If Drew Barrymore had to nominate the hardest-working hero of good bathroom design, this three-piece, fluted countertop organizer would be her top contender. “The bathroom is one of our most intimate spaces, where we shower, wash our face, decompress,” says the TV host and 2023 Domino Good Design winner. (It’s also where you’ll find her singing “Paul Revere” by the Beastie Boys at the top of her lungs.) The details—down to the place we store Q-tips—impact the energy, she adds: “Your organizers are essential to having good flow.”
Barrymore is also something of an expert on aesthetic bathroom decor, having launched a new collection this summer: Her Beautiful by Drew line for Walmart features a wide range of elevated basics, including storage accessories that meet her functional-but-chic benchmark. Below, she gets specific about her favorite finishing touches, and we were elated to learn she’s as obsessed with these faux zellige tiles as we are.
The Wallpaper I Love for a W.C.
Mainstays Sage Green Bleached Floral Peel-and-Stick Wallpaper, Walmart ($13 per square foot)
“I really enjoy a good floral pattern—it just screams ‘blooming into new life’ to me! Also how much easier can you get than peel-and-stick.”
My Current Shower Curtain Obsessions
Boho Shower Curtain, Walmart ($20)
Small Stall Fabric Shower Curtain, Walmart ($19)
“These curtains are the perfect blend of form and function—they both have cute tassels at the bottom, and I think the subtly beautiful stitch designs are what give them their own level of pop.”
The Best Bath Mat of All Time
Beautiful Cotton Bath Rug, Walmart ($15)
“I hate the idea of possibly dripping water onto the floor or even touching the cold tile. The texture of this mat is fun and really soft, plus it comes in my all-time favorite, sage green.”
The Most Soothing Showerhead
CES Antique Brass Shower System, Walmart ($99)
“Like the best downpour; relaxing rain on your back.”

The Waterproof Speaker I Shall Not Bathe Without
Aursear Portable Bluetooth Speaker, Walmart ($25)
“This speaker is so crisp and clear. I can honestly say I hear my music vibrating off the walls.”
A Truly Versatile Vanity Fixture

My Preferred Tray for Corralling Countertop Items
