It’s the little things: Jewelry for your shower

You know how it is when you don’t know that you need something because you have no idea that it exists, but then you discover it and absolutely NEED to have it because it’s just, well, cool? Well, I now officially NEED a designer drain for our new shower. Seriously, how cool are these…

They’re from a company in the US called – wait for it – Designer Drains. Their motto is “Assisting the environment, one shower at a time”.

Their drains are made from reclaimed stainless steel and contain no plastic or PVC. They can also make drains from bronze, brass, aluminium, stainless steel, and stone.

As you can see, they come in all sorts of motifs – from intricate patterns to sea life to gadgets to nature. If there’s a particular design that you want but don’t see on their web site, never fear – customized and personalized requests are greatly encouraged.

Square drains are also available.

And seeing as you wouldn’t want your kitchen sink to feel left out, you can buy a designer drain for it too.

  2. You're right - now I am pining for that drain cover! I'll be sleepless, tossing and turning until my drain is as fabulous!

    1. I love the ocean-themed drains and the bubbles :-) Hubby wants a linear drain, though - but luckily, Designer Drains will do designs on linear drains too :-)

  8. Kelly, you just jarred my memory as somewhere I have another website bookmarked for decorative drain covers and pop-ups so now I am going have to search for it. I think they are totally cool as well! Thanks for the link on these ones.
