Thread: The Shave Den Again !!!!!

Just came accross these at Walmart this week:
I've been looking for something that would be a safe temporary holding place for the razor that I was going to use that day, and this may be it.
If it doesn't work for razors back to its original purpose of holding tooth brushes. $2.99 at Walmart .
I'm going to use a little adhesive to the backs of the suction cups, just in case!

You good sir just won idea of the year.
Well done!!!

we have 2 bathrooms, this one only gets uesed when I shave as my wife has the bigger shower in her bathroom

Here is a picture I took this afternoon of the Shaving Den. It is small but will hopefully grow this year.

BTW, where I have the SR is also a toothbrush holder and it was only $5. It's a good place to keep them in my opinion.

My razor holder is made of fleece and rests in the top drawer of my dresser (which is dedicated to razors, and a few razor related items...and a single condom). Perhaps not the sexiest storage system, but it keeps my precious blades safe and cozy.



The condom has an expiration date of some time in 1998...and I have no intentions of using it or getting rid of it. A barber informed me that traditionally condoms were distributed by barbers (as it was a discrete distribution point for such items)....so when I found this condom in an old box from my college days, it seemed fitting to put it with my razors

I dont know about distributing but barbers selling condoms yes, especially in the UK, i read this somewhere that after your haircut the barber would ask you Need something for the week-end? apparently this was code for buying condoms back in the day.

Well, I've always said that there is nothing like a photo of someone else's bathroom to get my juices flowing.

I have near two hundred razors floating around mostly in the bathroom but I don't have a photo.

We have a saying around here; if there is no pic then it didn't happen. Even though it didn't happen, I still have near two hundred razors. I need a secretary to keep mine in order. All the pics are very nice and thanks to everyone for keeping this artform alive. I guess that's what we are all about.

Precisely what I meant. I forget the phrase he used, but there was a clever code that was used...I wish I could recall it...

Did you buy that cabinet on the right somewhere? What exactly is it if you did?

Correction , brushes do fit behind the razors.
