Top of the bathroom cabinet

Lotus flower tealight holder from Lavender Room and bevelled mirrored tray from Marks and Spencer

I found our stainless steel two-door mirrored bathroom cabinet on eBay for less than half the price of high street stores. The lotus flower tealight holder is from Lavender Room. The bevelled mirrored tray is from Marks & Spencer and contains flower shaped candles that were a gift bought for me from Thailand.

Bathroom dispensers

From left to right:

The clear acrylic dispenser is from John Lewis and is filled with pale duck egg coloured hand moisturiser.

I think the beveled edges and classic shape of the mirrored-centre soap dispenser from Marks & Spencer helps create a clean, timeless look for the bathroom. I especially love that the etched pattern is in a light duck egg colour, too.

The small enamelled canister is part of the Newbury range from Restoration Hardware and is perfect for keeping small bits and bobs in.

Bathroom scales

Bathroom scales; I love them and hate them! I spent ages looking for scales that were both stylish and functional, yet also not too obtrusive. I eventually went for the highly accurate scales for weight loss and fat reduction from Tanita.

The flooring is natural stone with pale grey grout.

On the shelf

Newbury enamel tissue box cover from Restoration Hardware and mirrored soap dish from Marks and Spencer

On the shelf above the sink, the tissue box is housed in an enamel tissue box cover, part of the Newbury collection from Restoration Hardware. In the beveled edge mirrored soap dish from Marks & Spencer are two delightful delicate carved roses, scented with a pretty rose perfume, both from Lavender Room. When the scent runs out you just add a few drops of scented oil.

The brick tiles are butted together with chrome curved edge tile.

Wall towel storage

I have loved the way hotels store towels for years now and I really wanted to store my towels in a similar way. I didn't want to spend a lot of money and wanted something simple and unobtrusive. The pictured towel rack from Next fit the bill perfectly. The stone spot towels from Cath Kidston, coupled with the light and dark silver sage coloured ones from Restoration Hardware complete the look!
