Is your bathroom cluttered and untidy? Do you find yourself frustrated, because you know you brought a new packet of soap and for the life of you, you can't find it!
Do you have your toilet in the bathroom, reach for a new roll of toilet paper and remember that its in another room, because you don't have the space? This is something you hear all the time. Bathrooms most of the time are not huge space wise, But I have some idea's for you.
If you have a smallish bathroom and toilet you can make it look bigger.
Lets start with some easy cleaning, if you have a glass shower or shower door and its covered in soap scum there are a few options. For those of you like getting into the healthy and environment friendly way of cleaning, a spray bottle filled with white Vinegar works a treat, spray it on glass and tiles and leave it for 10 Minutes.
Come back and wipe it off and you will have a sparkling shower. The other option is using a laundry stain remover (sounds a little odd I know) but it works, spray it on the glass surface and leave it for 15Min's.
Come back and wash it off and bingo, you have a new shower. Some of you will be thinking, why by cleaning my shower am I making space in the bathroom? Its easy and by being able to see through the clean glass, give the impression of more space.
If you have a shower over a bath or have a shower that doesn't have a door, but does have a shower curtain, try to get a clear curtain and as above, once a month give it a wipe down with Straight White Vinegar. It will keep it looking clear and clean.
Now the base of the shower and bath are also simple, you can use your normal bathroom cleaners or you can use Baking Soda. Sprinkle it in the bath or on the shower base and with a warm wet cloth give it a good wipe, it should sparkle when you are done.
Right, next thing to take on.......is the bathroom cupboard....as with the other cupboards we have done so far, take everything out and put in on the floor so you can sort through everything. Make sure you have a rubbish bag ready and a small box ready for the things that are in there and don't belong.
So lets start by separating out the items we all have in our bathroom cupboard - Towels
Body Lotion
- Face creams and cleansers
- Medicine (more to come of this subject)
- Soap (spare)
- Toilet paper
- Tooth paste and toothbrushes (spare)
- Nail care items (clippers, scissors, files)
- Make up
- Hair ties/ brushes
I may have left a few things out, we all have our special things.
So now you need to look over what you have taken out of you cupboard and work out what belongs and doesn't.
