Ahh, cleaning bathrooms… my favorite household chore. NOT. I don’t know a single person who enjoys scrubbing down sinks, tubs, or dirty toilets. If you enjoy doing any of that, please reach out to me. I’d love to get inside your brain for a minute lol. Anyway, with a housefull of kids our bathrooms and especially toilets get dirty pretty quickly. I don’t know if my kids don’t know how to flush a toilet or just forget, but I’ve committed to flushing a toilet every time I walk by it. I don’t even check to see if it needs to be flushed anymore, because chances are, there’s something floating that should have been flushed hours ago lol. And when things sit in there for a while, it gets not so fresh. So, I’m sharing with you an easy solution that will leave your bathrooms smelling fresh and clean…. We are going to make cleaning fizzies with essential oils!
