So to finish off a month of bathing belles, we end on a fun note. Literally. This countertop basin from Aston Matthews is a little different from the norm (and spot the wallpaper in the background – see yesterday’s object…
Bathing Belles
Objects Of Design #183: Bathroom Wallpaper
It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of wallpaper and in a bathroom, which is traditionally an area of stark white lines and little colour, a wall of paper is a great way to add some drama. These flamingoes…
Objects Of Design #182: Ceramic Light Pull
Still on the finishing touches. Those white plastic light pulls quickly become horribly grubby and are hard to clean. The handle is too small for a hand which means that the string is also nasty. So, this: china and therefore…
Objects Of Design #181: Pretty Paisley Silver Towel Rail
Details people details. Making an effort with the little things will make your heart sing a little bit every time you catch sight of them. This pretty towel rail just announces that a little bit more effort has been made.…

Objects Of Design #176: Recycled Bath Rack
For those of you who prefer a more rustic look rather than sleek contemporary to your bathrooms, this bath rack is a great find. Made from old floorboards, it will sit perfectly on an old clawfoot bath or equally well…
Objects Of Design #175: Mr Gio Ladder
Everyone’s familiar with the idea of using an old wooden ladder as a towel rack but this takes that one step further. Somehow it could only have been made by an Italian – they are often the first to embrace…
