well SORT of recycling. If you like pricking, I bought a kneel on mat for the garden, and cut it into 2 and it makes a perfect pricking mat. You can get 2 sorts one really fine sponge and one that's quite "loose or holey" the tight ones are the best.
I'm trying to work out how you get your ribbons inside the washing up liquid bottles, Jen, or have I got the wrong end of the stick?
I always save an old tee shirt for cleaning windows, brasses and jewellery.
Always have an old pop bottle with one of those contraptions on for watering seedlings, that have a little spray on the end. (not the seedlings, the contraption!!)image

HI DOT!! nice to see you x
