My biggest challenge was decluttering around the bath. I removed a laundry basket of clutter (candles, soaps, bath products and shells). I have added back two small houseplants, a couple of candles, one tea light candle lantern and kept just one bottle of bubblebath and one soap. It seems like a lot - but it is much less than what was there.
I'm not sure how it got so cluttered. I had made it quite impossible to clean and it looked messy and unrestful - not really what I wanted for a relaxing bath time retreat. I have a habit of adding too many accessories and loosing my whole intention for the space. I want to keep it clear and uncluttered from now on.
The next challenge was cleaning the windows and shower screen. I tackled that by using my hand steamer and good old Mr Muscle with a microfibre cloth just to buff off any streaks. It came up sparkling clean. The steamer really does loosen soap scum. I will be using it more often for this job - it was quick and efficient.
I also removed a bath mat from the floor and cleared the vanity of a few too many bathroom products. I've just left the toothbrushes and soap as these are what is used most often.
The result is a calmer, cleaner space that is easier to keep clean and organised :-)
