A Spring Clean for your Car Interior

It finally seems like we may be bidding farewell to the snow and heading for a mild and pleasant spring. But many of you car owners out there may still be seing evidence of the snowy season tramped into their car carpets and upholstery, which can be extremely difficult to remove.

To remove quickly and easily, mix up a soution of equal parts warm water and white vinegar and spray onto affected areas. Then gently rub with a soft clean cloth, and repeat process until the stain is gone.

And there you go, how you can give your car interiors a clean for spring!

Turn Bath Time into Play Time with Whipped Bath Paints

For many families, bath time can turn into an all out war between parent and child, with kids doing everything possible to avoid having a wash. But the key to getting kids in the bath voluntarily is simple, make bath time fun with whipped bath paints! Homemade bath paints are not only cheap and easy to make, but kids will love the colours and foamy texture, and they'll be washing at the same time because the paints are made from Soap Flakes!

To make bath paints, simply add 100ml of water to 50grams of Soap Flakes, and whisk until the mixture has the consistency of beaten egg whites. Spoon the mixture into plastic cups and add food colouring as desired. Then let your little angels get to work on the side of the bath!

Note:

After using whipped bath paints it is recommended to clean your bath with White Vinegar to remove any colour residue. Any acidic cleaners should be used with caution on vitreous enamel surfaces.

Smelly washing machine? Bad smells gone for good!

I keep hearing of people having problems with smelly washing machines recently, so I thought i'd just let everyone know there is a very easy way to get rid of this problem once and for all!

Simply run the washing machine empty on a 60degree wash (or hotter if the smell is really bad!) with a half a bag of Soda Crystals split between the drawer and the drum. Once this is finished, run the machine on empty again, but this time replace the Soda Crystals with 500ml of White Vinegar to remove limescale build up and finish the cleaning process.

This should get rid of the bacteria causing all the bad smells for good!

Fluffy Towels!

We've just found a really easy way to make your towels lovely and fluffy again using Soda Crystals and White Vinegar!

Simply soak towels in a warm solution of Soda Crystals for 10minutes and then rinse with warm water until the water runs clear. Then wash your towels in the washing machine as normal, but replace fabric softner with a cup of White Vinegar. Dry your towels on the line outside and voila! your towles will be lovely and fluffy and as good as new!

Enjoy!
