I did this a couple years ago and blogged about it on my Yahoo 360 page...clicking through Flickr and lo and behold! There's an entire group dedicated to it. Sorry it's not that well laid out, will improve upon the process next go 'round.
Early vacuum cleaner made and patented by A. S. Isles & Co., Birmingham, in the 1890s. 'Daisy' was a registered trademark, part of which was an image of the eponymous flower.
The machine has a wooden body on four iron wheels with spokes, attached to the cleaner are four handles and an iron drive-wheel with a wooden handle. Inside are bellows, a dust box and an inlet for its hose.
This is a carpet cleaner for a wealthy household. It took two people to operate it; one turning the wheel to produce a vacuum from the bellows and another to direct the hose nozzle.

One from the Archives, taken at summerfest. Part of my early Spring Clean of my files, and it certainly feels, and looks like Spring. It must have got close to 70F today. My roses are covered in fresh leaves, daffodils and tulips are a long way out of the ground. However, it is still officially winter, so the title is a bit inaccurate, unless anyone can make a connection to Autumn?

Spring Cleaning Favorite Finds
I shamelessly plug Mrs. Meyers Clean Day products. Natural ingredients, wonderful scents, no animal testing and they get the job done without burning your skin and eyes. I also feel better about using these around the pets. www.mrsmeyers.com
I had all my camera stuff shoved into this shelf, and we're having guests come so I had to clean it up. How's it look? :-) Don't worry they do get used. Not all with the same frequency but I like choices. Diversity is good :-)
View On Black because geek asked so nicely :-)
June 4, 2020 - Me Restringing all four of my Violin Strings at Home tonight, and turning the Violin Peg! Time for some Spring Cleaning and Spring Restringing!
~Story People
nothing much going on with me lately. it's spring break, but there's nothing to do except clean :( people are coming up from Texas and Georgia to see my dad, and my mom's going on a cleaning spree. how fun. but at least that gives me time to take pictures!
ugh, this weekend i'm doing my silver award for girl scouts (and yes, i'm still a girl scout.) thankfully, as soon as i'm done with this i can start on my gold award and be done with it!

You are probably saying "oh look, there's Mav and his DVD collection." Shows how much you know. This is not my DVD collection. This is the stack of movies that I hadn't bothered to file alphabetically into my DVD collection in the last couple months. Steph has been complaining about them being in the way, so tonight I went and filed them.
I hate when people talk about their movie collection and I go to their house and see like 20 DVDs. That's not a collection. That's failure to return your rentals. 20 DVDs means there might be a time when you're not in the mood to watch any of them. 600 DVDs means when company comes over and says "we're in the mood to watch some..." you have the covered. I used to joke about having a problem. But I was only joking. I don't think its a problem at all.
Of course, when iw as filing these away I noticed that I actually own Striking Distance. What the hell was I thinking?
You probably thought I'd talk about tax day today, huh? Well, you're right. I just did it here.
I'm trying to find it.
I'm all or nothing and different each day.
I'm trying to find the fine line that gives me time for the simple pleasures that I love and the work that needs to be done.
I can't keep saying "it's my time" because if I do that we will be swallowed up by dust.
It’s finally springtime, and you know what that means… Spring cleaning! Yeah, I know, most of us dread this, but it is a necessary evil. Thankfully, there are some main jobs to focus on. Check out my list below to see how to prepare your home best for the new season:

“We love the house on this 1949 cover by artist John Falter. This is one busy household! Hauling out trash, washing windows, cleaning rugs. And a passerby who just can’t help nosing through the trash for treasure. That’s a rather precarious position for the poor guy trying to get hold of the storm window. The artist said he would go through this routine with his father every spring and ‘invariably a sudden wind would come up at precisely the wrong moment,’ bending his father back at a perilous angle. We’re happy to report the elder Mr. Falter never toppled off the ladder.” [From The Saturday Evening Post Weekly Newsletter, May 15, 2010.]
“Spring cleaning has ancient origins. While the specific customs and practices may vary across cultures, the underlying themes of purification, preparation for new beginnings, and celebration of spring’s arrival remain central to this enduring tradition.” – National Geographic.
Why is it that when doing the mega-Spring-clean, things always have to get so much messier before they get tidier?
...but it sure shows this crochet off. And to make this clear - I did NOT crochet any of this. Thrifted :-)
During our spring break, we did a big apartment cleaning. We took everything out of the refrigerator and freezer, cleaned it inside and out, and then put everything back. I'm happiest when everything is organized!

Design and illustration works I did during my college days and kept for a decade long. Today I had made up my mind. Goodbye! I cannot afford to keep rubbish.
And no, I do not have them in soft copies :D
