Just thought I would post one last update about my bathroom now that I've added a couple of fun little things.   I also wanted to mention the question block lamp product, 8 bit lit, currently on Kickstarter right now.   If you haven't seen it yet, here is a link:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1189253589/the-question-block-lamp
The initial pledging of the product ends in 40-some hours, so act quick if you want one!  It's a pretty awesome coin block, I actually won one of them through a contest they had.

Here you can see it above my toilet now:


And here's a shot of it in the dark:


Another thing I added was just a little night light.  I couldn't find a Mario themed night light to save my soul, so I decided to just make one:


And here's a shot of it in the dark:


Next I decided to build some green pipes.  The first one I made was to house my toilet brush, which you can see here:


And the final thing I added was a piranha plant for the garbage can.  I must admit, I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.   I started out with all this stuff as my supplies:


And it turned out like this in the end!






It's taking a little getting used to because it sort of stares at me when I'm in the bathroom doing my business.  And he looks hungry.  :)

Anyway, just thought I'd share one last update about the bathroom.  I really don't think there's much else I could add to it at this point, so I think this will be my last post about it.  :)

Heh, the piranha plant really does look good.
