Packaging for my orders.
I thought it would be useful to go through my packaging procedure. With orders for woodcare I prefer to double wrap in bubblewrap to give some protection. It shouldn't be necessary but I don't like to take chances and prefer to give my orders the best possible chance of getting to their destinations safely and undamaged. Post Office regulations also require liquids to be double bagged hence woodcare orders being double bagged.
To keep costs down (also meaning prices down) i source free packaging as far as possible. I find my local supermarket very helpful in this respect supplying me with all the packaging I need - bags. bubblewrap and cardboard. This is also helpful to the supermarkets as it cuts down on their waste, even if only slightly which means it cuts their costs of disposing of their waste. Occasionally I have used padded envelopes. These are used envelopes which are being recycled. This means that all my packing is recycled and recyclable in turn
I hope this explains why the packaging does sometimes look as if it is recycled!

How do I look after my conservatory wood furniture
Isn't it great to see the sun at last. Sitting at my computer I can look into my back garden (sadly the lawn is really in need of a good trim but I won't have time today) and enjoy the view. However, one view I am not enjoying is the sight of my furniture in the conservatory - it reminds me that the maintenance is overdue
Using my Heritage Woodcare regularly will not only clean all my wood furniture but it will also prevent it drying out and will keep it looking good and the best thing about it is that is easy to use. I really must buckle down and get on with it!
I said it is easy to use. All you need do is give your bottle a good shake, pour some into a container, soak any soft, clean clothin your polish, squeeze and wring the cloth out till it is damp dry (don't worry if your polish has become discoloured, this doesn't affect it), pour the remaining polish back in your bottle and now you are ready. All you do now is wipe. If you have marks and areas of fading you may need several applications but generally one application is ok.
Heritage Woodcare can be obtained online, visit http://www.heritagewoodcare.co.uk/ for more information and to be able to buy it.

At last! some much needed sunshine and warm weather. Are you enjoying this absolutely gorgeous spell, making the most of it and sitting / dining outside? If so, have you prepared your furniture?
Metal and plastic furnitures are easy. To get them ready is really just a matter of soap and water combined with a little elbow grease.
Wood furniture requires a little more effort but if you are canny, it can be just as easy, The first thing you need to consider is the type of wood and the condition. By this I mean if it is teak and has been allowed to weather to a silvery finish you are faced with two choices - if you like this finish, wipe with a damp cloth and leave it. If you don't kike the finish, you will need to sand it until ALL the silvery effect has been removed. Then polish with your Heritage Woodcare. If all the silvery effect has not been removed, what is left will turn black when polish is applied. Other woods can be just polished although you are better sanding any weathering.
To use your Heritage shake the bottle well, pour some into a container, soak any soft, clean cloth or duster in the polish,squeeze and wring the cloth out.until it is just damp and you are ready. (return the un-used polish to the bottle)
Heritage Woodcare is oil based – there is no need for waxing! It cleans, polishes and protects at the same time.
N.B. If the duster is not wrung enough, the furniture may be left slightly wet, in which case it should be buffed with a dry duster
Heritage Woodcare is available online, visit http://www.heritagewoodcare.co.uk/products-page/

Time to get busy with your Heritage Woodcare and Heritage Leathercare
Hi. I have been so busy recently with one thing and another. Have you? Like me are you busy spring cleaning? Or, are you taking advantage of some of the sunny breaks and off into the great outdoors? also like me, or, rather it would be, given the chance.
Anyway, back to the spring cleaning. I have been much involved in doing it recently as my wife has broken her ankle and is unable to do anything so it is all down to me. I been been busy with the Heritage Woodcare, dusting and cleaning. It has also been in evidence on my wooden parquet floors although they need doing again. Don't forget you can also use it when cleaning your car, caravan, boat, etc. Full instructions for use can be found at http://www.heritagewoodcare.co.uk/how-to-use/
I have also had my Heritage Leathercare out cleaning and polishing my two leather footstools. They look so much better after a bit of tlc. Again there are so many uses for your Heritage Leathercare - furniture, clothing, footware, car upholstery. etc. Full instructions for use can be found at http://www.heritageleathercare.co.uk/how-to-use/
Both Heritage Woodcare and Heritage Leathcare can be bought online. For Heritage Woodcare visit http://www.heritagewoodcare.co.uk/products-page/ For Heritage Leathercare, visit http://www.heritageleathercare.co.uk/buy-leathercare/
