Playing For You From Our Scented Cottage..

Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

Save Your Broom...


Do you find yourself going through alot of brooms? You can add new life to fiber brooms by washing them occasionally in 2 quarts of warm water to which has been added 4 tablespoons of household ammonia. Let the bristles soak in this for half an hour. Rinse in clear warm water and then hang them up in a cool place to dry. Never stand a broom or brush on its bristles in the closet. If you hang it up so the bristles don’t touch the floor this prevents the brush from losing its shape or wearing out sooner than necessary.
