I'm sharing my streak free homemade window cleaner with you today and although it doesn't make window cleaning any more enjoyable, it does smell nice and is cheaper than the shop bought versions.Some of my most popular posts over the last 12 months have been my homemade cleaning spray, my homemade febreze and my lovely smelling homemade room spray so it seems that I'm not the only one who would rather use chemical free products around the home. ;-)Today I thought I'd share with you my streak free homemade window cleaner although I'm going to hold my hands up and admit … [Read more...]

In the spirit of being sustainable and reusing as much as you possibly can around the house, I thought you might like to see a few ideas on how to reuse glass jam jars.I actually started this post (if taking two photographs counts as starting a post) a good few months ago now and then forgot all about the idea until this week when I saw a post on Facebook about how the owners of the company who make my favourite brand of jam, Bonne Maman, actually hid a family in Paris during World War 2 as part of the Nazi resistance effort.
