Our only downstairs bathroom is a tiny half bath with no built in cabinets, and little room for any stand alone storage. I could have bought something, but after already having a basket/shelf that was perfect, I decided to just go with that.
The problem? No place to hide feminine products. Yes, I'm talking about pads and tampons. While I'm wiling to let spare tp sit exposed in a pretty stand, I really don't want those little yellow packages on display.
The solution? Gift boxes! Tampons fit perfectly in a bracelet box. I had a gold one that went well with the red paint in the bathroom. For the pads, I didn't have the right gift box, but I had an empty box of chocolates that was the perfect size. So I pulled out some gold and white wrapping paper, glued a piece the the top, and it fit right in.
