bathroom edition by Yee-Fan Sun | 1 2 3 continued from page 1 the plan of
attack Stash the remaining stuff out of sight wherever possible. There is no reason in the world why you need to display your entire toiletry collection in the space around your sink. Anything you don't use on a daily basis should be stowed away -- in the medicine cabinet, in a drawer, on a shelf, or in another room if necessary. The same thing goes for the twenty different bottles of shampoos, conditioners, bubble baths, exfoliating scrubs and myriad other beautification products that stand like sentinels around the edge of your tub. Any items that don't get regular use -- at least once weekly -- should either be tossed (if you never use them) or put away (if you use them every once in awhile). And if you have multiple half-open bottles of any of your favorite toiletries, combine them and pitch the extra empty containers to free up space. If you're lucky enough to have a linen closet built into your bathroom, you'll also want to go through your linens and do a good purging. Those ratty old towels that are unraveling at the edges? The ones that you never you use because they have a faintly mildewy smell that no amount of laundering seems able to remove? Toss them into the trash or use them as cleaning rags; either way, clear them out of your valuable storage space. ---------------------------> lounge . nourish . host . laze . home.
