I Hate Cleaning Vertical Blinds |
|
My kitchen vertical blinds are a mess, and there's a city inspection tomorrow, so I'm up washing them off (along with the rest of my place). I'm at the point where I'm considering hiding under the bed or playing dead as a viable option.
AAAARGH!

1. I just did this last week! And bitched about it here too!!! |
|
I soak them in oxyclean...and wipe them dry and voila. The worst part is the putting them back up. :hi:

3. I used to use that until I found oxyclean. It honestly cleans them in 3 |
|
seconds. And MrG just quit being a 2 pack a day smoker. It halved the job for me. :hi:

4. I Wish I Knew That An Hour Ago! I LOVE OxyClean! |
|
I know that's odd, coming from the World's Worst Housekeeper™*, but I use that stuff in my laundry every time. If I ever clean them again - I may just BUY new ones instead! - I'll try to remember that!
*How bad? Shovel and flamethrower bad. I wish I could blame it on my bad arm/crappy health, but I was a lousy housekeeper when I healthy. Now I'm way worse.

take it anymore. I am always looking for the easy way out. I got sick of cleaning the kitchen ceiling fan so....I got rid of it! That's the kind of housekeeper I am. ;) High five! :hi:

8. oxy removed a red wine stain from my fam room carpet. Just |

magically disappeared before my eyes! LOVE the stuff! It's also great on grout if you have tile floors--it actually keeps bleaching them so the day after you use it, the floor is even cleaner.
