Abstract
Abstract The article comprises a mirror element (10) and a hanger/support element (14). The hanger (14) includes a flat, flexible base member (16) having a plurality of integral suction cups (22) extending from one surface thereof and a mushroom-shaped projection (20) extending from the opposing surface thereof. The projection (20) is configured to removably fit through an opening (12) in the mirror. Thus, the hanger (14) removably secures the mirror (10) directly to a shower wall or the like and is also removable relative to the mirror (10) itself.
