This truly is the smallest change I could make in our powder room. But it has sparked that Marie Kondo joy when I made it!
When Function meets Beauty: The Tale of how a New Soap Dispenser made a HUGE Difference!
Sounds ridiculous I know. But when you’re in a bathroom, doing your business, generally you don’t have any reading material or anything to look at except the bathroom details. That’s actually why our powder became the focus of a “One Room Challenge” in the fall of 2017. At that time I had hated the paint colour, the mirror, the lighting, etc. So we did a makeover that transitioned our powder room from being beige to a little ballsy!
Now back to our soap dispenser issue.
Our Soap Situation – Before
A bar of soap in a our powder room didn’t work well for us so we bought pretty much any foam or liquid soap in whatever scent suited us at the time. Right now I’m LOVING the “Jason” line, specifically their “Tea Tree” scent!
The soap dispenser bottle is not necessarily ugly BUT…I think this one is an improvement on it.
The Find!
It’s from a Canadian store called “Bouclair” and they have so many cute typography items. I bought a few more items for our kiddo’s bathroom.
Aren’t they chic? (Note, this is NOT a sponsored post, just a find that I absolutely love and I had to share with you) 🙂
Here are the specific links to each item:
“Wash your Hands” Soap Dispenser
“Brosse/Brush” Toothbrush Holder
Our Soap Situation – Now!
Come on, isn’t this better?!
Small change but (I think!) it makes a big difference! The look of the powder room is now all in sync versus before, the soap dispenser looked like an eyesore. Isn’t it funny how the details can stand out?! And, no joke, this little changeover really does spark that joy that everyone is talking about. I get a thrill every time I look at it!
Do you notice and change these types of details? Let me know!
Oh! And don’t forget to pin this for later!
