Here are some tips that I have for simple clean ups…If you have any you would like to share, please let us know them.
- I use to buy lemon sented garbage disposal packets to get rid of the bad smell left over from the food that is thrown down, but I found out that using some baking soda and citrus peel makes the bad odor go away and cleans the food out of the grinder.
- To clean the outside door I use spray on white vinegar and wipe off with a clean cloth it leaves a bright shine.
- My microwave is so dirty each week, I put four tablespoons of lemon juice in one cup water and let turn on the microwavel for five minutes. The steam and lemon will deordorize and it makes it easy to wipe anything that was splattered clean.
- I Sprinkle baking soda at the bottom of my trash bag to prevent odors. It will also help absorb any spills.
- This is my favorite, a friend told me about this one, I never heard of this one before, to dust your television, use a dryer sheet. The static guard in the sheet will keep dust from re-settling.
- I love making cookies with my kids. If cookie dough sticks to the counter,try adding some sugar to the stuck dough and rub gently. The dough and sugar will come right up. My oldest daughter loves this task.
- If a glass item breaks and tiny pieces are lying all over the floor, it’s safest to pick them up with a handful of wet cotton. With 4 kids we break a lot of dishes…This is more effective than just sweeping up the mess.
