    Thanks so much for your suggestions, ladies! I cleaned the walls with the Vanilla spray that smiles4u suggested (which smells AMAZING!) and got the tough spots (pencil/crayon marks etc) with a bit of cream cleanser. So far I've only done the hallway and lounge room but the entire house smells just gorgeous - and who knew the walls were so white under all that dust?

    Fleur, the lemon oil idea on light fittings etc sounds delish, too - will definitely have a go at that! I might try and slip one of the new Glade vanilla candles into the grocery shop tomorrow heheh I looooove vanilla smells!

    Thanks girls, I really appreciate the suggestions

    Add water-miscible lavendar to your shopping list too, it's available in Woolies near the medicines usually (sometimes the cleaning products).

    Put a little (not even a half capful) in a water sprayer full of water.
    When you make up their bed, give a little spray over the sheets, and each night give a spray over the bed. Also it's great as a rinse (a drop or 2) in the washing machine.

    I know it's probably totally impractical but I like to use those Sicky Fingers baby wipes to dust! It makes my place smell so yummy! It just doesn't last long enough though

    ^ Haha I used baby wipes to dust our picture frames! I have never dusted anything before in my LIFE! Had to give everything a wipe over with a paper towel when I was done (J&J tend to be pretty greasy) but they're all sparkly now Wow, my house actually looks presentable for a change

    Not sure if you have carpets or floor board but if you have carpets there is a carpet deodoriser spray in vanilla that is gorgeous. I buy it from woolworths and it costs around $7 but goes a long long way.
