Topic: Handy Hint for the day Posted: 13 May 2008 at 3:37pm |
Washing baskets are *fantastic* (I resisted the urge to use capitals Deb!) for racing around the house and throwing everything into that could be making the place look messy!!! Then throw the full washing basket into a cupboard and ....voila....you have a tidy house!!

Really? I would never have guessed that. Can't say I have ever done that [and then hid it on DHs side of the bed that can't be seen from the door]  . Nope, no experience there at all.

That reminds me of when we had our house for sale in the uk and I hid all the dirty dishes in the oven and cupboards while the estate agent took the pics of my fantastically clean and uncluttered kitchen

*Raises hand* I had a meeting at my house last Thursday, and I turfed some dirty dishes in the garage while my guests were here. I just remembered they're still in there... EWWW!!!! LOL

I *knew* there was a reason why I can never find a washing basket - they're all full of random bits and pieces all over the house...
And Katherine - ewwww!
