Our Toilet Wall

When Sandi was in New Zealand I had a crazy idea for our Toilet wall...

Our Toilet is pretty horrid: dark, airless and small. It also had an extractor fan that had not worked for a very long time, and was filled with old spider webs. We'd removed the extractor fan out a little while ago which let in a lot more light and air: the effect was good.

So, while Sandi was away I decided to improve on it a little: I lined the hole with some tin to keep rain out of the wall.

I also thought that it'd be neat to put old bottles into the wall :D The idea has been rolling around our brains ever since we helped a couple build their mud-brick house in Tasmania on our honeymoon and we built a big glass bottle into their wall.

So armed with a hole drill and some colourful empties I started with two bottles!

Sandi got a great surprise when she came home, and thoroughly approved (in case you were wondering).

Now we're after nicely coloured bottles to add to the wall :)

MichaelDo you have a no-standing policy? Hope not, otherwise I'd get a sore neck ;)

Sandisome toilet uses do benefit from sitting, I hope a no standing policy is specific in it's application!!
