I Walked Into My Aunt’s Bathroom and Found a Wooden Clothespin Clipped to the Shower Head. The Reason Surprised Me.

The Strange Bathroom Habit

My aunt has always been the kind of person who knows dozens of old-fashioned household tricks.

The type of tricks that never appear in commercials and don’t require spending money on expensive products.

Many of them came from her mother and grandmother.

Over the years, she had shown me clever ways to remove stains, freshen up a room, and even keep insects away without chemicals.

Still, a clothespin hanging from a shower head seemed odd.
