When you’re living in a small space there’s always that difficulty of where to put all the stuff. Especially if you don’t have a broom closet, finding a place to store all your cleaning supplies and tools can be a real issue. One of my favorite solutions to this problem is a fairly simple one: just buy cleaning tools you won’t mind leaving out. Perhaps you never thought that a dustpan could be beautiful, but that’s because you haven’t seen these dustpans. These dustpans and brushes and brooms and things are so beautiful that you might want to display them prominently, or even pass them on to your grandchildren. Feast your eyes.

You definitely won’t want to hide this away in a closet. In fact, you may not want to sully it with your dirt at all. But it sure is beautiful.
