The Shark Steam. I love it.
*yawn* I know, right? A steam cleaner? Seriously? But – bear with me. Because I love this little purple baby. I really do. And I’m no clean freak. In fact, I try very hard to do as little housework as I possibly can. Sadly, with four children, a giant puppy-dog, and living in deepest darkest mud-filled rural Dorset, a certain amount is necessary. Particularly on the floors. I have hardwood flooring and tiles throughout...
Spotted! The Teapot!
I have been searching for some time for the perfect teapot. Made of china, not too kitsch, not too twee, but not too funky either.

He’ll read them...
Dr. Beckmann Colour & Dirt Collector Sheets
So school approaches – and with it the dreaded return of the laundry pile.

I’ll separate whites and coloured. Mostly. But term time the uniform all gets bunged in together – grey trousers, red jumpers and white...

Fabulous sign from the the Fabulous The Contemporary Home. That is all.
Dr Beckmanns’ service-It
Dullness, I know. Washing. Machine. Cleaner. But don’t you get all sniffy yet. Because I was all sniffy – till I used it. And now my washing machine sparkles inside. more importantly my clothes smell better – and are definitely cleaning better. You know that bad smell you get when you leave the door closed on your machine? That’s from the bacteria build up in your pipes and oojamaflips inside the machine, where...
