    Makes me wish I had a tumble dryer just to try all these ideas out but I guess that's not so money saving as a good ole' fashioned washing line ;D

    So do the bounce sheets really work to repel mozzys? Does anyone know? I asked this on Cathys Mozzy thread a few days ago as I had heard of it before but on-one's replied ???

  • OMG!! I cant believe all these things to do with Bounce sheets!!! :o
    i have been using quite a lot of them this summer, what with it being so wet. :(
    the only things i never hang out on the line these days are towels. i find they come out much softer in the dryer. I hate drying myself on towels that feel like cardboard!! :-[
    i will defo try out making my own when my box runs out!! great idea! thanks :D
    just wish Asda made their own brand............ :-/

    * cough

    If you are the owner of 100 J cloths

    sew them together and make a jaunty bedspread for when guests come,  they will be impressed.

    make a tent

    make a dress

    make curtains

    impregnate them with softener and make scenty awning for your caravan ;D ;D ;D ;D

    Or use them to wrap your joint of meat or chicken/turkey. :o You won't need to baste it and for those that still the crackling of pork - this comes out a treat ;)
    It's gotta be a j-cloth though, none of these spongy cloths will do!
    Needless to say, it's got to be a clean one ::)

    No it truly does. An American relative gave me the tip and I wasn't entirely convinced but it worked with a chicken. I tried a leg of pork and couldn't believe how crispy the crackling came out. We had to throw it away though, as none of us eat it..... But it looked nice! ;D

    The only thing ....you have to make sure to take the cloth off soon after taking out of the oven, otherwise it gets stuck to the meat.
