@denanddale, I think bottling is a perfectly OK thing to do, as long as you put it in the non-recycling. That's a great idea too as it is kept confined, as forfieting one bottle for the task, is certainly not going to change the world, when you see the rubbish that still makes it into waterways in third world countries, where there is absolutely no recycling, let alone any regard for the environment. Just a thought, if you're worried about your toddler and would like to discard the oil naturally if possible, you could simply dig a hole, perhaps 30cm, a few shovels full of dirt and bury the oil and it should be safe enough not to found and cause a mess with bubs. Just a suggestion.

Reading this thread, the picture I got (maybe from another discussion because I'm sure I've seen this talked about before?) was a dividing line somewhere between a few extra pillows which enhance the bed aesthetically, are potentially useful for sitting up to read a book, and are easily stored elsewhere when not required and too many extra pillows which make the bed look less like a bed and more like a pillow factory, are potentially useful for an attempt at a world record pillow fight, and keep you up all night moving them when you need access to the bed.

There's the two of us, so hubby has, shaver, shaving cream, soap, toothbrush and solvol soap, as he's a mechanic, horrible stuff but it works to remove grease = 5 I have body soap, exfoliating glove, face wash, private wash lol, shampoo, conditioner, comb, shaver, shaving cream and toothbush = 10 Forgot, nail brush, back scrubber AND scissors which makes 13!! All this stuff fits on a shower thingy hanging off the door as there are allot of smaller items. When the new house is finished, rather than a his and hers hob, we're fitting 2 glass shelves and a soap tray for two

Hi Rema, An open plan Living and Dining Room sounds beautiful! There is not one specific rule when deciding where to put your rug. However, as you do have such an open space, they are a great way of zoning those different spaces. If you just have the one rug, I would suggest keeping it in the Living Room as opposed to the Dining Table, but if it isn't working in terms of size, coverage, and layout, I would recommend using it for the Dining Table, if appropriate, and getting a rectangular-shaped rug for your Living Area. Here is an example of a property we styled where we utilised the rug in a way to section off this smaller Living area and create an illusion of a hallway, so the space would still feel open: Hope this helps!
