Readers Choice- Cleaning products and how to fold a fitted sheet

Two topics today but cleaning related so I put them together. 



Firstly the fitted sheet.  I thought I would turn to the domestic goddess herself for the answer.  Dear lord what a disaster.  I tried, I really did but it is impossible unless you are Martha or the other woman.  I can totally relate to the poor woman who could not do it!!  So I am putting the call out, can anyone actually fold a fitted sheet??!!

Second is the question of what  cleaning products I would use if I could only choose 3.  Hmmm was a tough one but i think I have it sorted. 
  • Bleach or a thick cleaning gel.  I am fine with generic brands of this.  Its not particularly good for the environment but it does a number of jobs like clean the toilet or sink really well.
  • A really good all in one spray.  I like the ones with more natural products in and due to having a small supermarket with not much choice I have been using Earth/s Choice. 
  • The rest of my cleaning supplies if I had to choose  are made up with pantry items- white vinegar and bicarb.  The vinegar can be used as a floor cleaner or diluted in a spray bottle as a window cleaner.  Bicarb is great for using as a paste on tough stains and also as a deodoriser in the fridge or kitty litter tray.

Love the topics this week, I am off now to tangle myself in a fitted sheet again just so I can say I have folded one properly!!

  1. Oh, my gosh! I thought I was the only one! I'm so glad to hear that others also struggle with the fitted sheet. I would be embarrassed if someone ever went into my linen closet!

  2. I saw an awesome way to fold sheets a few months ago. The linen cupboard looked awesome. Instead of having all separate piles, they put the sheet sets together in one of the pillowcases so they were much neater.
