Living Room Refresh

- Pillowcase fan trick – Slip a pillowcase over each blade to catch dust as you wipe.
- Don’t forget under furniture – Hidden spots are dust magnets!
Kitchen Clean-Up
- Go natural – Stock bicarbonate soda, vinegar, and lemons for powerful, chemical-free cleaning.
- Polish stainless steel – A lemon slice cuts grease and leaves a fresh scent.
