Beachy Bath Bucket Storage

I needed a little extra storage for in the childrens bathroom.  I hung aqua painted pails from rope on an old barn pully.  It hangs on the shower curtain rod to hold bubble bath, sponges etc.  I tied on a sea star & added a little bunch of beach grass to go with my seaside theme.  It goes well with the clam shell on the edge of the tub holding soap.  Plus - It actually encourages my kids to put the shampoo away. 

I just got back from vacation - I was excited to see all the new great posts!

What a great idea and the photos are beautiful. I think I was starting to smell sun tan lotion as I was admiring your photos.

Nicely done.

JUNKFORFUN writes: THAT IS SO COOL, THANK YOU FOR SPARKING MY IMAGINATION. THIS IS THE SAME KIND OF BEACH LOOK I'M TRYING TO GIVE MY BATHROOM. I DON'T WANT TO USE ALL THE BEACH STUFF FROM THE STORE BECAUSE THEN YOUR ROOM JUST ENDS UP LOOKING CHEESY. I LIKE THIS IDEA. IT'S JUST REAL AND CREATIVE. THANKS AGAIN.
