The Winner is #129:Â Linda Miller – Linda, you’ve been emailed!Â
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.Â
All you have to do is leave a comment telling me which you would use the most?Â

My son has cerebral palsy and cannot stand. We are working on standing with assistance, so I think the safety bars would be a very useful addition to our bathroom.
Thanks for the chance!
Jeanne says
Oh, these are so nice! My outdated 1979 home’s bathroom fixtures need to be changed. I would definitely enjoy an update.
Colleen says
We have a facelift in the works for our outdated main bathroom. I’m encouraged to know that such pretty hardware can be found at Wal-Mart! Thanks for introducing me to the line, Rhoda.
Kristine says
Our master bathroom is horribly outdated and we could really use new hardware! Thank you for the chance!
Jane @ Cottage at the Crossroads says
Your bathrooms are looking good with the new hardware! If I won your giveaway, I’d get a new shower seat for my mom. We built her an apartment in our back yard, and she could use the shower seat and some safety handles, too. She will be 90 next month!
Laura G says
Hooks! I can use them to beautify as well as clean up tossed towels and clothes.
nancy says
I’d use it for my mother-in-law who is a sweetheart.
Maureen says
Having had double knee replacement surgery I think the toilet lift handles would be awesome. Getting up from low places is a challenge for me. BTW love the house and it has been fun watching the progress you have made with it.
Sue says
We are preparing to downsize and move into a villa by Christmas Eve. Although we are inching closer to the age of safety product usage, I’m still thinking “young” and would prefer to install beautiful new towel hooks in my new bathroom and save the safety devices for on down the road!!!!!
Just found your blog and am loving it!
Rebecca says
Great choices for both bathrooms! I especially like those satin nickel hooks. We are getting ready to redo our master bath, and I would love to replace all the brass elements with the Peerless ORB finish products. Thanks for the opportunity!
Pat Fowler says
Would love to update our master bath and putting in a couple of grab bars for safety would also be great!
Shanna N says
I would love the bath hardware – our builder grade bathroom has not been updated since the house was built in1980 -I don’t have any towel bars/hooks in our master bath and would love to have a few! Thank you.
Lisa@before meets after says
I would love to win. I’m about to tackle our guest bathroom and it could really use new hardware!
Janet G. says
I love the idea of the hooks and I can envision uses even beyond the bath. Thanks for the opportunity, Rhoda!
Bonnie Schmidt says
I did not know that they made safety products. I usually order mine online, but it is good to know. I have a 93 year old grandmother, so I am very familiar with the above items. Don’t have the safety bar, though. Might need to add that. Your bath is looking good! It has been fun to watch the progres.
maureen says
Carson hooks for everyone!!!! Maybe then I can get out of the shower and use my own DRY towel that has not been used by one of the kids who” forgot” theirs.
Veronica says
Well, since we will be doing a new bathroom in our basement, there are lots of hardware we will be needing 🙂 After reading this I am totally sold on the hooks! 🙂 I want some!
Nancy De Jager says
We have a very small bathroom….the hooks looked great to me,
thank you!
