A little home keeping idea..


Good Evening everyone.. 

So glad you are taking the time to drop by ... 
You are all so NICE... smile..

It is a bit rainy here tonight but it is supposed to be clearing off by morning..
 Terry is heading for the farm tomorrow with our youngest son to do a bit of work but I think I need to stay home and accomplish a few things.. 

Time is flying by and in only a few weeks now we should be opening the

As usual, this world class procrastinator is only starting to get motivated... I ask you... What is my problem??..

What ever it is I have been blessed with it for most of my life..
smile.. 

Oh well, I am one of those people who work much better under pressure...
(rolling my eyes..)

ANYWAY...

I thought I would show you a simple home keeping chore that I worked on one day this week..


Some everyday dishcloths.. 

I saw that someone had made them on a couple of blogs and
I loved them..

 Also..I had several old towels that were pretty ragged so I decided to give them a try... 

One old towel made 8 dishcloths...

I was wondering how well they would work so I gave one a try..

They are lovely.. 

As you can see, I hand wash our dishes.. 

We have a dishwasher but because of our water hardness the dishes do not turn out great in the dishwasher.. 

So... I wash them by hand..

I could say that there are only two of us but to be honest I have as many dirty dishes as a family of five...

I haven't figured that one out yet either.. smile..


If you would like to sew a few of these up and recycle your old towels or flannel sheets you can find the tutorial  HERE..


I would love to find a good homemade dish washing liquid, too.. 

I now have Gain which my dear friend Ethel picked up for me in the U.S. because we don't have it here in Canada and I love the smell..

I am so fickle when it comes to scent... 

If you happen to have a good recipe then I would love to have it.. 

I looked up recipes but they call for Castile soap which we do not have here, either... 

Well, my dears that is about it for tonight..

Sometimes, I wonder if I am boring you all silly .. 
Perhaps, I should just post pictures.. smile.. 

Thank you so much for all your sweet comments and visits.. 
Until we chat again.. 
God bless...
