower half with the door open
another shot of the top half-
notice you don't see any razors on the shelves....I mainly shave with straight razors and I keep (store) them away from humidity, meaning I keep them in another room. I also shave in the master bedroom of the house (although not all that often)...I like the big basin sink in this bathroom yet there was not any shelfs to speak of other than the medicine cabinet and the top of the toilet tank, but with this new shelving unit, that's taken care of. Not sure what I'll keep in this cabinet but what I have in there will do for now
here's a shot of the basin sink in this bathroom
It's a bit cluttered in this photo but what I like about this sink is it's size...much larger than the sinks in our master bath, so I have a lot of room to dangle my straights off the side of the sink into the hot water. Yes!, I keep my sink full of hot water while I shave

Love it! Neat and efficient. Plus, easy to build! I made a shelf for short items, but didn't think to add holes for the razors. Mine are currently in toothbrush holders. Thanks for sharing this.

They are all looking nice and neat. My wife would be proud. (She is a neat freak!) I did not just say that out loud, did I!
My humble beginnings
Very nice start up.
I hope you have lots of room, because this will rapidly grow out of control! It alway does!!
I know, I'm hankering after some LaPerla GrigioPerla aftershave.
Target. That cabinet is only available on line.
Here is mine:
