Shaving items from IKEA?

Im headed down to Sunrise,FL tomorrow to IKEA with the wife and son. I know some of you all use some stuff from IKEA. Any recommendations on items to buy... Mugs, bowls, Cups,Boxes, Storage etc...

I figure there has to be a few things

They have this metal bowl which comes in all different sizes. But one size you can hold in your palm and use as a lather bowl. I think it's great for $2-3.

Thx! Any other suggestions anyone?

I use the Blanda Matt as my lather bowl....I think it's the 5" one.

Cool much appreciated =)

I got a nice little cabinet for my shaving bathroom (small bathroom) - the cabinet's about 10 in x 27 in. (it helps keep my acquisition disorder in check, but I have overflow in the main bathroom ), never the less, they have lots of nice cabinets for neatly storing your shaving stuff.

what's it called? i'd like to get one for my bathroom but don't know if the missus will approve. gotta link?

I got this cabinet. It's nice with the little towel rack and I have put hooks on the side to hold my razors and scuttles. I also use a little mini DE as a handle.

Here's what it looks like at home:

That cabinet looks fantastic!!

You have a two-band brush, and then... desecrate... it by building in a bowl this cheap?

I have been tempted do buy one of those for ages. If only they made them with plain glass, without flowers...

Nice setup!

Ikea 365+ Plocka bowl. Ideal size for mixing lather and it's also double walled ceramic so it really holds the heat in well too.

Step further then the wall cabinet for me was getting once of those ones that stands above the tank of the toilet. Lot's of room and hook space.

(my english is getting rustier.. and in my county we call all WC the toilet. it took me some moments to understand you.)

Could you send a picture or a link for something like that? thanks!

Not the exact one I have-



Depending on arangment of the bathroom they can be quite handy.

for storing my soap pucks:

I like to hold the puck in my hand when I load my brush and then store it back into the container. They are wide so perfect for soaps.

I got this from Ikea:

It is a modular kitchen cabinet. Comes with hanger brackets.

It is quite deep for a bathroom, but my bathroom just happens to have a small alcove above the end of the counter (which extends into that alcove) and this fit perfectly.

The expensive part is the door but I got that from their discontinued pile for next to nothing.

Thank you! I've never seen anything like this!

(I wonder if Ikea has plans to sell it! )

Where did you get the little clear plastic razor holders that are stuck to your mirror?
