It's Kitchen and Bath month at Apartment Therapy. I guess we lump these two rooms together not only because of their plumbing requirements, but also because of their ostensible emphasis on function. The considerations for these spaces can be the most demanding; after all, organization, aesthetics and efficiency can be mutually exclusive! Here are some random good ideas for decorating these crucial spaces....
Kitchens:

2 Save counter space and keep paper towels accessible with an under-counter caddy. Image via Southern Living
3 In a neutral, traditional kitchen, add interest and storage space with fanciful brackets. Image via Daisy Pink Cupcake

Bathrooms:
5 Instead of a built-in towel rack, use a ladder with dowels for rungs, which you can secure to the wall or floor, as suggested by marthastewart.com
