When you find out you have bed bugs and you're trying to get rid of them, you have to be thorough. This includes washing all your clothes, bedding and towels. However, many items need dry cleaning and we have large closets and may not be able to dry clean everything. Luckily there is a simple inexpensive way to treat your clothes without damaging them. First, round up your clothes in an air tight container or in tightly closed garbage bags. The point is to keep any bugs that may be present in one location. You can now store the clothes while you get the next part set up. This involves a freezer. Bed bugs die when they are exposed to extreme temperatures. Set an empty freezer to 0 F or -15 C. If you set the temperature colder you should do so. Place a few bags in the freezer and leave them for a minimum of 4 days. Set reminders for this so you don't forget to put the next few bags in. Once the required time is up, remove the bags and allow the items to thaw. Put away the clothes and steam and iron the items that need it. This process can be applied for shoes and some smaller items. It will help you save on dry cleaning and is eco-friendly without the use of harsh chemicals. Another part of pest control is proper cleaning. Vivid Cleaning offers professional cleaning services to prevent allergies from dust mites and allergens such as pollen. We service areas in Toronto, Vaughan, and the GTA. Make your life easier today by contacting us.

Unique decorative basket handcrafted entirely from ecological wicker - paper vine. Perfect as a standalone decor it will beautifully decorate console, dresser or coffee table. It will be great gift idea for eco conscious home owner, wedding or 1st (paper) wedding anniversary. Decorative irregular waves make this basket look completely different from each side (see photos) and therefore truly one of a kind piece.

All weaved pieces are carefully protected from moisture but they should not be washed with water. They are dedicated for decoration and are not intended for storing food. ● TECHNIQUE Baskets, vessels and bowls are handcrafted using traditional weaving technique and modern ecological materials – recycled paper wicker (paper vine). Strips of paper are rolled into very thin tubes and then used for weaving in exactly the same way as wicker or willow. This is time consuming but beautiful and very satisfying process that requires a lot of precision, experience and attention to detail. ● PACKAGING / SHIPPING Your order will be carefully packed in recycled / recyclable materials. I strive to use only paper but occasionally it also might be a piece of bubble wrap. I ship worldwide via Polish Post or FedEx but if you see a note ‘item does not ship to your country’ just let me know and I will make it possible for you to order. ● EXPRESS SHIPPING Due to different measurements of weaved pieces the cost of express shipping is calculated individually for each item. Contact me with the post code or destination country to get shipping rates. ● CUSTOM ORDERS If you like something from my shop but would like to have it in different colour, size or shape please get in touch. We will discuss all the details and I will do my best to create your dream piece of decoration. ● ABOUT STUDIO blureco STUDIO blureco was created twelve years ago as a result of great fascination with paper, its endless possibilities for creation and love for upcycling. During this time I used many different techniques and also developed my own methods which I am constantly improving. In my shop I offer a wide range of paper products - home décor, jewellery and 1st anniversary gifts and I hope you will find something interesting for yourself or as a gift for your loved ones.
