Bathroom Happy Place
This fancy bar soap bathroom hack is pretty much everything. Ahh, so this is what 'happy place' smells like.
At first, the bougie bar of soap on a rope I got for my birthday seemed like the stupidest gift ever. I mean...soap? Then its luxe smell hit me square in the face - and I immediately decided to turn it into the long-lasting air freshener of my rich-lady dreams by hanging it on my bathroom doorknob...you're welcome."
