Bathroom Peeks: Killorn's Hangout for Morty the Wonder Pug

Welcome to Killorn, a Seattle reader!

Killorn writes, Not as dramatic as other submissions, but definitely Morty the Wonder Pug's favorite place to hang out in my tiny (450 sq ft) apartment in Seattle's South Lake Union neighborhood.

I am addicted to beauty products. Try as I might to de-clutter, it's a losing battle. The goal now is to house the clutter as attractively as possible - i.e., the soaps in the basket serving as its own little piece of "art."

You've done a great job housing your clutter because I still can't find it. Lovely bathroom.

Thank you! Morty was vary excited to discover that he is famous.

I wish I knew who the artist is - I purchased a pair of these drawings off the wall of the salon I go to (Vain - highly recommend) years ago. Check the links below for a more detailed picture of the set.

I am currently redoing my living area including - yes - organizing my books by color. Goal? Smallest Coolest 08!
