Shaving related? Well, I shave in the bathroom, and if I don't do this right my wife may never let me back in there! Really, I guess it comes down to storage. Not "shaving den" level of storage, but finding a good place for my shaving things, plus for the wife's 2.3 tons of $@#!.
We are buying a Cape Cod here in Virginia built in 1935. It has an upstairs attic which was finished in the 80's, so it's very liveable with a full bath there. Downstairs, there are 2 full baths. One is a standard bathroom with subway tile halfway up the wall (white with black trim) and a black/white basket weave tile floor. It has an old pedestal sink. Being so old (though in really good condition), it's not large by today's standards, so I'm having problems figuring out storage solutions. Pedestal sinks don't really lend themselves to attractive undersink storage, and there's not a lot of room for adding a cabinet. Has anyone conquered anything similar?
The other full bath downstairs is, well, tiny. It almost reminds me of something on a train... If you weigh more than 230, you may never get out. Or even in. I may end up claiming that one as my own when we don't have guests.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts, references, or solutions!
