Fabric Swap Goodies

Look what Mr Posty bought me this morning! I must say I was very excited. I was feeling in rather a grump today and this cheered me up no end. It's my fabric swap parcel from Olivia at Victoria Plum.

Look at the stunning array of goodies she sent me. three fat quarters of the prettiest fabric. The two spotty ones will come in very handy, I haven't any small spotty fabric left and I'm loving the pastel shades of these two. Also the light blue piece has a very pretty floral design on. These three will be great for making tilda dolls. Olivia also sent me two pieces of felt, some bootiful spotty and gingham ribbon and some pretty stripey buttons. And then more goodies. A lovely smelly vanilla Yankee candle melt, some Cath Kidston Sweet William seeds, and Cath Kidston pin tin and pincushion. I feel totally overwhelmed by Olivia's generosity. I'm so chuffed with my swap goodies. Thank you sooooo much. (((BIG HUGS))).  I just hope my parcel arrives with Olivia (this is the parcel that has gone missing :o(  ) I'm on holiday next week but if it still hasn't turned up by then I will be sending Olivia some more goodies. xxx

Now.....this week has involved major household cleaning. Something I detest, in fact I'd rather put pins in my eyes! lol. Yesterday I started to tackle my kitchen, the first job being the dreaded cupboard under the sink AARRRGGG. I shocked myself with the amount of cleaning products I had under there. (There are more on the floor not pictured too :o{ I had 3 and half bottles of washing up liquid 2 new tins of Mr muscle oven cleaner. which is hilarious as i never clean my oven. (but lovely hubby did it on Sunday with oven pride for me, i owe him big time) Three kitchen sprays, Two cream cleaners and enough cloths for the street, amongst other things. This is a ridiculous amount of stuff and I don't think I'll need to buy any products for a while. I probably only ever use a few basic products the rest of the time I like to use white vinegar, so god only knows why I've got it all.

Anyhow this is how my manky old falling apart kitchen cupboard looked after.

A big improvement I think. I also cleaned all the kitchen, including the cutlery drawer and today I'm finishing off, run out of steam yesterday. I've taken my fridges apart today and have given them a major clean, done loads of washing, including the lounge curtains taken out the rubbish, been up the shop, walked the dogs, taken hubby his lunch and I'm about to clear out the lounge for a deep clean. I'm really gonna need that holiday next week.

Don't forget to enter my giveaway. Your chance to own some domestic goddess-ness. (DON'T WORRY IT'S NOT THE CONTENTS OF MY CUPBOARD)

Well off to clean some more folks. I hope to be done so I can watch Britain's got talent tonight. I loved Tina and Chandi last night, that dog is amazing.
