Description

Red wine on the carpet? Coffee stain on your white t-shirt? Candlewax on the tablecloth? Thrifty Household will save you time and money on hundreds of everyday household problems, with advice on everything from unblocking a sink (if you own a tennis ball but not a plunger) to making your oven sparkle without any toxic chemicals.

Teenagers left a tissue in the laundry? No need for yelling: The Country Women's Association of Victoria Inc. has a trick to deal with it effortlessly. Bothered by summer flies in your kitchen, mozzies at your outdoor dining table or moths in your wardrobe? The Country Women's Association of Victoria Inc. shows you how to get rid of them naturally and make your home smell great at the same time.

The advice is simple, the wisdom is tested, and the tools are found in pretty much every kitchen, laundry, garage or shed: lemon juice, vinegar, essential oils, bicarbonate of soda, salt, methylated spirits. Most are environmentally friendly, and all are thrifty.

Over 1000 hints and tips for the kitchen, bathroom, laundry, car, Christmas, clothing, craft, creepy crawlies, DIY, gardening, floors, food, cleaning EVERYTHING, hair care, health and beauty remedies, ironing, home decorating, jewellery, knitting, pets, sewing, shoes, silver, storage, and stain-removing.
