4. Keep the Countertop Clear and Intentional
A cluttered countertop can make guests feel unsure about what they are allowed to use. In a guest bathroom, less is almost always more.
Clear the counter completely, then add back only what is necessary and beautiful. A soap dispenser, a small tray, and perhaps a candle or small plant are usually enough. Avoid leaving personal products or excess items on display.
Use closed storage for backups and supplies. Guests should never have to move your belongings to access the sink.
An uncluttered countertop communicates clarity, cleanliness, and ease.
