Instead, you can invest in vintage decants for storage of liquids like soap, shampoo, etc. Minimize the labels from your countertop for an instant facelift. These bottles are readily available in a thrift store and are very helpful in providing a chic storage option. You can also upscale your used mason jars and put a few twigs to complete the look.
