Ok, I admit it, it’s been a month! We’re all under a lot of pressure right now so, I gotta give it up to my bathroom for being my bts bestie. She’s almost impenetrable to afternoon guitar lessons, stir-crazy dogs, and that evergrowing pile of dishes. Has anyone ever had so many dishes and laundry piles in their life?

Not news, but I’ve always been an advocate of a calm and quiet bathroom. I just light a candle and let it all just wash away. We’ve literally coined the team Simply Spaced hashtag #getcalm. Thanks, Nicole.

Now, I realize not everyone is a bath fan (Shira Gill), but I’m telling you, it’s magic. Regardless of what side of the fence you are on, it is possible to turn your bath and beauty areas into a spa-like oasis. Fresh towels, a potted plant, your favorite candle. It doesn’t take a lot, but piles of clothes and overflowing drawers don’t make for a get calm moment.  So, where to start?

The answer is always, declutter first.
