 Time to save money on your electricity bills. The days are getting longer, the sun is starting to shine a little more. We may be having frosty mornings, but we are also having some very good drying days. So have a think next time you have laundry to do before you pile your washing into your tumble drier - could it go outside on the line?I know time is precious, but there is something about seeing your washing blowing in the wind and all that free fresh air! I promise you it's worth the extra 5 minutes it takes to hang it out. It just got me thinking yesterday, I was genuinley surprised to feel how well my washing had dried. I was expecting it to be frozen like a board as it was very icy, but no it dried beautifully and I could have ironed it straight away..but chose not to...enough for one day I thought!! Ha ha! Be the envy of your neighbours and don one of these pretty peg pinnies to make even your washing day that bit chic! Or treat yourself to one of my traditional but quirky peg bags.  Any tips you may have I would love to hear! Do send me an email. |
