LAUNDRY ROOM BLUES

Whew!  We came in last night from being out-of-town for four days and, I had a PILE of laundry 'staring' me in the face this morning.  I don't know about you, but, a large pile of laundry can be overwhelming.  I decided to "fight back" today with a few of my "tried and true" FLAIR tricks for getting me in the mood for getting the laundry pile GONE!

STEP 1:  Make sure you LOVE the smell of your detergent!  Gain is my ABSOLUTE favorite brand.  Once you turn on the washing machine the wonderful scent of detergent will make you feel like singing! 

STEP 2:  Here is the PILE I was telling you about!  Do not stare at your laundry too long and get overwhelmed, instead, GET GOING and make it disappear! 

STEP 3:  Turn on a favorite television show to watch while you are folding clothes.  For instance, I really enjoy and gain inspiration from watching FOOD TV.  While you fold clothes, you are likely to get inspired about cooking dinner this week.  * Multi-tasking.....very important!

STEP 4:  This is a MUST!  Don a fun pair of flip flops or shoes to complete your laundry and other daily 'chores' in.  Every time you look at your feet, you will smile!  Fun shoes really do help make your mood better as you 'whistle around' your house!  I found this pair for $9.00 last week at Holliday's.

STEP 5:  Great music!  Play a favorite CD or use your iPod.  Turn up the volume as loud as you can tolerate and, work, work, work!  I LOVE listening to music while I am completing house work!

STEP 6:  Brew a pot of coffee or, make a cup of tea.  You can sip the coffee as you are folding and putting away the laundry.  

STARBUCKS

STEP 7:  Light a favorite candle and, enjoy the scent while you work.

I promise, you WILL feel more motivated to get the laundry all finished if you follow my easy "tricks".  Do not let a large pile of dirty laundry dampen your day.  Use my easy 7 steps and, get going!  You will feel GREAT once all the clothes are put neatly away.  Now, this is what I call doing laundry with "FLAIR"!  Try this system out and, I would love to know how it works for you!

FLAIR CANDLE OF THE MONTH

This candle burning in our home during the spring months makes me want to jump and shout, "HAPPY SPRING EVERYONE!".  Truly a luxurious scent and, the scent reaches across your house.  DIVINE!  By Seda France, the scent is FRENCH TULIP. 

Available at CANDLE LUXURY.   Order yourself one today!  You will not regret it! 


The body wash is sold in a pretty bottle and, the same awesome scent smells wonderful as you wash your hands.  FLAIR TIP:  I currently have this soap in our guest bathroom beside the sink.  A real treat for guests!  A great deal, on sale now, for $8.00.  This will easily last a year.  I change guest soaps each season, and, you will get one to two seasons use per bottle. This item can be purchased at SEDA FRANCE. 

Last week, I was shopping at a wonderful local stationary and gift store called The Stovall Collection and, this store had the FRENCH TULIP candle by Seda France in this GORGEOUS new container.  This would look AMAZING in a guest bathroom or in your living room.  STUNNING and, after the candle is finished burning, you could buy a replacement or, keep the beautiful container as a decorative piece.  

FLAIR TIP:  This would make an ideal gift for that person who can be difficult to buy for.  Who wouldn't enjoy such a beautiful gift?
