Pumpkin patch – It’s never fun dragging a lopsided pumpkin home from the supermarket along with the milk, bread and TP.
The only semi-cold temperatures probably had something to do with why our balloon marbles look so frosty and not all clear and shiny.. Well, they’re still kind of pretty, so it wasn’t a total failure.. And one year, if we still have snow at Easter, I know just what to do!This maybe my favorite little home-keeping pearl of wisdom ever.I love my swiffer.
It’s so easy to use and lightweight and it picks up every little bit of everything from every nook and cranny of my floors.With 2 cats running around here now, I can easily use it 4 or 5 times a day..The only problem with that is that those little disposable cloths that you buy for it can really add up quickly.
But not any more!Here’s how I make my own cloths to reuse.
They really work just as well!.
All you need is some kind of basic fleece fabric.Well, then it took much longer than 5 minutes per coat (more like 20-25) and sometimes I was wearing clothes that I didn’t want to risk getting painty, because the whole process was a lot drippier than I expected, so it just wasn’t convenient to get done in my day-to-day life.
Then I took a weekend and made it my “painting weekend” and things got done.I was already set up and in my painting clothes, just went to the room I was working in for 15 minutes at a time or so, then went and did something else for 15 minutes while it dried, then went back.
I did 12 packs in one weekend and got a lot done around the house too!So dedicate the time.
