Tub Declutter



I was pretty tired of this hot mess:  

So I bought one of these a few months back:

Better Living Products Clear Choice Dispenser IV Four Chamber Shower Dispenser, White
And had found one of these at a yard sale for $4 last summer:



This will declutter bath toys from the floor in the bathroom where the old basket was.

But the perfectionist procrastinator I am, I put off installing it until I could get all the iron off the walls.
Which will likely never happen. So I decided I just had to clean the one wall for now, install, and perhaps the decluttered tub will inspire me to clean the tub walls.

After:



The hooks, razor holders and soap dish are all are command brand.
The little frog is a sub spout cover for when my kid takes baths. The lower razor holder has bath crayons in it. I still need another command soap dish, but I bought the last one in the store.

I put away the cast cover (which was from like 9 months ago) and purged some shampoos and soaps we didn't like to be used to clean the toilet later.

You can see my shower curtain is pretty badly stained. I simply buy a new one whenever I feel like it, rather than struggle to get it clean.

Side by side:


This does not show how there was a bunch of toys on the floor!
I am really happy with how this turned out. Even though the rest of the walls are still stained. I scrub at the walls a little bit each time I shower, and hubby has been squeegeeing the tub walls more now that the tub is less cluttered.

I later got another soap dish and it is above the crayon cup on the far right side of the after picture now.
I may buy another dispenser for bubble bath and kid shampoo, since those are the only bottles left.
