Sharing household items represents no risk for HIV transmission, however it's better to avoid sharing objects like razors or toothbrushes, several studies tried to find out if it was possible to transmit HIV in this way by following several cases, but none of them resulted in transmission.
HIV is very fragile outside the body, there are however other viruses like hepatitis which can be transmitted in this way because they can live way longer outside the body.
