Getting Rid of Bathroom Clutter

by Maricar on July 1st, 2005

Scented candles on the edge of the bathtub. Fancy soap in tiny containers. Silk flowers in delicate vases. These are all the results of a previous desire to capture that “spa” look in our bathroom. The soap was even nestled in a bed of raffia. Well, these fancy trimmings are gone now. I realized that they’re exceptional dust collectors. They’re purely for decorative purposes, since I prefer real bath soap over the ones shaped like shells. I seldom use candles, except in the kitchen to get rid of cooking odors. And honestly, I don’t have the time, nor the inclination, to dust the raffia.

Except for the washroom in the first floor (which visitors use), I minimized the fluff on our bathroom counters, leaving only what’s necessary. The more counter space I could see, the better. It’s now faster to clean and much easier to maintain. A scented plug-in (with its own outlet) has replaced the candles. Gone is the spa look, but I really don’t miss it anyway.
