I’m fond of bright, cheerful colors for the bathrooms. You know, like dashing green, flashy yellow, or perhaps bold red. The ones I have now are electric green in color, and I simply love them. Bright colors have a way of perking up my mood in the morning. But they are nothing out of the ordinary; they are the ones you see in every home décor  store. So, when I first spotted this metal bath accessories collection at Restoration Hardware, I wasn’t sure what was about it that appealed to me. Perhaps the shine, shape, simplicity or elegance?

The two-tone collection is also not bad.

What colors and material (ceramic, metal) do you prefer for your bathroom accessories? Does it make a difference?

In other news, my Diwali cleaning is almost done. Organizing the kitchen cabinets is what is remaining which means 2 hours of work. I don’t follow the de-cluttering, painting, cleaning, and organizing routine every year which is usually the norm for Diwali in North India. But this year was different. The house badly needed it. So, I got the bathroom tiles cleaned and filled the gaps with white cement. The rest I managed myself - fans and furniture cleaning, the living room/bedroom tiles, washing the curtains/throws/cushions and bringing out the silken ones, polishing the silverware, giving away unwanted stuff, getting the shine back on mirrors and windows, washing all the doors ..oh the list was endless until a few days back.  I’m glad it’s all over.
