Is your bathroom cluttered and irritating you or your family? Do you find yourselves frustrated in the morning and at night, because you know you brought a new packet of soap or toothpaste 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 the linen closet, because you don't have the room? This is something you hear time and time again. Bathrooms in general (unless you are one of the lucky ones) are not huge space wise. But I have some idea's for you. If you have a small bathroom and toilet you can make it look more spacious. Lets start with some simple 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 me out there that are getting into the healthy and environment friendly way of cleaning a spray bottle filled with straight 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 gleaming shower. Another option is using a laundry stain remover (sounds a little odd I know) but it works, spray it on the glass and leave it for at least 15 Minutes. Come back and wash it off and bingo, you have a lovely looking new shower. Some of you will be thinking, why by taking time 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 almost clear curtain. Once a month give it a wipe down with 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 arange is the bathroom cupboard....as with the other cupboards we have done so far, take everything out and put in on to a small table so you can sort through everything. Make sure you have a rubbish bag ready and a 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 follow on this one) - Soap (spare) - Toilet tissue - 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 go through what you have taken out of you cupboard and work out what belongs and doesn't.
