Bathroom of the apes
About 3 or 4 years ago, we found this at Target and thought it was awesome:
Monkey soap! Hee! Fun and goofy; perfect for our second bathroom.
But then things spiraled out of control.
Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil monkey candles. God bless Target! So we have a few monkey items in our spare bathroom, big deal.
Heh. A monkey lotion dispenser. We don’t actually have lotion in it, but it looks nice!
Hello, obviously this bathroom needed a monkey rug. Seriously. Don’t judge.
And a monkey mirror. Man, we love Target’s $1 aisle.
OK, maybe we didn’t need another monkey candle (or 2), but they were $1!
And then came the piece de resistance:
Now we may have overdone it. Help us.
I think you’re beyond help. I’m sorry.

I must concur with Jess. You have passed the line that was drawn about a million miles back. But dang that shower curtain is CUTE!

That’s awesome! My bathroom is done in ducks. I love ducks and my husband loves monkeys. If we ever have a second bathroom I’m sure it will be filled with monkeys!
Hi! I found you searching bacon

Can I suggest some monkey & banana wallpaper?

That is awesome!!! I totally tried to theme it in my son’s bathroom but wimped out. We have frogs, ducks and fish. That is KIND of theme-y, right?! Like a pond… Yeah no so much, eh?!

Have you noticed that Target is CRAWLING with monkey-themed shit lately? What is the DEAL with that? The world is now run by DAMNED DIRTY APES!
Anyway, I think it’s cute.

Very cute – at least it’s contained to a bathroom, which typically have a fairly limited square-footage. My kitchen was once overrun by cows, thanks to my MIL. I had ONE cow-themed little knick-knack in there, which she took to mean I needed 100 more things. We’re back to just the one thing again, but it was dicey there for a bit.

JMC,
That is awesome! Thanks for the link!
Deni,
Welcome! And we are tickled by the fact that you found us by searching for bacon – ROCK.

can we have a full-room picture? i would love to see all these elements working together

Alice, I can try, but since most of the items are in a medicine cabinet with see-thru shelves (located above the toilet behind the door), it’s gonna be tough to get everything in one shot.

I think the monkeys rock! I’ve seen some of that stuff at the Target Dollar Spot (there is some new monkey stuff there now actually).

I can’t judge, my bathroom is done in PINK, and monkeys are far more dignified. Seriously.

This is awesome. I once wanted to do a fish bathroom, but I talked myself out of it.

Can we see a picture of the whole room? All the monkey paraphernalia together?

Awesome.

I’d like to see a picture of the whole room, too! I LOVE MONKEYS!
