The Winner is #129: Linda Miller – Linda, you’ve been emailed!
Bathroom hardware is so important to the functionality of a bathroom space, especially one like my master bath, a space that is really only big enough for one person at a time. And, you know I really don’t mind it at all. I’ve had the big spa-like bathroom, with his and hers vanities, spa tub, free standing shower and a toilet room and right now, I would prefer my tiny cozy bathroom to a big one. Call me crazy, but I’d much rather have a bigger bedroom and smaller bathroom, that’s my preference after having both.
When I was contacted awhile ago by Liberty Hardware, who wanted me to try out their bathroom hardware and safety products, I said YES. Why not try them out in my new house, since I had 2 bathrooms to outfit with hardware?
So, I chose Satin Nickel (Carson) for the hall bath and Oil Rubbed Bronze (Lockhart) for my master bath and I’ve just had the opportunity to get them installed. What a difference hooks, towel bars and toilet paper holders do for a space. Now I’m so much more organized and can dry my towels too instead of throwing them over the shower rod.
I chose Satin Nickel in Carson for the guestbath. It’s a basic satin finish with a nice looking base holder and I got several pieces to use in each room. A towel ring for the sink area.
They all come with templates to help hang them easy and quick. The template covers all the pieces and you can tape it in place and find where the holes are that you need for each. Taping in place helps keep it straight and using a level on top will ensure a level bar. This is the 24 inch towel bar I’m hanging.
I poked holes through the template and made a mark where my screws will go.
If you are going right into drywall, you’ll want to use these anchors to help the screws stay in. These are included in the package too.
Screw in both sides like this.
Then make sure the small set screw at the bottom is backed out all the way and these pieces slide right over the anchored metal bracket. Tighten up the small screw with a tiny screwdriver and your towel bar is set and in place.
Looking good in here. I still have to hang the shower bar too, but that’s all that’s left in here.
I love the sleek lines of the Carson line.
These hooks look great on the wood board above the beadboard in here.
Since I have all this sea-inspired artwork, I am using it in this bathroom too. Use what you have and since I love the beach, it works for me. I will probably put one more hook in the middle and this wall will be perfect.
In my small bathroom, I decided on hooks right outside the shower and one towel bar above the shower enclosure where I hang my large bath towel. One towel for my hair and a washcloth and that’s all in place now. I love, love using hooks in small spaces in a bathroom. These are nice and substantial, again Lockhart in Oil Rubbed Bronze and I have a mix of metals in here and that’s fine with me too.
Hooks can go in small spaces where a towel bar will not. I’m a big believer in hooks now.
My toilet paper holder is in place as well and now I’m about as organized as I can get in this small space.
Peerless also has some wonderful bath safety products, so while we were at it, my parents got to try out some of these products. Elderly folks sometimes need help in the shower and this tub and shower seat will come in handy in the future.
My parents are still pretty spry for their ages, as you know, but it might not be too long before this will be a handy item to have for them.
A safety toilet seat is also a must for elderly folks when getting up and down gets hard to do. Those handles help get the job done. My dad put one of these in his bathroom in the mountains and liked it a lot.
This safety bar will also come in handy for them to assist in pulling up from the toilet as they get older. I know this is something they will use now, especially my dad. Putting it within arm’s reach is much needed for helping out with safety issues as our folks get older. I’m grateful that they are still getting around well now, but you never know how long that will last.
I’m so thankful and happy with my new bathroom hardware! It makes such a difference and really brightens up my bathrooms, so thank you to Liberty Hardware for the opportunity to get these products for myself.
In case you didn’t know, Peerless bath hardware and safety products can be found at Walmart. It’s stylish and pretty and won’t break the bank either. I’m very proud to have both of these sets in my house.
And here’s some great news for ONE of my readers! Liberty Hardware and Peerless is giving away $100 in bath and safety products to one of my readers.

Jacqueline says
I would prefer bathroom fixtures. They look beautiful.
Pam A. says
I’d love new bathroom hardware to replace my outdated brass.
Kelly D says
I could use the hooks, since I have been asking my husband to install some for me, so I can hang my robe, and our towels.
Pat says
I think it is time to change out my chrome and brass hardware. You are right, it makes a huge difference.
Kim walker says
I plan on giving my guest bathroom a make over and this would help make it more traditional instead of modern. I need the bathroom hooks and towel bars.
Talia says
After the holidays we are renovating our bathroom – gutting it completely! New fixtures would be so helpful!!
Jenny says
I would use the hooks the most. I love the oil rubbed bronze finish.
Sandy A says
Definitely new hardware for our master bath. I love the look and functionality of hooks…
Patricia says
Hi Rhoda, Love how your bathrooms are coming along. I’d use the new hardware, as mine is about 35 + years old…
Lynn says
Thank you, Rhoda, for your blog. I would definitely use new hardware in my bathroom – towel bars and I love the hooks.
Vicki says
I am dreaming of a master bath update. I do not need the safety products yet but I think they would be so helpful. I loved the oil rubbed bronze fixtures. The hooksmare a great idea!
Dorothy F. says
New hardware for my bath. Can you believe I still have the wood towel bar and tissue holder. Talk about dated.
Yvonne says
Love your home progress! The timing couldn’t be better. My bath towel bar just broke
(due to little great nephew hanging from it for years). It served its time and it’s now time for update, plus great nephew has learned his lesson.

I would love to have the opportunity to update my bathroom’s hardware.
Maureen says
At this time I would be able to use the safety equipment more. It would be more for my parents than for anyone else. My mother has had two heart surgeries since February and my father has had three cancer surgeries and a stroke. This would enable them to feel as they are able to do things on their own yet have the security of knowing that there is “something” there for them.
Cathy says
Love the hardware and could really use this in my master bath.
Linda Owens says
Would love to have new hardware to update my master bathroom.

Kate says
Hardware, please!! Thanks!

Sue says
Like you, my folks are spry, but needing some safety products for the bathroom, so I believe if I won, I would SHARE my prize with them. My bathroom is very tiny and does need an update. I need the services of a plumber and will be needing new hardware for my aging bathtub. Once you repair one item, the domino effect takes place.
Thanks for the giveaway!
