De-Clutter Your Bathroom How can you make sure your bathroom is functional AND beautiful? Let’s get started! - First, set up an area to help you organize items. Have a “trash” and “remove from bathroom” bin set up, and a large clear space where you can set everything out and take stock.
- Tackle any countertops and visible areas first. Put away anything that doesn’t need to be out. Keep things close to where they’re used – put hand soap, and toothbrushes and toothpaste near the sink. It’s much easier to keep cleared spaces clean and sanitary.
- Throw away old items, and products that have expired and don't forget to recycle where you can!
- Once all items are out, wipe all the cabinets and surfaces down, dust, and clean areas you normally can’t get to.
- Plan to put everything away by how often you use it. Back-ups and spares? Put those in the back of the cabinets.
- Put things away according to how they’re used. Morning skin care products should go together, in the order they’re used.
- Don’t let your drawers become catch-alls. Add organizers and small boxes to keep things tidy.
- Small bathroom? Buy vertical organizers that go over the toilet or shelves that sit higher in the room.
Does your room feel peaceful? Now, stick with it and make it a habit to keep it that way. Set aside a few minutes every time you get ready in the morning to put each item you use back in its spot. This Decluttering Series brought to you by: 1736 Rt 70 East, Cherry Hill, NJ 08003 |
