2005_1_3_question mark.jpgHello AT,

My bathtub has a very slippery surface, and showering is a precarious operation. I have searched everywhere for some sort of funky and attractive non-slip solution (I grew up with those flower-shaped decals with the sandpaper surface...not my style).

Anyway, everything I can find seems to fall into this category:

Which to my mind is very grandma's house or hospital. BORING!

The only interesting thing I've found is this:
2005_8_5_mat-good.jpg

But it's only available from the UK at Mojo London (as well as some other online retailers), and the shipping charges make it not too cheap (23 pounds for the mat, 22 for shipping...that's about $80).

(It also comes in a psychedelic goldfish pattern, and another version
has neatly clipped green grass, sort of a photographic astroturf).

Surely there is some quirky boutique online or in NYC that has some
other options? If not, I guess I'll go for Pebbles, but I'd love to
have more than one choice!

Thanks, Ona
