DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0020] Referring now to FIG. 1, a perspective view of bath tub 100 showing its structural elements and component bathing items and accessories is shown according to an aspect of an embodiment of the present invention. Bath tub 100 is shown with proximal end 102 and distal end 104. In an aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, both ends may be directly opposite each other. Proximal end 102 may include one or more recessed cavities 102A and 102B. It should be noted that the number of recessed cavities may vary and the number shown herein are only illustrative. Recessed cavities 102A and 102B may be used to place any number of bathing supplies, accessories and/or items. In one aspect, recessed cavities 102A and 102B may be used for the placement of candles, 112A and 112B.

[0021] Bath tub 100 may also include left side 106 which includes one or more recessed cavities 106A through 106D—each of which may be structurally configured to allow the placement of a variety of bathing supplies, accessories and/or items such as bottle 114A, soap bar 114B, cup 114C etc. which a user may use while bathing. In yet another aspect, each or both of left side 106 or right side 108 may include an elongated nook such as 106D which may be structurally configured to receive placement and storage of a bath brush such as bath brush 114D.

[0022] Bath tub 100 may also include magazine rack 110 which may be configured to hang over either left side 106 or right side 108 of bath tub 100. In one aspect, magazine rack 110 may be fixed. In another aspect, magazine rack 110 may be removably fixed and may then be moved to another position alone either left side 106 or right side 108 of bath tub 100. Alternatively, rack 110 may be housed within enclosure 116 located inside a side area of bath tub 100, as shown in FIG. 2. In an aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, a hinged door 118 may be provided to enclose rack 110 within enclosure 116 to ensure the books or magazines remain dry. In another aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, enclosure 116 may feature shelves 120 (not shown) which may be sized to fit and support books, magazines or other miscellaneous items desired by the user. The enclosure 116 acts as an area to house books or items desired to be stored in the tub but closed to avoid getting wet. When the door 118 is opened, an inside wall of the tub acts to support items placed in the enclosure 116. The enclosure is a large cutout or storage area on the side of the bathtub. The enclosure can be designed to be along the front or back of the tub for additional storage.

[0023] FIG. 3 is an isometric view of the enclosure door 118 of the bath tub 100 opened and the door 116 supporting items. The door is hinged so that it opens away from the walls of the tub. The door opens at an angle and acts as a chute to receive magazines, books and the like. The door features a pocket sized to receive books, magazines and the like. The pocket is open at is top and closed at its bottom. When the door is closed, the books and the like avoid unnecessarily getting wet or destroyed.

[0024] The invention has been described in detail with particular reference to certain preferred embodiments thereof, but it will be understood that variations and modifications can be effected within the spirit and scope of the invention.
