Bathroom Counter Cleanup

July 8, 2009 By Michelle Barneck 3 Comments

This is my little guy’s bathroom. Being 19 months old, he doesn’t use it all that much so it has been the dumping ground for mommy’s “stuff” and my hair drying station. Poor sad ugly counter.

It was about time to clean it up and give it a 30 minute makeover with my new obsession of shopping my house. So, here it is in all its re-used glory!

Here are all the nitty gritty details of what things are and where they came from:

  1. How about some dead flower stems from the yard that look seaish (like how I made up that word?)
  2. Place them in a themey toothbrush holder. My little ones toothbrush has feet on it and will not fit anyway.
  3. Make a grouping in a bread basket, it will only hold about 5 rolls anyway.
  4. Add a striped sash that I bought with every intention of wearing and never did.
  5. An extra hand towel is nice and this one was just in the closet for when I washed the one on the towel rack.
  6. I took this goose from the sunflower arrangement someone gave me when I had my son. It used to have a plant in it. I killed it. Forgot that one in my brown thumb confession.
  7. The paper mache A from the Father’s Day shoot. It’s the first letter in my son’s name, so that worked out well.
  8. Random washcloth we got in a set for our wedding.
  9. Bears that were in here before, but now on a big piece of yard bark to make them look shipwrecked.

Now for a close up.

I am rather pleased with how it turned out if I do say so myself! I think it is a big improvement, and not just because the monster box of tampons is hidden. 😉

    I am super glad my counter isn’t the only counter on the block that looks like that! I have every intention of doing a counter make-over but I am “patiently” waiting for a finished master bath so I can organize more effectivly!

    ps. I think you should have worked that box of tampons into your cute decore! hahaha!

    Cute! I can stand clutter in a lot of places, but not on my bathroom counter.
