On Facebook, I saw one of those silly, "Do you know what this is?" posts of a simple Old Spice Shaving Mug... I bought and used one of those in the early 1980's, used it until the early 2000's, when the bristles all fell out of my brush! Lol At that time, I searched the local pharmacys for a new brush, but they only offered kits (mug, soap, brush)... I didn't want to get the whole kit, already having a mug, ended up buying canned shaving cream instead... As silly as the Facebook post was, it reminded me how much I enjoyed the old experience of using a brush and mug! A quick search on Amazon showed numerous Brushes available, so one was purchased... The reason the old brush ultimately failed was because, after shaving, the brush would be set in the mug and after the soap dries, the brush sticks to it! So I made this little station to hold the brush above and free of the mug... Added a slot to hold the Razor too (another antique! Dad bought it for my Birthday in 1971!!) Anyway, a simple and quick project that can either be placed on top of our medicine cabinet or maybe screwed to the wall in the bathroom?? Still haven't decided that one yet... 11 February 2026
