Where Bloggers Live….. My Medicine Cabinet

Okay, this one might be a challenge for me.  You see, I don’t really have a “medicine cabinet”.  I have places… a sort of linen closet, a cabinet under my sink and a few drawers.  Not sure any of those meet the title of this post, but I guess I’ll fake it.

Welcome to the latest edition of Where Bloggers Live. It’s kind of like HGTV’s “Celebrities at Home,” but…Bloggers! Who doesn’t like to peek behind the scenes and see inside people’s homes and lives.

Most everything I use on a regular basis is either out on my bathroom counter or in a drawer.

Now, I do have a lovely bathroom (at least I think so – and I think that’s what matters.)  I chose an aqua color for towels, with pale purple accents – I love color!   It’s decorated with elephants and irises  – you thought it would be something different? 😀😀

This little aqua box contains good stuff like tylenol and various other things.  I found the box at Dollar Tree and thought the color was about what I had in my bathroom.  Matched perfectly!  Of course the shelf holds an adorable glass jar with an ‘elephant’ stopper.  It contains my noon day medication.

This is probably the closest thing I have to a “medicine cabinet” – and is actually the top of my ‘linen closet” and holds all kinds of bandaid aids, salves and a variety of other odds & ends.

This little shelf/towel holder is one of my favorie things.  A friend who knows I love elephants gave it to me and it a perfect fit.  It’s the first thing you see on the wall across from the door.  Of course there have to be aqua elephants to go along with the ones that are part of the shelf.  The little elephant is made of some sort of flannel material, and there’s a cute little towel with an elephant (aqua colored).

And let’s not forget the irises…

Towel rack with a painting of irises.  A gift a long time ago.

Cut glass window, spider plant and 2 more irises

The picture on the left is a vintage one from my grandmother, the one on the right is a cross stitched iris.  The is multi colored elephant print from #1 son has just right right mixture of colors.  He’s the perfect size and coloring for this spot – he’s hiding something behind him, shuuu, don’t tell anyone.

So, there you have a tour of my master bathroom.  It’s changed a number of times of the years, but I’m really loving it as it is right now.

Your bathroom reflects YOU!! And we all love you so how could we not love your bathroom, too. And great use of the top shelf in the linen closet for all things first aid. Away from little ones’ reach. I have never seen any of my grands offer to peruse the contents of my very accessible medicine cabinet in the downstairs guest bathroom but it would be easy for them to do so. I might need to rethink keeping our prescriptions there. Every time I see your darling elephants I am reminded that I need to get out my cross… Read more »

You do have a lovely bathroom, and it’s wonderful that you carried your ellys and irises aboard in complementary colors. Jodie’s friend MaryKatherine just posted several iris photos and they are LOVELY! I have never had them and am absolutely going to add them to the yard this year).

The aqua box was a great deal and is quite pretty…going to have to check out that aisle on my next trip!

I do admire your stick-to-it-iveness of theme, with elephants and irises decorating every category of your home!

I’m guessing there’s toilet paper behind Elephant Door #1?!?

It’s the best thing that you carry your love of elephants (which I now think of you every time I see clothing with elephants on it) and Irises.
Having those colors is exactly how a bathroom should be. I don’t know how they have trended to being so neutral.
No fair keeping secrets…what’s behind the elephant photo??

I LOVE your aqua/purple iris/elephant bathroom! It’s so personalized, and it’s the kind of room that you makes you smile to see it. I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t have a legitimate “medicine cabinet” but uses other storage options instead.
