Ours is a wrought iron hook which was being made by a blacksmith at a show we attended. It was actually intended as a drapery pull back. Have used it for at least 10 years and it still gets comments. You can see it amongst the photos linked from "My Page".

That's lovely Jamesk.

Fnmroberts, will check out your hook. I was actually wanting something smaller for the powder room. It's already a tiny space.

Anymore ideas?

Decided I like the one you showed there Jamesk, and will get it! Thanks. But for the kid's bathroom I may use hooks.

Jamesk, I just got two of those same Surface towel rings in polished chrome!
I also got the matching TP holder. The Ginger line is pricey, but when I actually had it in my hands, I could feel the quality of it and the difference with so many other brands.

I also splurged on one of their splashables for the shower. Very cool stuff.

Okay, confession time. I couldn't resist making more "Ginger" purchases after reading about the quality.

Stop me somebody, LOL

Mari...I stopped with just 3 items only because I don't like towel bars. And I already have some hooks.

As you know, these items are very high priced, but I did find someone who I ended up getting pretty much all of my fixtures from at a discount of 35% without any haggling.

I got my Grohe shower tower, Robern Medicine cabinets, Toto washlet, Panasonic Whisper/Heat and the Ginger items...extremely fast delivery and great service.

Unfortunately I left the business card in my car, but if you are interested, I will give you and everyone else their information tomorrow.

And I understand going wild with Ginger. I only stopped because I am trying to keep within budget. A budget I set high to begin with.

Bonnie, I would LOVE to get that information if you have the time. I do need to update the MB so that would come in handy.

Ok, here's the information I promised. In looking at his card, i see he sells all appliances, kitchen and bath cabinets and fixtures, hardware, etc.

I wish I had found him before I bought some of my stuff. But I did get two Robern medicine cabinets, Grohe shower tower, Toto washlet, Panasonic Whisper Warm, and assorted Ginger products. I think my savings over the lowest prices I found was about $850.00 with him

They do have an ebay store, but I only found them through that, purchased directly through them My suggestion is to decide on all the things you might want, get pricing, and then have him price it out. He was absolutely lower in everything.

Give him a call. He's a swell older gentleman who has been in the business over 30 years and definitely knows his stuff. It's like just dealing with a friend. Tell him Bonnie told you to call and let me know how you make out.

I believe their ebay name is : rachelbargains05 So you can search them out there, but they have access to everything, not just what is on there.

Bonnie, I will give him a call on Monday. Thank you for taking the time. Really appreciate it.

In case anyone wants to order more Ginger products, this weekend www.lightingbygregory.com is having a great sale. They are the cheapest I have found for Ginger Products and they are taking an additional 16% off. Shipping is free.

Here is a link that might be useful: Lighting by Gregory

Sorry Ginger Products are not included in the sale. Their price is still the best I have found.

It seems that everybody is offering deals at one time or another. I thought I got the best pricing possible but probably not. Mari, If you decide to call him I suggest that you do your homework first and know what you want and what the best pricing is.

Jersey, I find csnlighting.com to be cheaper most times, plus they'll price match.

I got excited about the "sale" but realised you said NOT Ginger products.

Bonnie, thanks for the tip. I am making a list of prices :-).
