Lose the Junk

I have been working hard the last few weeks to complete a Clean House Challenge that I was working on in the Spring. This week I tackled just a couple of spots in my kitchen.

I have people help with dishes and sometimes that is not so wise. I forgot to take before photos but basically I have a silverware drawer then junk mix drawers. I removed everything and started over. I am not sure how I never thought of putting the small cutting boards that get used all the time in a drawer but when I reorganized everything, the thought came to me and its been GOLDEN. I  hope to create a divider thing for the silverware, we bought the wood but we haven't had time yet. My poor organize holder is 22 years old. 

I love this little cart, somehow it always feels with junk though.

I had some odds and ends so I allowed them to stay in this tiny drawer.

Now knifes have their own drawer, this was needed for sure.

This is my favorite part of the To Do list, reorganizing all these Kitchen Utensils. These little picnic baskets were perfect. I hope to put a light in the cabinet though as it gets very dark and is hard to see. More obstacles to conquer in the following months.

Purex Plus Clorox 2 Giveaway

Giveaway for One Coupon to TWO Winners of Purex plus Clorox 2 Stain Fighting Detergent

My husband is probably the one with the most stained clothes. Most everything is very set in so its difficult to maybe test this detergent for a true accurate account of how well it works with his shirts. When I picked up our son at college I knew this pillow was on my list. I was a little embarrassed to bring it down from his dorm. It is VERY Yellow, and just a little gross honestly. I think going to bed with wet hair probably isn't the best idea.

Surprisingly it is only a year old. I asked him about washing it, he said sure give it a try. He was just going to buy another one.

I washed it with Purex Plus Clorox 2 Stain Fighting Liquid Detergent. I did use hot water in this load with a cold water rinse. It does note on the bottle that you can "Pre-treat tough stains by rubbing some Purex Plus Clorox 2 detergent into the fabric and let it sit for 5 minutes before washing." I think on clothing this would be a great option for those spaghetti sauce, juice, oil stains.

He was amazed that it wasn't yellow anymore. It also smelled wonderful which was great. Constant wet hair smell on a pillow isn't so great. It was gentle enough that it didn't bother the fabric of the pillow like bleach itself might. It really has a bright clean appearance and what I love is that it is safe on colors too, so no bleach spots from the accidental splashing when adding bleach to a laundry load. I can tell you I have a few clothing items from that issue.

Purex plus Clorox 2 detergent works on 100 stains through their stain fighting enzymes. What is nice is that sometimes OXY CLEAN which is used so commonly in detergent can leave my skin feeling itchy. This product doesn't have that issue with its safe bleach additive.
