I can come up with some great solutions.
Really.
But the hidden ones rarely work.
While I’d love for my house to look perfect at all times, some of the ways we make things work keep it from looking perfect.
Half-full (or worse, ALMOST full) water bottles grate on my nerves. I try to avoid letting them happen, but they happen. To keep from wasting the nobody’s-gonna-to-drink-it-now water, we use it to water the plants.
Actually, Hubby does. In our house, he’s the one who handles NOT killing plants.
When one of the irritating bottles appears, everyone knows to take it to a certain spot in the breakfast area.
But as I found when I decluttered/switched-out-old-storage-containers-for-new-ones recently, I once had the really great idea to put them in a less obvious spot. A logical spot.
Logical + Less Obvious = Doesn’t Work ‘Round Here.
Really, it would be so nice if those eyesores could be two feet away, hidden inside a cabinet.
Oh well.
