ReplyDeleteThanks, Megan! I will admit — it is awfully cozy.
ReplyDeletei love the design..our toilet should be well organize and it will also be clean cause it reflects our personality..better use some accessories in your bathroom and in your toilet..me i always want that my toilet and my bathroom should be look good so i bought some accessories in Sydney bathroom supplies, they provide everything that you've wanted for your toilet and in your bathroom..
