What I like about this Cast Iron 6 Bar Organizer from Pottery Barn is the multiply functionality and simple classic style!

Not only could you install the bar in your bathroom to hang assorted towels and robes; but I personally would install the cast iron bar in my closet as a quick and handy tool to hang my jeans, ironed pants, scarves or belts!

The uses are truly limitless. 

Plus only as an “internet only” special the price is currently reduced from $59.99 to $49.99!

I think the Bath Safeguard invention is very interesting. I tend to be a visual person by nature, and I for one would prefer for the Bath Safeguard to illuminate and tell me the temperature of my bath in lieu of me sticking my palm or foot into scalding waters.

The Bath Safeguard was designed by Kai Chen. Basically it is a neat little electronic bath plug that emits a color glow reflecting the current conditions of the water. When not in use, place it back on the magnetic induction recharger base.

The plug itself is made of waterproof silicon, has built in thermal sensors, LED lights, electronic induction charger and a color reference chart on the base that let’s you know what temperature the color emitted signifies.

So what do you guy think? I think it’s a pretty innovative and nifty invention.

Bamboo is a beautiful and notoriously strong building material that I have noticed is becoming more and more popular in home decor. Check out the following examples of bamboo in all its wonderful forms!

Kennedy Bamboo Curtains

These natural bamboo grommet-top panels will add a modern look to your window. They also add enough light without compromising your privacy. Hang on decorative rod or pole. These curtains are made of 100% bamboo which also happens to be a natural and completely renewable resource.

I love modern design but even I agree that it can seem cold at times, implementing touches of nature goes a long way in adding warmth and humanity to your otherwise icy decor.

Currently sold at JCPenney.com: WAS $85.00 NOW $34.99

Bamboo Bathtub Caddy with Bookstand and Wine Glass Holder

This beautifully designed caddy also has a place to hang your razor and your loofah, as well as a built-in draining soap dish. It adjusts to fit most tubs, and the bamboo is water resistant, which means this will remain as beautiful as if it were brand new.

I like how they chose to implement this product with a good book and a glass of red wine! Ahhh, makes me want to take a long sudsy bath…

Sold at Delight Networks for $46.50

So here are some cool and affordable options:

Frontgate - Shower Radio

My first choice is the Shower Dispenser with Shower Radio offered by Frontgate. It’s a beautiful dispenser AND has a waterproof radio attached so you can groove to tunes whilst you shower! There are two 10 oz chambers that dispense just the right amount of shampoo and conditioner attached to the radio, its fashioned in exclusive champage finish and has see-thru chambers so its easy to see when you need to refill. No tools are required for installation, mounting adhesives and silicone glue are included.

Best of all, it’s on SALE: originally $29.50 Now: $14.50

Good Deals - Shower Radio

The Shower Radio, with its easy-grip design and large buttons lets you tune AM/FM stations and adjust volume with wet hands. Its large, 3-inch speaker provides clear sound fidelity even over running water. The radio can be easily hung from the shower-head or towel rack with its built-in hook handle.

Sold at Good Deals for $13.99

Hammacher Schlemmer - Best Waterproof Shower Radio

Last but by no means least is the “Best Waterproof Shower Radio” offered by Hammacher Schlemmer. It’s the priciest of the three options but boasts the best quality and durability.

In their own words Hammacher states:

“For the fifth consecutive year, our tests proved this shower radio superior to its competitors, not only for being impervious to shower spray, but also for its excellent sound quality. Unlike some other shower radios that can be difficult to manage when wet, this one has large buttons and a fluted, secure-grip design that is easy to handle and operate..”

This model retails for $59.95

I leave the choice in your very wise and capable hands!

I think it’s adorable and fun, makes the perfect gift for the chocolate lover in every family! It’s a Japanese import (those ever creative geniuses) made of 100% cotton, and is 2×4 feet long. It’s sold by fredflare.com for only $35.00!

If that doesn’t satisfy you taste buds, you can always go the more conventional route and purchase more traditional bath towels.

I am one of those people, who when visiting a friend, relative or a complete stranger, and I return from the bathroom, you will find that the toilet paper is right side up! The shredded end should be overlaying the roll and neatly folded there, held by gravity in place. This is the correct position people, there is a method to my madness. This way when you are done, you tear your sheet off and it doesn’t continue to hang there or unwind for 5 more inches looking dirty and discarded.

Kohler Devonshire Toilet Tissue Holder - $27.89

See that is how a roll of toilet paper should look. This is what I mean about the toilet paper being right side up, who doesn’t know this??

So this is a nice little number that is classy and polished. I mean it’s toilet paper holders folks, not rocket science. Really depends on your pet peeves and preferences. The toilet roll matches the Devonshire faucets and fixtures and is a great price.

Kohler Memoirs® Classic Toilet Tissue Holder - Was $143.40 Now $102.38

This number is more expensive but you pay for better quality. This model is made with solid brass and is inspired by faucets from the 1920’s and 1930’s. It is made to endure a long life and is quite elegant.

Kohler Purist Tissue Holder - Was $81.61 Now $65.30

I personally like this little guy. Gives me no anxiety about the toilet roll being right side up, and it is super easy to refill. Now instead of your boyfriend, husband or children leaving the refill on top of the old holder, now they can literally just drop the fresh roll onto the holder (I bet they still leave the refill by the sink….ugh!!).

Kohler Revival® Double Toilet Tissue Holder - Was $248.34 Now $217.54

Last but not least for you folks that just can’t use enough toilet paper, there is the double tissue dispenser. Women in particular will find the additional roll helpful, especially during certain times of the month… enough said. It is beautifully crafted and resists scratching, corrosion and tarnishing.

The one lesson I want you to walk away with is that THE TOILET PAPER MUST ALWAYS BE RIGHT SIDE UP!! If you need me to show you or want me to fix it send me an email and I will!
