Pop-Up Sponges

Pop-Up Sponges - a very interesting concept! Totally perfect for camping, boating or anywhere else you need to conserve space.

They simply pop up once wet - and are very absorbent. Being cellulose, they are also good to polish silver and wax the car.

Cuisipro Flexible Cleaning Brush

Today I bought a new toy for my kitchen. If you can call a cleaning product a toy. Well, I am, so it is.
