      The silicone mat with the texture is also good to clean your makeup brushes. Add some soap to a dish with water and place mat in it. Rub makeup brushes against the texture to clean tough to get out makeup. I’m an artist and use this method to clean my paint brushes. Another off topic of cleaning them is… a cleaned out candle jar that has a lid and a tuna can is perfect to clean brushes! I turn the tuna can upside down and punch holes in it with an ice pick or screwdriver and a hammer. Make as many holes as you can. Place can upside down in the candle jar. Fill jar to just above the can with odorless mineral spirits for oil paints and one with water for acrylics. Scrub your brush against the can holes. Then rinse accordingly. I lay my brushes flat. When you’re done, put lid on to preserve your spirits. The oil paint will sink to the bottom. You can pour the clearer spirits into another jar to reuse. Pour the paint in the bottom into a receptacle suitable for throwing away. It saves money on mineral spirits. I generally use the glass candle jars from Bath and Body Works. But any with a lid all do as long as it has a rubber or silicone gasket in the lid. Otherwise it will evaporate. The same can be applied to makeup brushes with water and soap.

    My husband was going to buy an expensive brush to wash the spokes on his bicycle, told me about it before he did it so I beat him to the punch and suggested we go to dollar tree to see what they might have! I immediately went to the toilet brush section and suggested he try one! He bought two and now checks at Dollar Tree before making any purchases like that now!

    My favorite hack for the dollar tree toilet brushes is use on a drill as a drill brush. Cut it saw the handle off where the skinniest area is on the toilet brush. Put in your drill and tighten. You now have a perfect electric scrubber to scrub showers, car rims, the possibilities are endless!! Works much better than other "cleaning electric brushes", because if you put any pressure on them, it will stop the brush. Drill keeps turning.

      I know this sounds weird, but I use a new, clean toilet brush for a back scratcher. I like the ones that look more like a loop. You just need to make sure the bristles are on the softer side and not really stiff. My grandkids love to lay down and let me softly scratch their backs for hours!

    All I know is I tried something you said a while back and thought it was crazy until I tried it. You used Vaseline on your stainless steel oven top and it was so shiny and beautiful! So I have stainless steal dishwasher and matching stove that are I bet 20 years old and are almost impossible to clean without streaks and just doesn’t shine like they use to. I’ve tried everything! The magic eraser came the closest in cleaning and shining without streaks but it took lots of elbow grease. Long story short I reluctantly tried the Vaseline and it’s like a miracle! Put it lightly on and then buff it completely off and it’s like having brand new appliances. And NO it doesn’t leave any kind of residue or your fingerprints when touching them. They are beautiful! Who would have ever thought? Try it- YOU WONT DISAPPOINTED! Thank you SO much

    For the trash can trick you can add a few layers of newspaper before add your trash bag in. When you remove the trash if the bag is leaking out just remove the layers of newspaper that get wet out and replace as needed.

      You can also add a favorite bar soap on the bottom of the trash can underneath those layers of new paper as well. Or you can put about a tablespoon full of laundry beads into the mesh bag and tie the string to secure and place it under the new paper layers too.

    I needed a new toilet bowl brush so I bought one. Before I could get it to the bathroom, the cat found it. She doesn't like to have her fur brushed, but, after she already "claimed" it, I started brushing her with it. It's full of fur! Had to go back to the dollar store and buy another toilet bowl brush!

    @tamaradavis3693 Před 10 měsíci +273

    I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but for the make up brush/art brush segment...you should never place freshly cleaned brushes with the brush end up. The moisture from cleaning soaks into the ferrule and loosens the attachment; leading to shorter brush life. Store them upside down or on their side until dry.

    Just add water to any cleaning product that has thickened or dried up. When anything with liquid is exposed to the air it will always dry up a little, so needs a little hydration. This ensures you use the entire product to the end.

    One of the best pretreating things is a bar of Fels Naptha laundry soap and some all purpose cleaner made of 1 cup water, 1 cup 70% or higher isopropyl alcohol, and a few drops of Dawn soap. Saturate the stain with your APC. Then rub the bar soap over the stain until it has plenty of detergent. You can throw into the wash right away or rinse the stain out and put into the laundry hamper. I’ve frequently done the full treatment on bad stains but didn’t rinse it out. Just tossed it into the laundry hamper. I’ve also used the bar to wash makeup brushes. It’s the cleanest they’ve been.

    For your counter top : future floor wax or car wax. Use it also in our bathrooms. Never put it on the floor in showers, only because it can be slippery but on the walls, water beads up, no water build up or hard water deposit. Oh, the shine is beautiful😊

And it’s shining and I’m thrilled work smarter not harder your bones muscles and joints will thank you!! And thank you for all the great ideas!!

    Andrea Jean, you and your viewers always have great cleaning tips. I've also used a silicone mat to clean makeup brushes but please be careful not to "drown" them in your cleaning solution or it will disintegrate the glue holding the bristles and handles together. Just dip and swirl on the mat. Also, drying them standing on end causes water to run into the handle attachments, again, causing damage. Give them a GENTLE squeeze with a towel and then dry them on a clean, dry one with the bristles pointing on a downward angle if posdible (I hang the bristle part over the sink) or at least flat, and even inexpensive makeup brushes will last a long time. Thanks for all your tips. XO ❤️

  • @kimtonearts
    @kimtonearts Před 6 měsíci +7

    Love the paper bag keeper rack idea. I choose paper over plastic every chance I get bc its naturally healthier (comes from trees not chemicals) its more eco friendly, very reusable & biodegradable. It breaks down much faster in landfills and less likely to strangle or smother marine & wildlife. It's good for up and down recycling, crafts, paper mache, wrapping, packing, protecting in airtight storage. Shred or use flat in bird or other small critter cages (avoid bleached white bags in animal cages.) Fold down and tightly compact many paper bags in to a same sz bag to make homemade logs for wood burning fireplace & firepits. It burns faster but catches easier too, one can make small tightly twisted paper as homemade kindling sticks too. A word of caution: Dont harbor bags unchecked for years, rather rotate and use older bags to discourage bugs from setting up house. When cleaning out an elderly relative's house, I found roaches & other creepy crawlers like to use undisturbed, older bags as nesting places, so, def rotate & get good use out of them as not to be overly hospitable to bugs. Even bugs won't set up house in unaired plastics, they instinctively know breathing or consuming plastics is unhealthy. Help keep paper as an option if you have ways to re-use paper over plastics too. A healthy balance of reusable will serve us and future generations well. 🙂 🕊️

But I will have a lasting memory of the magnets combined with the basket and or mesh bag in the laundry room for my sheers and toothbrush and for a shelter for unwed socks. You are a true Clever Creator and you make me smile and give me lots and lots of chuckles. When I first started following you, I didn’t realize that you have such a playful personality.

    I bought that pink paste before seeing this video to do the exact same thing, clean my patio chairs. I did find that it works, but you have to scrub it on, and use a lot of it, then leave it for a couple of minutes. My chair cushions were much cleaner after rinsing. Same for when I used it on my shoes. I think your power wash does a much better job in less time, so yeah, skip the pink stuff.
