I know what you’re thinking – Putting mouthwash and not whiskey into a decanter is pure wrong. Trust me I already thought of adding wine to this and stashing it next to the bath – except I don’t have a bath tub. We do have a baby bath for the kids in the bottom of the shower. After many different attempts and positions, I have finally come to the conclusion it is NOT suitable for me to bath in a baby bath.
Keeping the bathroom clean and tidy is a nightmare especially if its a shared bathroom. I saw this idea all over the internet and thought I would add it to my To Do list.
Ideally for this DIY project I would suggest using a Vintage Decanter but vintage is not always affordable or available.
So fake it.
This decanter was on sale at the discount shop for $5.00 (Actually it wasn’t on sale and it was $7.99 but don’t tell my husband that).
It does the job perfectly.
Now I have a very beautiful reason to leave one more thing out on the counter top each morning.
What a lovely idea! I absolutely adore crystal decanders–have several, even–but have actually never used them.
i have done this for years i got one from the local value village for about 3$ when we moved into our 1st home!
There should be a caveat here about using actual lead crystal vs glass decanters. Lead crystal decanters can leach lead into liquids stored in them, so be sure to use the cheaper glass (the kind you find for $5 at a discount shop should be fine).
Oh I do this with mouthwash too! So much nicer than having plastic bottles standing around.
Your child-proof lid would also be gone.
Ciarra, I guess if your kids get into everything then that is a valid point to consider. MY children detest mint so I have no chance of them even going near it.
I know I can’t help but wanting to pop everything into crystal now LOL.
