I've seen her around for 3 years and her hair always looks thriving. I'm a little reluctant to try but it seems to work from all I've heard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942522681264332044.post-72857203685807455542013-10-06T12:10:14.173+01:002013-10-06T12:10:14.173+01:00And finally, the toilet charges.

I really prefer when they have a sign up saying how much they expect to be honest. It's usually 50c, sometimes 1 euro and I've even seen it as low as 20c some places. Since the toilets were spotless, I didn't mind this time though. If there's a choice and the toilets are not in good shape then I won't give anything, I'm mean like that.

I just use about one part cider vinegar to two parts water in a pint jug - pour it into my hair after having washed it (with just water) and leave it in for the few minutes it takes to wash the rest of me before rinsing it out.

But I have always wanted to be able to, ever since I was a little girl and thought when I got over here and had space to set up properly, I'd get stuck in. Haven't gotten around to doing more than build up a stash yet but I've really enjoyed that. I often end up buying a patchwork magazine or two when I'm on holidays, too. I'll try the christmas cushion covers first and see how I get on.Moonwaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16018956740090192993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942522681264332044.post-1199860627909357952013-10-06T10:40:15.311+01:002013-10-06T10:40:15.311+01:0070c to use the toilet!!!

I can't sew at all so I'm always amazed at "crafty" people's sewing and knitting.<br /><br />I'm interested to know about the cider hair conditioner. Have you written a post on this before that you could link me to? I'm keen to try some more natural shampoos/conditioners but don't know where to start.Fionahttp://www.declutterer.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942522681264332044.post-13353837301286628162013-10-06T08:23:55.301+01:002013-10-06T08:23:55.301+01:00Flowers that are past their selling prime was the ...Flowers that are past their selling prime was the biggest score of working in a florist! You'll enjoy them undoubtedly, especially for their lack of impact on your budget! What are your plans for the fabric? I know you read Carla's blog - I'm sure she'll inspire you to make something... I'm tempted to do some sewing lately too, but I just can't work out what. I need something functional.SarahN @ livetolisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01429385342825413879noreply@blogger.com
