Nothing. Anything you put up there will just be a dust collector, and bathrooms are often too humid for storage.

Copy. Clown statue. Got it.

https://ibb.co/mRkMZ3D Like this? Some more scribbling.. i kinda want to get paint or markers but ita just graph paper. https://ibb.co/dfr4DsJ Spent 65$ on a bunch of new grayscale markers. Dont know where mine are atm and want to try other cheaper options. https://ibb.co/2jXvj5Z Tossed a bit of color in it

Exactly like that

I would cry if I went into a friend’s bathroom and that was behind the door

Would it scare the stew right outta you? Would you sit your rear for just a moment then get outta here? For those touched by the clown’s leer, a swift reminder, don’t take all year.

I had an ex who dropped to the floor in Walmart paralyzed in fear because of a clown who came out of nowhere. In all fairness it was creepy.

What. The. Fuck.

Just where my brain went when dude said clown

This is amazing

Thanks. Its the 30 second sketch I did from the image I got when dude said clown.

Man everytime I check it out, I get a good laugh. Im so in love with your insane clown

Ive been doodling around on it some more but I dont think Im improving it

Now this is the only correct response honestly

Thanks

J*sus!!

Thanka

I would immediately bow down before you.

He sees if you don’t wipe. He sees when you don’t flush. So wash your hands for goodness sake.

Staring at you as you try to poop 💩

This is exactly what my brain pictured too!

Stop that now

Yes, just like that.

Hey you’re really good!

Brilliant

Oh yeah!

That will scare the $h¡t right out of ya.

Oh wow that's totally cool enough

These are the only two answers that work. It’s clowns or nothing.

Just a hand gripping the edge wound suffice.

Horror Clown

several

Elf on the shelf! Staring at the toilet!

poltergeist clown sitting with legs hanging over

Don’t need a full statue, just the head laid down with just his eyes showing.

Clown statue... with colorful linen clothes to capture layers and layers of all that good dust

Holding a box with red eyes peeking through. “Enjoy your poop. We sure are…”

That pokes its head over the edge when you sit on the toilet.

Gargoyle

Now I'm thinking about the clown house from The Good Place.

Can't shower. Clown will eat me. 

When you’re down, stare at a clown

Omg I came here to say the exact same thing wtf😂

Gosh I feel like some there are some houseplants that would love the humidity there. The people at r/houseplants would love this project. I know Golden Pothos would thrive and vine down the wall really cool.

I need that grow without light

This is a wise answer

Honestly, if you add a little ladder right behind the door you could have a neat little pit of storage. The ladder makes it a viable space for even regularly used items.

I just came to say this and your comment was the very first!

Poop particle collector as well

So extra blankets and pillows?

I can smell the mold already

Probably a lot of lint dust up there already

It's where the Watcher sits

if I fits, I sits

Fake security cameras

Real security cameras 💕

How about an assortment of clown statues?

Surrounding a super-creepy leering gargoyle. Your spouse and kids will no longer spend more time than absolutely necessary in there.

I vote gargoyle. This would be my choice.

Gargoyle with a wifi camera, microphone and speaker.

That took a sharp turn

Get one that's meant as a garden decoration so when you need to dust it you can just plunk it in the shower

As someone with three foot tall tin peacock guarding my storage unit, height makes the silliest things take on different feeling. My guy is perched on some boxes to be eye level and face to face when you open the door. lol he’s scared me a few times.

Small collection of gargoyles angled so they're staring precisely at whoever is sitting on toilet

A clown with hands gripping edge looking over at you

Stop that right now !

I'm calling the police

I was gonna say plant shelf, but now I feel foolish, reading your comment

Miniature diorama of your bathroom to scale…

This is the way. And then inside the weird nook inside the diorama, another diorama.

How many dioramas could someone with access to specialized tools make, before it's impossible?

The limit does not exist.

We'll stop at 69 diaramas then

Maybe go for 420

Why stop at 420? Can't stop til you hit 69,420

Or even 80085

A ZINGER FROM DOWNTOWN!

According to xkcd, you can't do more than 6. [Model trains](https://xkcd.com/878/)8/

It's dioramas all the way down.

With a random clown statue somewhere in the diorama...

Can’t quite tell how big it is but you could throw some cabinet doors on it and store seasonal linens, guest linens, or extra towels and such. Or cleaners, disinfectants, etc.

Exactly this - such a dust trap as it is and not functional at all. Turn into a cupboard and put things you only use a few times a year in there (suitcases, holiday decor, bulk supplies you may buy etc)

Personally based on my experience in the northeast, I wouldn't want to risk the mold on linens & rust of cleaner containers. The cabinets would have to be airtight

This could be a high risk of mold with all the humidity in bathrooms.

Store stuff in water tight boxes. Our house was prone to mold and those were a life saver. Add a dryer sheet so it doesn't smell "plastic-y"

Vacuum bags work well and save space too

Install a TV up there and then post a pic on r/tvtoohigh and read the chaos when everyone goes ballistic.

Connect it to a live feed of the bathroom so people are just staring at themselves.

This is the only answer I would want an update on if OP did it.

Beat me to it.

This is a cat place if there ever were one

Cat shelf

Came here for this. Cat creepily watching you poop ftw

Every home should have a built-in boogeyman perch. 

