Tight bathroom. No rug?

[Anonymous]

We have a tight bathroom, like this:



I can not find one that is small enough to fit and still open/close the door. Right now, we just aren’t using a rug, but as our main shared upstairs bathroom, it is cold on the feet and just looks like something is missing.

I bought a bath mat that sort of just fits, but it’s always sliding around and getting crumpled and it’s worse than nothing, so I abandoned that idea and now it’s just the bare floor. Is this ok? Thoughts?

I get a towel fabric mat and leave it on the tub.

We have that for getting in and out of the shower, but I’m mainly talking about for when you’re standing by the sink, getting ready.

If the shower is used regularly I would put something in there so no one slips. Looks-wise, it's fine.

I use a washable rug in my bathroom and it's pretty flat compared to the fuzzy rugs.

You’re kidding, right?

Also, stop saying “ewww”, it’s very pedestrian. You can do better if you’re genuinely that disgusted. But, which over this, you should not be.

Get someone to shave a quarter or half an inch off the bottom of the door. I had our contractors do this when we remodeled our bathroom because the door made it difficult to keep the rug in place. Then you can have whatever type rug you want.

People who don't want to fall and crack their head open coming out of the shower.

Shave the door.

IKEA Toftbo mats are thin, comfortable and washable (though move around somewhat).

I’ve never had a bathroom mat by the sink but I agree the Toftbo ones are great and easy to launder. They drain better than the cotton ones so they don’t imbalance the washer.

Yikes!
That bathroom is about the size of my own!
Lol.

It looks fine w/o a rug but I like a rug in my bathroom just to step on something soft after showering so I have a bathroom rug in front of the sink/vanity.

I am still able to open & close the door fine with it - maybe because it has rubber lined on the bottom?

A bathroom rug is fine.
What was really gross (and unsanitary!) was the way people had actual carpet installed in their bathrooms in the 60’s/70’s.
