Talk:Bathroom cabinet
It is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
Rather useless stub.
[edit ]This article should really be a section in either a bathroom article, or a cabinet article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.86.184.50 (talk) 01:30, 23 August 2012 (UTC) [reply ]
History
[edit ]What is the history of this item of furniture? Pioneer-era families had a medicine chest, a box holding nostrums, philtres, electuaries, pills, potions and minims of snake oil. Rarely did they possess a bathroom. At what point did the chest raise itself off the floor, attach itself to the wall, hide behind a mirrored door? It must have been the same time that the pioneer folks got fancified and started washing theyselfs once a week, and built a room to do it in. What is the connection between bathing and medicine ? The concept of hygiene ? Anyone? 121.44.162.138 (talk) 21:20, 28 November 2016 (UTC) [reply ]
