Dish Soap In Disguise




My mom and I have a wise idea for disguising our bottles of dish soap. We don't like having soap containers sitting out on our kitchen counters, and we don't like to have to get the soap out from under our sinks. Instead, we put our dish soap in decorative olive oil bottles, which are pleasing to the eye and quite handy. You can find an olive oil bottle that matches your kitchen decor, in many styles and colors. If you can't find the perfect one for your kitchen, you can purchase a plain one and paint your own design on it.






We like how the spout at the top allows you to pour just the right amount of soap.







We also think this makes a great hostess or house warming gift. During the holidays, you can find bottles with special designs or paintings, like poinsettias or holly berries. If you like this wise design idea, you can find this bottle and many more at Paisley Creek. We have even seen, and purchased, some of our olive oil bottles at Ross and TJMaxx.

                         Your dish soap never looked so good!!

  1. Hi Al,
    As you could see at lunch today, I used your idea with the olive oil bottle for dish soap. But I was having trouble getting the thick soap to pour out easily so I filled the container about 1/2 to 3/4 full of liquid soap and then added water. Now it pours just fine. Next time I am at the Saturday Farmers Market in Chico I want to buy another blown glass olive oil container from the glass blower. His model would work much easier than the one I am using (like yours pictured) because the spout is different and it is easier to grab with soapy, wet hands. Thanks for another cool and wise idea!
