My bathroom

[Siebrie]

I thought I'd just describe my bathroom, feel free to comment!

It's 6 x 8 ft. Against the 6ft back wall is an in-built bath with handheld shower. It has a wall-to-wall shower curtain (Ikea, € 1.50).

On the bath rim:
expensive shampoo and conditioner (for me, once a week) - half price after rebate
cheap shampoo (for me, once a week) - free with hotel stay on employee rate
expensive shower gel (for me, weekends) - birthday gift
general shower gel (for dh, daily) - bought on sale
cheap shower gel (for me, weekdays) - free with hotel stay on employee rate
baby bath toys - birth gift from friends for dd

In front of the bath, to the right hand wall:

horizontal axis top loader washing machine - the only size that fits in that space. € 400, bought with parents' money, paid off with first salary.

Between the washing machine and the other 6ft wall:

On the shelf above the wash basin:

I would love to have a bathroom like yours. Especially w/a washing machine, how convenient!!!!

Sounds so organized and ditto to the washing machine.

Have you realized the size? I HAVE to be organized.

I rummaged through my drawers and found that I have a lot of samples, mainly facial creams and body lotions. I put these little foil baggies (most are 2''x2'') in a nice bowl, ready to use. It will be some time before I have to buy facial cream again!
