A new series on Nadsat inspired by a thread on Style Forum, “Things I never knew I needed” (but now desperately need). The first installment, decorative bottles for bathroom items:

I like a neat bathroom even though I barely claim mine as such. A neat bathroom used to mean empty to me, nothing on the counter tops, but that that’s not how people live. If you are going to have things sitting out on your counter, why not make it look nice? I don’t want to have my giant bottle of mouthwash sitting out on the counter, but it is something I reach for everyday, so why not have nice, dedicated container? Asprin, cotton swabs, vitamins, etc… there are any number of things.
The jars above are from Design Within Reach and while there are almost certainly cheaper options out there, these are the first ones I noticed. The image here is a medicine cabinet from an early time before plastic bottles or a nice hotel where even the cotton swabs have their own leaded glass jar.
Excessive? Of course. Necessary? Absolutely not. Welcome to “Things I never knew I need.”
