Argh!, it's that time of year again. Purge purge, clean clean clean. I like getting rid of the old to make room for the new but sometimes it's hard to say goodbye to that favorite boyfriend...cardigan. As I forged ahead this past weekend, I started knocking things off the list, sense of accomplishment met.
I still have a ways to go and if I ever want to see the back of my closet, I'll need to part ways with some loved ones. Aside from that there is the cleaning aspect which might be worse than the funeral that is my closet, at least there is hope for new life there. Cleaning is endless and in no time will be dusted over like a hot desert.
I'm a HUGE fan of Pinterest, yes I'm a pinner and I tell you there are so many brilliant ideas to be discovered. While warming up for the big clean, I did some stretches and browsed a bit on Pinterest and found the most simple and fantabulous idea thanks to a fellow pinner.
Do you have a ceiling fan, anywhere in your house? Yes, ok ... do you have an old pillow case?
Do you have a ceiling fan, anywhere in your house? Yes, ok ... do you have an old pillow case?
Check!
This is the easiest way to clean your ceiling fan without making a bigger mess.
See my fan ...
A few weeks ago I blogged about a small house fire at my house. Well, as a result we had the entire house cleaned by a fire restoration company. They cleaned every nook and cranny, including this fan. That was just 3 weeks ago, if you look close enough you can see that there is fur growing along the blades.
So, for this simple quick cleaning. Take that old pillow case you have and slide the pillow over each blade, as shown below.
Carefully dust each blade pulling from back to front, ensuring each part of the blade is dusted. At each dusting the dust will be collected inside the old pillow case, instead of falling on the floor, a bed, coffee table or sofa.
Goodbye my furry little friends :)
and voila!
