The more commonly used hair products and a spiffy container of cotton swabs. I sort of have a "collection" of hair products for different occasions/weather/types of bad hair days, but most of them reside in the cabinet under my sink. I'm still hunting for the right over-the-toilet wall shelf. :)

If the concrete isn't sealed, you absolutely need some kind of moisture barrier and not just a plastic sheet. The right kind of underlay is really important as the concrete probably won't be totally flat - you don't want the planks to teeter on a high point or lift at a corner for someone to trip on. You're lucky that this is in a house. If you were in an apartment-style property, you'd have to dish out for a 90dB sound barrier type of underlay. Avoid using carpet underlay as that's typically made up of foam bits and won't act as a moisture barrier at all (you have to preserve both sides of the wood plank) and can actually help fungus to grow under your nice wood floor. Also, try to get tongue-and-groove or click-lock flooring so you don't have to glue down every piece.

Looks like this one was just posted yesterday as well... Different content and author, same people & design. I guess this is a popular one for making it to both OregonLive & The Oregonian!
