SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND CUTE

Pink123 — Tue, 05 Dec 2023 20:02:23 GMT

I don't care for the steel things you hang over dish holders onto the sink as I prefer a clean minimalist look.

Well I found this "sponge" holder, matches the beige and white sponge to the decor and I find it to be adorable. So much better than those scotch bright green and yellow sponges, ugh.

Thought some of you might like it too. The scrubber part is biodegradable made of walnut and coconut shell. Other side of sponge stays white.

@Pink123 I have a similar sponge holder that's ceramic which I purchased on Etsy several years ago. I agee it look much nicer than the metal ones that stick (and fall off all of the time!) with suction cups. What is the name of the beige sponge?

@Pink123 LOL! I have that at my kitchen sink! I also have a white elephant that holds my scrubber (sos pad). I love them, they are really cute and serve a purpose.

Hey @haddon9 I will check. It's on Amazon with very good reviews. Put it in the washing machine. I read it does not shed.

Ok, it's called "Panyee" natural 12 count. 14.99. 4.6 review which is very good.

I searched several and many shed the beige part and did not read it on this one so purchased. Pretty good value and 4.6 is great review number.

Nice! that's a great idea. We have our sponge in an old plastic container on the sink. Not nice looking at all.

Am I the only one that doesn't store them ? I use the one time I do dishes and then throw them in the washing machine, dish washer or ,if they are dirty, in the trash .

I don't think it's necessary @Danky2 to throw them away after each use. To be honest, I've never heard of this, but to each his own.

But I do know people put them in the dishwasher or dryer. Good ones can last awhile.

@Pink123 I know it is not environmentally correct but these have food, germs, etc all

over them. I only put them in the washer if nothing else is going in besides kitchen stuff.

Maybe I am not buying a good one....I buy the O-cellos with harsh on one side and regular on the other. Can you recommend one you like ? TIA

Yes @Danky2 The ones I purchased at Amazon. They come in a package od 9 I think.

Are biodegradable and so good for environment. Cost effective too.

I started to keep mine in a tiny decorative loaf pan on the window sill. It looks cute. A sponge, pan scraper and a metal scouring pad.

After reading this post, I went onto Amazon and found the sponges. Then I searched for ceramic sponge holders. There are so many really cute ones in different styles. One of the holders I saw was copper, and another had a marbled finish. Now I need to decide which one I like best! This will look much prettier than the old metal holder with suction cups I have now that’s always falling from the sink, plus it’s in the way.
