Have you looked at bathmats lately? Because they’re real boring. Lots of Sage Greens and Dusty Roses. Not a lot of stunners. I recently logged a lot of hours looking for the perfect one and on the off chance that your struggles are my struggles (and I can only imagine they are), here’s a hit list from a surprise source – Society6.
Society6, you say? Don’t they sell art prints? Indeed, they do, but they’ve branched out, Gang, in a big way. It’s a real Home Goods for the Hipster Set over there…and those of us that just can’t with Wamsutta.
I was a bit hesitant on this order. What if it didn’t meet or exceed my expectations? BUT IT DID. Velvety soft on top. Super absorbent for soggy feet. It’s plush, people. These mats are stuffed with a formidable foam so go on and get you one. Need some recos? I’m here for you.
This one is cleverly titled, These Boots – Glitter Pink Bathmat. It’s the one I bought!!! I paired it with a vintage runner I got from Benny of Benny Jack’s fame. Oh, you don’t care?! Telling you anyway.
I’ll tell you what they’re not wasting money on at Society6. Descriptions. Drinking Water Bath Mat was my runner up and it’s from Katie Kimmel. Whaaa? Yes, Jimmy’s daughter. She makes the most wonderfully weird ceramics, too, but we’ll save that for another post. CONTENT!!
Love the heck out of this one. They spent the extra five cents and called it, I got an idea Bathmat. Though, let’s get real, Sharks ‘n Chums would have been the obvious way to go.
70s Retro Smiley Face Pattern in Beige & Pink Bathmat? Shoulda called it All Smiles.
Here’s a nice little botanical, Jungle Abstract 2 Bathmat, to liven up your lavatory. What is happening with all this alliteration? Don’t know. Don’t care.
Son of a bitch, how did Sage Green make the cut?????? It did though. In the form of Botanical Matisse NO. 5 | Sage Green Bathmat.
How about some Funky Herbs: Matisse Edition Bathmat? If you’re unfamiliar with Matisse, it’s in reference to Henri Matisse, “largely regarded as the greatest colorist of the 20th century.” He was known for his “expressive, decorative, large-scale paintings.” I feel like that’s a bit generous for a bathmat ,but okay.
Here’s a long ass title for an a-okay bathmat. Tribal Pink Blue Fan Colorful Mid Century Modern Abstract Painting Shapes Pattern Bathmat. Oh, I get it now, they’re cramming the titles full of keywords. Catch you on the flip, Search Engine.
Here’s another Keyword Party. Mid Century Modern Minimalist Abstract Art Brush Strokes Black & White Ink Art Spiral Circles Bathmat. My suggestion? Scribble Scrabble.
Clickbait Number Three – Mid Century Modern Abstract Painting Orange Watercolor Brush Strokes Bathmat. They went hard on the buzzwords because though I like this bathmat, there’s literally nothing Mid Century about it.
Wonky Smiley Face – Black and Cream Bathmat actually rounded out my Top Three. It’s a nice trippy take on a real simple design. It also screams, I’m cool enough to own the paraphernalia, but it ends there.
There are honestly so many good ones, and some total junkers, too, but mostly good. Take a PTO day and burn it all at Society6.com.
P.S. Don’t be fooled when it says 25% off, 30% off, TODAY ONLY. They’re just joshin’. They’re always on sale.
