Men: before you move in with a lady, please be prepared for the necessary space she may require.
First off:
I love old, historic homes.

Unfortunately, sometimes in order to have those gorgeous original hardwoods and 11.5 foot ceilings, you sacrifice large bathrooms/closet space.
Which brings me to my bathroom dilemma: all my crap...and where to put it.
My husband doesn't seem to get it, but: chicks have stuff. Lots of it. Many products that may or may not be necessary every day. It doesn't matter.
I adore girlie stuff: makeup, clothes, lotion, accessories, clothes, perfume, clothes...but I digress.

Since moving in to our home Hubby and I have been sharing one sink in the teeny jack-and-jill bathroom that adjoins two small bedrooms {sense a theme?} upstairs.
Let me just say this: two grown people should NOT share one sink. It is not natural.
Exhibit A: My crap Our sink on a given morning
 |
| {hubby loves me. hates my crap everywhere.} |
My itty-bitty space in the itty-bitty medicine cabinet. This is barely a fraction of my womanly wares:
 |
| {really narrow shelves = stuff falling into sink constantly} |
My crammed-full drawer:
 |
| {cursing ensues each morning when I have to take literally everything out of this drawer to get ready. Rrrraaaarrg!} |
Now enter your exclusive sneak peak of the "new" master bathroom...
Both hubby and I get our very own {ginormous} mirrored medicine cabinet
{I love how much of my girlie goodness I can cram in this baby!}
Not one, but two drawers each...
which I have added some clear organizing bins to
so I can even more stuff!

Drawer two...I have a lot of empty space in this lovely!
{does that mean I have to buy more stuff?}
Mirrors and vanity sink cabinet were purchased at Ikea.
Installed by amazing hubby.
Organizers I just got on sale at Target.
No assembly required.
:o)
More of the bathroom reveal to come!

Completely understand! In our old house we had very little storage..one morning(a not so good one) I hit one of my nail polish bottles(dark green) and it fell. On the way down it hit the toilet, shattered(yes they can do that), and from there came a gasp, then laughter. I had a green splattered toilet cover and green streaks on the wall! Bathrooms never have enough storage!!
