Potting Sheds
I guess I am more of a shabby, rustic, country type Potting Shed Girl.
We need a new potting/storage shed.
I am loving all these ideas.

Didn't I totally forget to tell you how the laundry soap worked? Brilliant! I am so happy I tried it. The laundry smells so clean. I know that sounds silly but it smells indescribably clean and fresh. I think I am now a convert. Oh, and very white and stains seem to be disappearing so I will soldier on with the homemade. The recipe is basically this:
2 cups borax
2 cups washing soda
1 bar of grated soap (I used Ivory as that was what I had on hand)
baking soda (not all recipes call for this so I used one box for the whole lot)
I mixed as I went and ending up tripling the recipe. The key here is you only require a couple of TABLESPOONS per load. Seriously, this stuff will last forever.
So thrilled ;)

No cobwebs and rusty mowers for me!xxx
Glad that the laundry recipe worked.
These ideas for a potting shed are great. I have always wanted a potting shed... Please fill us in on what you decide.
That sounds good - will have to try that recipe - thanks for sharing!
Oh how I'd love a wee shed at the bottom of the garden that I could go hide it.
Loving your homemade soap powder recipe I'll definately be giving it a try if I can find anywhere that sells Borax.
I'd love a potting shed or something similar in my garden..a real escape!! ;-)
Glad the washing powder worked! x
Hi there, I am hosting a book swap over on my blog. It is a permanent feature, which will always be on my blog, it is not a one off, like the rose theme swap I'm hosting. I have listed a load of my books which I am willing to swap, take a look, there may be some you fancy. If you would like to list books which you no longer want, and are willing to swap, just contact me at rosehyacinth@hotmail.co.uk, or leave a comment on my blog, with your name, the name of your blog and the books you wish to swap, and I will type them up and post them on the swap page, so the more and more people who participate, the wider the range of books there will be to choose from, and remember, it will always be there on my blog.
Take Care

I love potting sheds too - always love if they have a feature on sheds in Country Homes & Interiors so these photographs are great! Your washing powder sounds fantastic!
I love visiting your blog, it's always such a pretty place to come and hang out. I would love my own shed. It would be pretty and rose-clad on the outside, and incredibly neat and tidy on the inside. It would be big enough for a stove with a kettle on it for tea, and have a chair next to the stove for when I'd done enough potting up.
Hello, first I must say your blog is so cheery. I love every bit of it. I am glad that I am going to follow you. Please stop by for a visit. PS you would look look with the Reese haircut. XO MARY
That shed is so similar to the ones that they take from the inspiration it is amazing when you can realize everything that you want and that the result will be the expected.Generic Viagra Buy Viagra
