    Oooh, which to go for? I like the colours in the Orelie lightening deal, but what colours might they put for the defea later on??? So tempting... Any advice?

    Recently they seem to be favouring the salmon pink, dazzling beige, mineral blue & sky blue.

    I like the sky blue. Looks quite bright. The beige is good too, but I do have a beige kipling already.
    Thanks for the tip a page back about the 20% off for signing up to the newsletter.

    Oh, can I ask some advice from you kipling experts? Some of my bags are looking a bit grubby, but my friend said when she machine washed hers, it ruined it! Can I put it in the machine and if so, what temp/setting do you think would be best?

    I've never washed one in the machine, I tend to handwash them with just a little bit of Stardrops.

    What's 'Stardrops' Geri1965? I have a Gabbie in urgent need of cleaning but as it's my favourite bag, I just don't trust throwing it in the washing machine! :shocked:

    :)

    A 30 wash is perfect - do remove monkey as his tag will fray & the writing will wash off.

    Above 30 is a no no.

    40 makes the fabric go all crinkly :o

    I know you're all gonna think I'm crazy, but I don't like the monkeys and I remove them anyway!

    I may try hand washing with stardrops first (I got mine cheap in Home Bargains if anyone is looking for it) and if they don't come up clean enough, I'll try the machine on a low temp. Thanks for the tips!

    If you don't sell on your kiplings you should sell your monkeys on eBay get some money back