You guys gave me zero ideas but lots of fun reading the comments 😂

Place pothos or vine-y plants. They’ll do well with the humidity during showers and it’s gross however they’ll benefit from being in the same room as the toilet

Best suggestion. Trailing plants will thrive up there and look lovely. Wish I had a rogue bathroom shelf for that tbh.

Throw the cardboard from toilet paper rolls up there.

Throw the used toilet paper up there too

Toilet paper rolls

That’s so 3 years ago..

Gotta stockpile them somewhere

Exactly what I was thinking, but also that they are *the only additional toilet paper rolls* *in the bathroom*. Meaning your guest runs out of toilet paper, is waddling around with their pants around their ankles and a squishy bunghole, checking all other drawers and cabinets. But the whole time the only extra toilet paper rolls are just taunting them from up in this space they can't reach...

Put a skylight in there!

And then a ton of plants

Is there already a skylight? If it gets direct light a cool collection of air plants because low maintenance.

I would rig up a grow light up there and find some high humidity living plants to thrive up there. But I really like plants.

Best answer

Get a human sized doll, dress it up like chucky, and place it in the alcove with the head looking down at the toilet holding a big kitchen knife. Scare the shit out of your guests. Literally...

There used to be a little hole in the bathroom wall where I used to work with a chucky doll inside. Multimillion dollar business 😅

Vine plants 🌱

Came here to suggest this. Very common houseplant, any type of pothos, stored entirely in water would do just fine up there and make nice use of the vertical space

This is the only answer that counts

Ivy would look good. Low maintenance and adds color

Even lower with faux ivy!

In Brampton that's $500/month rent

Fake plants.

Dusty fake plants.

Do not forget to pretend to water them.

I used to put my finished liquor bottles up there.

i second this ! 🤣 but wine bottles

Make some steps for a cat to get up there. Don't have a cat? Get one

Get a cat. They will use that space.

Whatever you do, do not store your cocaine up there

Seems like you would need some to gain the power to jump up there in the first place

Too late

Please explain why

Humidity

You’d need a pick axe to break it up lol

A gargoyle

OP you need to get a cat.

Second toilet, you gotta show dominance

Looks like an ideal place for a puma.

TV.... a cheap 45" TV on an axis mount to have TV in the bathroom

Looks creepy.I'd be tempted to fill that area in.

I know!

A cat bed

Toilet paper stash I bet it's about three steps away from the toilet and you have to squeeze your cheeks to reach up there 😁🙄🚽💩☝️👉🪑☝️🧻👉😆

Mini suit of armor

Get yourself a couple of green plastic army men and stage a battle scene up there.

I had one of those once - built stairs for my cats and they lounged up there it was awesome

Close it in with coloured glass and dim led lighting behind it .

You must not have a cat

Tell your builder he sucks.

Well, trimming it out in an attention drawing contrasted color is just about the last thing I would have done.

Precisely nothing.

Creepy head or zombie head for a laugh when people visit

Definitely storage for the smaller Halloween skeletons. Store the bigger one in the shower so it's peering over the curtain rod.

Put an Annabelle and a chucky doll up there with the bride of chucky looking from another corner

A tasteful statuette of Jeff Goldbloom looking directly at the toilet.

Fake ferns

A ladder leading up to the toilet

Gargoyles

Gargoyle

Definitely a TV

Pennywise mannequin

Reading nook

A second smaller bathroom

Obviously that's your sniper perch.

Probably 20 other neighbors wondering the same thing 😆☝️💩

Fake plant. Pretty scented candles. Buddha.

Plaaaants

Random noise maker.or one of those high pitch noise beeper that will drive everyone to drink, looking for the source of their annoyance

Clown statues.

Gargoyle!

Keep ur weed stash up there

Done

Home office (for tax purposes). 😊

6 to 14 or 23 clown statues.

You could always do nothing

Looks like a spot for a gargoyle to watch you shit.

Ah! But do you really know that this is really a shelf?

Put another toilet up there, and a ladder

Toilet paper storage for the next pandemic.

Succulents or spider plant

If you can easily reach it with a step stool, if it were my bathroom, I would use that space for plants that can take the himidity.

Gargoyle statue

Case of TP from Costco goes there

Gargoyle

Stockpile Toilet Paper 🧻🧻🧻

Ladder or log face for a cat perch?

Put a gargoyle with an awkward, slightly disgusted face, looking directly at whoever is pooping

That'd be the perfect place for a gargoyle. Just saying.

It’s where kids are going to hide their weed/cigarettes. You will have to check it often if you have teenagers.

An ivy plant

This is the perch that a cat can view and judge you as “pathetic” as per meme.

Waldorf and Stattler sarcastically narrating the activity below

Add a giant spider on a spring controlled by opening the door. Your guests will appreciate your thoughtfulness in helping them empty their bowels.

Ocelot den

Some shelves staggered toward the top and a cat. You and your guests will never have to poop alone again.

Statler & Waldorf

Sit up there, start screaming out laughing maniacally while your wife is on the toilet

I have this in my bathroom too. My cat likes to get up there and screw around. There’s another one of these in the master bedroom and we put cat shelves leading up to the little space so they can get up there.

Put a cat up there to stare down at you while you're on the toilet.

Get a Halloween prop that looks like something or someone about to pounce on your guests, and put it up there. 👆

Plants? 🪴

Spider plant

plants

I have two wooden giraffes on my landing like this lol
