Today I'm going to tell you how to clean your washing machine because if yours is anything like mine then it could probably do with some love! Have you ever noticed how dirty your washing machine can get inside? They clean so much dirt and grime off our clothes so it's only natural that they do get a bit grubby inside but it's really important to keep on top of cleaning it because that'll not only help it to clean your clothes better, it will also help the machine itself last longer. I'm much better at cleaning mine now than I used to be and last weekend was washing machine cleaning … [Read more...]

Homemade Febreze for under 20p a bottle….
I've been making homemade Febreze for years now and often share in my weekly Five Frugal Things posts when I've made up a new batch but today, I'm going to update and reshare the original post when I told you about it for a couple of reasons. Let me tell you why...The first reason is simply that I treated myself to a new spray bottle as the one I used to use was looking more than a bit grubby and I just wanted to show off the prettiness of it although it's shiny white with shiny rose gold lettering on it so definitely doesn't photo as well as I wanted it to. 😂.

They worked really well so I often make a batch to keep in the main bathroom - especially since I discovered that Wilko do boxes of citric acid and baking soda quite cheaply! I used to buy Citric Acid from Amazon which usually cost more than double the boxes I can get in Wilko.There's a couple of reasons I like these … [Read more...]
