Katrina Kitchen Scrub
I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love cooking, but I hate the cleanup. Washing all the dishes and wiping up any mess you made kind of detracts from the enjoyment of eating something delicious made in your own kitchen. Part of the reason washing dishes is awful is because regular dish brushes just don’t clean off the stuck-on food from the plates, pots, and pans. They are difficult to maneuver and you can’t angle it well in those hard to reach corners.
To fix this, I made these adorable kitchen scrubs! They have a strap on the backside, so it molds to your hand, and it has puff stitches, so you get that extra friction to help scrub off those difficult spots. They are quick to make, and very beginner-friendly!
