Bad housekeeping

[nancerama]

I've just washed a chenille throw without reading the washing instructions. My patio is now covered in purple snow and my washing machine is like a giant belly button fluff factory.

I'm never going to be able to do a white load again, am I?

I can't talk! Cleaned our bedroom yesterday abd was thick with dust!

It's taken much of the day, but I think I've finally cleared up the last of the fluff disaster. I had to vacuum out the inside of the washing machine

Did the throw survive or is it forevermore a mound if washing machine belly button fluff? :)

I can't talk it took 2hrs to get the house in a state mil could visit today

It's not as bad as it should have been given the MOUNTAINS of fluff.

It looks a bit bald in places of you hold it up to the light, but still functions as a throw.

I wouldn't mind, but I'm giving it away. I just didn't want the recipient to think I was grubby or stinky so decided to wash it for them.

Bloody Freecycle.

See that's your problem right there, you were being too nice and therefore the powers of the universe decided to teach you a lesson you'll know for next time :)
