Everyone loves their bathroom to smell fresh. In fact I think smell is the key to sensing whether or not your home is clean.
Here are some handy ways to keep your bathroom smelling nice, because lets face it, some of the worst smells in your home can come from the bathroom! Especially if you have teenage boys!
Toilet Brush & Holder - hands up if this is your least favourite item in the bathroom? It really is the item that has the worst job in the home and is probably the most neglected. I am the first to admit that I don’t renew the brush as often as I should and, I’m ashamed to admit, I rarely ever clean it!
Some tips for keeping this yucky item fresh and clean:
- Keep some essential oils in your cleaning cupboard – I like Orange or Lavender (or both) and when you have finished cleaning your toilet put a couple of drops in the bottom of the holder. Next time you get the brush out you will have a lovely scent.
- At least once per month, fill the holder with hot water and some Domestos or bleach and soak the brush in this for an hour or so.
- Every year buy yourself a new brush and holder. Do this in the January or July sales – that way you can get an upmarket one for the price of a supermarket one!
Vanity Surface – when you have finished cleaning your vanity, put a couple of drops of the essential oil you have chosen onto a cloth and rub over the vanity surface. This will leave a lovely scent in your bathroom. You can do this every day just to freshen up the room.
