Well, I sortta bought it. IKEA had some cabinet, I forgot what it was for but I suspect perhaps for old fashioned VHS videos, or perhaps books. It was the exact size I had available (8X12). It was way too tall and with silly shelves/drawers and such. I did not install any of that, and also took a saw to it to make it fit. It now sits at some 32" tall.
I installed a glass shelf for the brushes to conserve light, some small boards made soap shelves and razor shelves.
Come to think of it, I also made a barber pole for it, but I never installed it due to lack of space

Thanked: 31
Finally got my den finished. Took me a week, but was worth it. Was a good way to use a corner. It may look too close to the shower, but all steam flows out into bedroom qiuckly (for now, no doors yet. Only been building house for four years.) Haven't shaved with a straight for a week and broke down and shaved with a DE 2 days ago. Can't wait to shave in the morning!

I feel your pain. If there's one thing we do well in blighty it's small bathrooms.
We bought our house and ran out of storage before we'd finished moving in.
Mirror off the wall, mirrored cabinet on the wall. It has 3 shelves and I have 1, I'll die before I give it up!
A week later, pedestal sink out and vanity unit (sink with cupboard under it) in. I have half a shelf and, well, as above. I'm not giving it up, I don't care how hard she tries!

Thanked: 2Catrent It looks like you have some Hawleywoods Layrite products in there, that is wonderful stuff, I use it in my barber shop on a daily basis. Great setup you have.

Thanked: 1So this may be a really stupid question, but once you melt the soap into the Wally World Jars, how do you use the soap? You're not making lather in them right?? I feel really dumb, but the answer is not coming to me!
