I revisit these spots all the time for encouragement. I have made LOTS of the beautiful clothespins as gifts. Your room spray recipes are now "staples" in our home. Thank you for encouraging all of us to love our homes as a way of showing a love for our family and our Lord.

I LOVE IRONING, there I said it. I realize most people don't but I find ironing calming and very fulfilling, to see a pile of clean laundry all ironed hung or folded makes me feel like I did something. Also a few years in a row I use to help out the dry cleaner just around the corner where we lived, I would do it from 12pm to 3pm while the children were in school. I could iron a man's dress shirt in 9 minutes, I wonder if the record still stands.hee hee.tealadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17233373939739704642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137578215906638858.post-60345984229868694822016-07-18T13:47:37.438-05:002016-07-18T13:47:37.438-05:00So glad you stopped by and thank you for the kind ...So glad you stopped by and thank you for the kind comment! :)JEShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08300505126646960374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137578215906638858.post-73260604309350492942016-07-18T11:35:49.888-05:002016-07-18T11:35:49.888-05:00I have found you from The Modest Mom link up.

I too have never been a great lover of ironing clothes but lately I have discovered it can actually be quite theraputic and ah... I love the sight of a pile of freshly pressed clothing to be put away... Sometimes I will watch a lovely period movie such as Wives and Daughters to remind me of how wonderful it is to be a lady and to be responsible for all the simple home duties... Thank you for your sweet inspiration ~ I loved how you compiled beautiful quotes, paintings and ideas for this task!

Had to iron my Dad's underwear, weird style was hard to get wrinkles out. Ironed his hankies and pillow cases also, now this was in 1948.<br /> I hang our laundry out and we always have good breeze so shirts & skirts look like have been ironed from wind. Don't iron as much as used to but some things just have to be, love smell from ironing, love nicely ironed tablecloths, table runners, doilies, pillow covers I make. Seems like when I do iron make big day of it, keep finding more and more to iron/touch up. Have great weekend<br />srpprcrftrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02861352034915359506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137578215906638858.post-18464187132840820062016-07-15T12:36:08.286-05:002016-07-15T12:36:08.286-05:00Great idea about listening to a lecture or audio b...Great idea about listening to a lecture or audio book.
