I can’t believe how much hidden grime this $6 scrubbing tool pulled out of areas I had already cleaned

Trio of images L-R: taupe kitchen walls, white marble with gray veins on counter, island, open shelving with mint green framed prints and crystal chandelier. Art deco feature black and gold wallpaper with bright pink classic since. Wood cream paneled kitchen walls with lace curtain window and fluted butler sink under mounted on shaker cabinets with brass fixtures and orange-red marble counters.

I have spent a lifetime priding myself on the cleanliness I keep in my home. So when I used a scrubbing brush for the first time, I was shocked at how much hidden grime it pulled out of seemingly clean spots around my home.

Scrubbing brushes weren’t really a thing in my home growing up, so I’ll admit they were not much on my radar. It was only recently that I went on the hunt for a thin cleaning tool to scrub a pesky gap in my bathroom that I realized what I’d been missing out on!
