Here are three easy ways to refresh your bathroom on a budget and combat annoying things like stinky toilets, musty towels, and matted down rugs. You’ll be glad you gave these a try!
- Toilet Fizzies! For this recipe you will need:
- 1 cup Baking Soda
- 1/4 cup Cirtic Acid
- 1 tsp. vinegar,
- 1 Tbsp hydrogen peroxide
- 12-15 drops Essential Oil
Mix together the dry ingredients. Slowly pour the wet ingredients over top (for as little fizz as possible). Form into balls and let dry overnight. Or just place powder directly into container and use a scoop to get it out. Toss into your toilet mid-week for a mini-refresh
2. Combat musty towels! For this recipe you will need:
- 1 cup vinegar
- 1/2 cup baking soda
Add vinegar to your detergent well. Run a cycle of JUST hot water. Sprinkle baking soda onto clothes immediately after cycle and run another of JUST hot water. Presto. Your towels will be SO fresh and clean. We don’t use laundry detergent, you can find out more about Crystal Wash here if you are interested.
3. Refresh your rugs! Wash your rugs and let dry. Spray with a 50/50 vinegar water solution and use a wire brush to bring back to life. Your feet will thank you. Alternatively, you could have a look at some high quality designer rugs and find yourself a new decor item for you bathroom.
Hope you give these a try!

Thank you! This is such an easy fix for mildew and have saved this to my cleaning tips. Love the toilet fizzies and got a giggle out of it! The matted bath mats was also new information for me and Wow! It really does work.
Loved the redo on another of your videos; the girl’s room was a talented way of using available small spaces for storage. As we want to live in a tiny house on wheels for the next year in Australia (we leave from here on Nov. 4th), I am fascinated by how/where these spaces are and can be used. We found spaces in our houses that we bought and renovated between joists for a BBQ tool cabinet. We painted the cupboard to match surrounding wall and had a magnetic closer button. Fun!
Thanks for everiything you teachs to yours fans(me)
Easy and cheap.
Thanks for watching, Rosa!
