Master Bathroom week 5

[DebbiGall]

My bathroom is pretty small but I would like to get some new towels and wash cloths I saw at wally world and a new bath set I saw, that matches my new shower curtain.
it will take me about 15 minutes to clean it real good.
I got a snowman bath set last year after Christmas.
Can't wait to put it out

I found the perfect color bath linens for my master bath but they didn't have the matching face cloths. I'll go back and check again.

I did a major restocking last week which included toiletry items such as: shampoo
razor blades
moisturizer
foundation makeup
body wash
new heads for the electric toothbrushes (change them every Sept. & March), face cleanser
toothpaste
toilet paper
All bathrooms cleaners


Now that's done and I don't have to worry about it until March. LOL

Tomorrow I want to clean out the vanity & wall unit.

Good luck everyone. Keep up the great work.

Dont forget to get rid of old make up at this time as well. My small bath needs a good clean it that's about it. I got rid of nail polish and perfume at my last yard sale. My tiny linen closet won't take long either. Good still need to do more in master bed room.

I didn't do too bad in the end this week - caught up on a good few things. But I am bad about getting the buying started this year. I just can't seem to find the time or energy to get moving on it.

Wow I missed a week!

I did finish the master bathroom - it is soon to be renovated so I mostly had to empty, clean, and make a list of needed items (we are removing an old bath and installing a new bathtub with shower doors and built-in side shelves to hold towels, plus repairing the poor plaster job from a previous renovation and I am really hoping to add a new storage mirror)
