I got these bathtub soap dishes to hold a duck shaped loofa in my kitchen. The resulting cuteness was overwhelming. I love it! I am a little worried about the potential for rust on a metal item that will live next to my sink. I am also planning on using a couple of the bathtub dishes as mini planters for succulents. Something that also requires regular watering. However, they are so cute I am willing to take the risk and I am hopeful hopeful that it will be okay.
