A random NBR/TMI ?

TelycoTelyco
in Upstate NY Babies

We (well, I) am giving our 1/2 bath a mini-makeover. I painted this weekened and am putting up a little storage cabinet, full length mirror and a new towel ring & bar.

Now to my question - do ya'll have a magazine rack of some sort in your bathroom? Normally I would say NO WAY...but DH thinks it would be awesome. I know a lot of people do (I posted this question a long time ago on D&R because I bought one for another place in the house and DH automatically assumed it was for the bathroom - most of the people there had them too)

I don't want to be one of those people that only decorates for guests but I also don't want to gross people out either.

:)

    no, we don't have one... and I don't think I would. I'm an "in and out" kinda person, and so is DH. Once in a while he will grab the paper to bring in w/ him, but not often.

    We don't have a magazine rack, but the bottom drawer of our cabinet/vanity (conveniently within arm's reach of the throne) has been reserved for DH's sudoku books and other random reading materials.

    I don't know that a magazine rack would gross me out... then again I'm an in and out kind of person too...  but I do prefer DH's toilet-time-killing activities to be hidden.

    We don't have a magazine rack or anything like that in our bathrooms. 

    We just watched a rerun of "How I Met Your Mother" where Marshall takes a magazine into the bathroom with him at work.  I asked DH (jokingly) if he wanted me to keep magazine in the bahtroom for him and he said no, he takes his phone in with him if he feels like reading something, lol.

    So no, i would NOT put a magazine rack in my bathroom.

    We have a cabinet with doors on it- I make DH keep his reading material in there!

    I also do not understand the 30 minute time frame for him...

    LOL!  We don't have one.  I'm also an in and out girl.  My dh spends what seems like hours in there and keeps his magazines under the sink.

    I am an in and out kinda girl too, but I don't see a problem with a magazine holder in the bathroom, especially if it is cute and would make my DH happy.  I would also be really grateful for a place to store all of the firehouse and this old house magazines my DH simply must subscribe to and then never reads.

    I would not be grossed out if I saw a rack/basket of magazines in someone's bathroom, but I seem to be in the minority :)
