Hang-Up Job

If you're at all like us, you're a hotel toiletry kleptomaniac who can't resist slipping every mini bottle of suds into your carry-on. When you arrive home, you carefully add the new additions to your arsenal of bath products (cleanser/scrub/lotion/miracle-in-a-bottles that are picked up every week), which dutifully line your sink, toilet tank, and bathtub like little soldiers. Just us? Well, we came up with a quick, easy way to keep all of your potions at hand while keeping them out of the way.

"Tower of yuck"? I love it! :-)

This solution could be useful, but I could see short-statured folks having trouble with it. I guess you could extend the top with a chain of some sort.

The shower curtain is amazing. Where can I buy one?

OR... you can color coordinate your bathroom to the color of the products you collect. i think that people gravitate to certain colors in products (especially in the bathroom) as a lot of them are associated with smells
i gravitiate towards green smells. so maybe i should redecorate my bathroom.
hee hee!

I love the way you made everythng work together its great and looks rather chic. Its about time someone came up with an idea to remove all the clutter from on top of the sink. I love it and want to thank you for the great tips on how to make my small restroom look more inviting.

Great idea, thanks!

If you think that the colors of products are an issue, you could always "line" the basket with a washcloth or hand towel that matches the decor. Just a thought.

Hmm, sounds like a wonderful incentive to de-clutter! Great idea.

It works if every item you pick up colour coordinates with your bathroom. If not...it could look like a tower of yuck in no time.

where is the sink from in the photo?
