subject: Funny Home Remedies That Your Granny Knows [print this page] Our homes are so full of commercial cleaning products that we rarely even think of alternatives to using chemicals. Whatever the occasion should a wine stain occur, if you have run out of stain remover, instead of simply rubbing salt on the spot, you are more likely to go crazy and panic.
Here are some funny home remedies that even your granny knows,suggested by Cleaning Uxbridge. They work just as well as any commercial product, full of chemicals and other harmful elements:
1. Quick Fixes:
1.1 If you want to clean the dust from the leaves of your favourite plants, you should wipe them with a soft cloth, dipped in beer. The beer will make their leaves shine while gently removing the dust. For the weeks to come your plants will be the envy of your family, neighbours and friends.
1.2 If your shower curtain often sticks, and you can't think of anything that will help short of replacing the whole thing, you should try rubbing some of your hair conditioner on the rod. It will work miracles.
1.3 Instead of a regular pincushion, try using a big candle. The wax from the candle will help the needles and pins slide easily through the fabric.
2. Cleaning Tips:
2.1 Have you faced those naughty fingerprints left from small curious hands on your brand-new non-washable wallpaper? Before going into crisis-mode, think about what your granny would have done. Simply wipe the wallpaper with a slice of bread, and it will absorb the stains reminds Cleaning Victoria.
2.2 Use ketchup to remove tarnish from brass cookware. Simply dip a cotton swab in the ketchup, rub for a couple of minutes, and you will have the items shining, as if they were brand new.
2.3 To defog the bathroom mirror, you can use shaving cream. Afterwards, wipe the remains of the shaving cream with a soft, clean cloth and you are all set.
2.4 Instead of spending hours vacuum cleaning the sofa to get rid of all the animal hair, you could just run a rubber glove over it. The hair will stick to it and come right off.
