Quick! Decorating help

So this is your powder room/guest bathroom? I would keep all toilet paper in the cupboard under the sink for sure. The toilet paper pyramid made me lol . I like the basket but not for that space. I don't really consider the empty countertop "awkward". I actually kind of like it - makes the room look big.

Honestly I think it's fine if you leave it completely bare for now, easier to clean. You could put a bottle of lotion there, a vase with flowers, a little decorative glass bowl with seashells, a decorative tissue box for guests. Also, maybe another towel ring on the wall next to the sink would be useful. And you could put some art on the wall on the left side of the counter. Keep accessories white or teal/blue to go with your color scheme.

You could roll a few fresh white hand towels in there. Sort of a spa look.

I fell down a rabbit hole of looking at bathroom counters. You could do a little silver tray with a tissue box, some lotions, and rolled towels on it.  The kind of basket I picture for a bathroom is more like a seagrass-type thing. You could also get a pretty countertop towel holder to take up some space on the counter, like this:

What about some decorative glass pieces, multiple height candle holders, or like a glass terrarium? You could get any of those at Michael's for pretty cheap.

I worry about glass/marbles/shells because of the number of kids that will be using this bathroom unsupervised.

@moonbeam where is that stand from? It's cute!

My mom keeps a smaller basket of rolled hand towels on her counter that looks cute.

I think I did a bad job describing. I meant stuff like this. But yeah, glass may not be the best idea.
