Clotheslines & Warmers




They actually have nothing to do with each other except for the fact that I’m obsessed with them both at the moment. I’m a new fan of warmers, I had never had one until this past week (I know, I’m a bit behind in the times), I always have candles, especially around fall time & I had a few I had been lighting a lot lately, then I started finding black soot in my nose (gross, I know), now my candles weren’t the newest candles ever, & heaven knows they were probably cheap to begin with so I decided it was time to buy some new fall scented candles, so I went to Wal-mart (where this cheap girls loves to shop). Long story short, I ended up with 2 warmers (the kind that plug in) & about 5 different scents (I about died when the cashier said my total) but I am in LOVE with them, & I would highly suggest you try them (although most people probably already have), the warmers from Wal-mart are just fine but if Scentsy is in your budget they have a ton of really cute warmers.



These are the 2 I got from Wal-mart, the right one is my favorite, it’s made by ScentSationals & it’s called Cityscape. The other one is made by Better Homes & Gardens & it’s called Expressions.


And here is my other current obsession…




My husband & I just recently bought a house, & while we absolutely LOVE our home we’ve had plenty of problems to come along with it, we’ve not even owned it for 6 months & we’ve had the stove put on a firework display in the kitchen (sparks, smoke, loud popping noises, the whole nine yards). The roof leaked & it went down into the wall & into a electric outlet (no fire started thank goodness) & somehow when we were testing out the appliances before we bought the house we somehow missed the dryer, which doesn’t work. For months we’ve been taking clothes to the laundromat (which gets expensive) & sometimes we take it to my grandma’s house & do our laundry there (it is a 45 min drive but comes with perks like yummy dinners & a comfy sofa to cuddle up on in between loads) but I was tired of not being able to do laundry at my own house so I finally broke down & got a clothesline, I was going to buy the actual line & hardware to hang it but I found a retractable clothesline instead, which is perfect since I hung it in the carport (I had a fear of birds pooping on my clothes) & this way we can easily retract it if we want to park in our carport. I didn’t think I would care for having a clothesline instead of a dryer but I actually love it & enjoy going out to hang my laundry up. Just one more thing to prove I should have been born before my time, We’ll talk about that in another post.
