Since getting rid of the big cabinet that was in the conservatory we have noticed that the sitting room is so much brighter and lighter. The sun is able to flood in and light up the whole room. We haven't missed it one bit and it's actually a relief to get rid of stuff that is only being kept for the sake of it. I'm working my way through the china and cutlery in the kitchen now. I have put together a box filled with pans, cake tins, china and teaspoons ready to drop off at the charity shop this coming weekend and I have barely scratched the surface.
My friend has just had a sofa and carpet cleaned... £170. My carpet shampooer.. £119. The cost of the new carpet would have been £764... just the carpet... no underlay. I've shampooed the carpet and it's made a huge difference and saved me an absolute fortune. Now that it's all dry I have had a move around of the plants. The living room looks so much bigger and the plants look lovely in the conservatory.
The chestnut rug is waiting to be shampooed. I was going to do it this morning and put it outside to dry but the weather can't make up its mind whether to rain or not.
