Maybe you have a place in your den where you keep your best gear, or the gear you use most frequently. Could be only razors or brushes, perhaps your favorite combination. Here's my current top shelf of brushes and some EdTs... razors are on the shelf below. ...be seeing you.
My shelf. My "actual" top shelf is one of my linen closet shelves. That Spice rack on the wall is just where I keep the stuff I tend to use the most. Edit: The rest of my Den. http://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/plans-den.28499/
Look carefully, the very top shelf is reserved for my Williams Mug Shaving Soap. This is so I don't inadvertently grab it by mistake
I agree. I'm really getting into some of the top of the line gear. At some point I'll have to thin the herd, but in the meantime I'm enjoying some great products.
That gets filed under 'gear I use frequently.' The expensive and fancy stuff gets rotated through spots on the countertop. The Old Spice is a staple no one should ever be without.
End of the year finale: Back row: Penhaligons Sartorial, Opus, Paladin Faux Ivory Chief, English Fern, Roger & Gallet L'Homme EdTs Top Shelf: Paladin PK-47, The Varlet Orion, Wolf Whiskers Pearl and Midnight Orchid Finest, Shavemac Barber 26mm, Simpsons Faux Black Marble M7 Manchurian Back row: Romera 2nd Anniversary Horn, Shavemac Faux Tortoise 26mm, Morris & Forndran Faux Horn 3/2, LASS Co BBS-1 Front row: Vie-Long Faux Horn Beehive Silver Tip, Shavemac Black 23mm, Plisson European White No. 12 Ebony, Wolfman OC Razor rack: Black Mamba, Ikon Slant, Pils, Mongoose/Hempel All outstanding products which I enjoy using, though I foresee a reduction in the den during 2016. I'm also participating in a self imposed NoBuy2016. Happy New Year, and great shaves everyone!
You have some really pretty shave stuff @Number six. That blue and white pearled brush and that razor that appears to be highly sculpted in the handle and machined billet head are my favorites of your stuff.
Amended top shelf. Not pictured top shelf brushes: The Varlet Orion, M&F 3/2, Plisson EW 12... I don't expect too many changes now that I'm in No Buy mode. This could last a lifetime though.
I did, thank you! That's a bad photo, but it is a very beautifully grained walnut. I also turned a matching lather bowl to go along with it.
