Lint Rolling Away
What is the best way to clean a lampshade? I used to run my Swiffer duster over it, but it never came very clean that way. I tried vacuuming it but was not satisfied with the results. Last month my shade was getting too dirty to endure.
If you know me, you understand that something like this drives me crazy. If you do not know me, you will have to imagine me trying to ignore this disgrace while giving it side-long glances and trembling in horror.
Maybe the pictures fail to do it justice, but it was covered in dust. Then, as I was pulling something out of a drawer, I saw my lint roller sitting there. It was a light-bulb moment.
Here is a view of the action. Steel yourselves.
Problem solved! I love those easy-to-fix dilemmas.
Zoom in for the close-up.
May all of your cleaning be as relaxed.
Happy Homemaking!
I am a teacher, traveler, artist, writer, homemaker and a whole lot more. In January 2009, I bought the Cape of Dreams. It was the second house that I had ever owned, but it was the first that I bought by myself. I now live in the house with my husband Douglas, our dog Kahlua, and Crème de Menthe, the cat. Because, what life is complete without a little Kahlua and Cream? I love arts and crafts of all kinds, and I refinish furniture as well. We are slowly redoing our entire house. You can read about my projects on my blog www.CapeofDreams.com
Love this!
Thanks! These easy solutions make me so happy.
