Thank you so much! I have 10 windows in my living room alone. I had finished 3 windows when I decided to Google "cleaning venetian blinds without taking them down." I have no bathtub (just had a modern bathroom installed), and this method saved my life. Finished the other 7 windows in record time. They are sparkling clean.
This looks completely doable, least mess, least work. Thanks for the ideas
Gurl!!! I think I ❤ you. I watched your video this morning and just did 1 set of blinds. Hot digety dog! It worked amazingly. Three more windows to go. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
That is awesome!
Thanks, had protein based smoke throughout the house. I was dreading the blinds. I added simple green and cleaning vinegar to the water. It worked perfectly with little effort. Bless you.
I have tried the Swiffer duster too and you are right, it doesn't get them clean. I am going to try this tip; thank you!
The method that works best for my cleaning of blinds is using Clorox wipes. The wipes do a superb job of cleaning and I can get in between the strings that support the blinds structure as well as do both sides at once. I just grip the wipes by my hands. Everything smells very clean and sterile. Cleaning goes very quickly.
I use Clorox wipes as well. Works great!
Do you need to dry the blinds after cleaning?
@@juliecavallaro6407 No, the blinds dry as you go. It uses quite a few wipes but works extremely well.
That seems it would just push the dirt and dust around
And sounds like a lot of waste like you would need a lot of wipes for all of this?
Nice! I would go over with a second pair that’s dry so that the dust doesn’t stick after!
Girl!!!😮🎉 u have saved my life..I’m trying this today! Thank u!!!
❤️❤️❤️
That is such a great idea. My blinds have been neglected for this very reason, I have a lot of them and my house is dusty. The long haired cat/roommate helps make new areas to clean. Thank you for the wonderful tip.
I just spent a long time doing just what you talked about. After watching this video I got out my metal tongs washcloths and dawn and this method is so much easier and cleaner
I am so glad l watched this. I have to do my blinds this week!
googled 'cleaning blinds' and you were the first to pop up! Thank you, as I had visions of removing them and packing them to the bathtub!....(not anymore!)... ;)
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Awesome! this is what I was looking for without removing blinds lol Thank you for sharing!
Glad I could help!
That method is so innovative....thank you as you saved me a lot of time. I am a housekeeper always looking for ways to lessen the load for sure.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Andrea! Thank you so much for your knowledge.
I see this as the perfect chore for the kids to help with. Hahahaha definitely doesn’t replace taking down the blinds but can help with the in between maintenance- thanks Andrea!!
I like the way you think. haha
@@TheRexxrexx 💕
Great tip. Thanks!
This is so smart and doable!!! YES THANK YOU
Fantastic trick
Thanks! I was looking for an easier way.
What about cleaning the string?
Thank you for your wonderful tip, I'm going to try this out tomorrow. X
Have fun!
What a great idea. Will be doing this today!😊
Or you can have seven Irish offspring to clean the glass ventian window slats by hand with newspaper dunked in vinegar water throughout a large house like my mom had. Lol 1970s
Just use an old sock or an oven mit, then throw it in the laundry. No need for the tongs.
just in time! - we're doing the blinds tomorrow thanks :)
Have fun!
Thank you this is good, and cheap to do. No way would I soak them in a tub ,that’s far too much work. 😩
Hi I am from South Africa great tips I am very concerned about how we do clean blinds thank you now I will definitely clean it
Yeah i got the exact tongs here in the UK gonna tackle them in this method x
Excellent idea.
I was thinking to clean blinds in any ideal way like this. Thank you for sharing. 🇨🇦
You are so welcome!
Best hack ever
This is ok for a once a week dusting but to really clean them, soak them in the tub with hot water & a little Dawn dish liquid, wipe ‘em with a sponge then rinse off with the shower wand. To dry hang ‘em over a patio chair outside in the sun. You can do several at a time🤷🏻♀️
Who does their blinds once a week 😂 get real.
@@bettymarketello4301 I totally agree, I don’t do mine weekly, not even monthly🤣
Ummm! I'm LOVING this idea! And, once a week? 🤦🤦🤦 I'm like maybe 3 times a year and have never taken them down to soak them. I secretly wish to be an OCD cleaner, but have come to realize I'm happy with messy but clean. Life happens.
@@grammym1643 lol, oh I do not do this weekly nor monthly, I’m usually a once a year😂. Unless it’s the blinds over my kitchen windows, they get dirty alot easier so I’ll do them about twice a year.
We are supposed to clean our blinds? I think I'm a bit behind.
I need to try this trick , thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
Thank goodness you and my roommate agree about the duster. She can’t stand them and feels that they only spread dirt!!!
I agree the swiffers are worthless! Using thongs Is brilliant! I think I'm going to take mine into the bathtub though and soak them like you said. With the Santa Ana winds in California, everything just feels dirty and grimy. And then it will be nice for the holidays!
I respect the cleaning enthusiasm
Lol love it ❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂
Those new "dusters" looks like cut up dryer sheets on a stick. I find them useless. I still find the "feather dusters" sprayed with pledge of better use for those in between dusting for blinds. However, I love the tongs method for cleaning blinds this is the most practical I've seen in my search. This is the video I was looking for, thank you, my search is over.
Thanks Andrea!
I just adore you
Yes, yes, yes! You are a genius.
Tried this today, thank you for the hack, love your channel!
Yay! Thank you!
Paint brush works fast for me.
That’s ingenious thanks, from the UK
Glad it was helpful!
This can work just for a clean blind or if you clean once a week or very two weeks,but if you are a cleaner and you must to clean a dirty blind you need a different method or a different approach…. My personal opinion of course
Many compliments for the video
Simon
Wouldn't the towel in your hand be easier.....🤨
nice video and fun narration! thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
This works great for plastic blinds, but I have metal ones. Can I use tis on them??
Thank you so much im gonna try this because i have to be at my friends in THREE HOURS
Pretty Cool Andrea, like that tip!!! Joan Bates ❤ ❤ ❤
Ty!
Great idea
Thank you! Cheers!
Does it work for wooden blinds as well?
Happy Mother's Day
So how about cleaning the plastic thin blinds without making a mess??? The house I just moved into has these and they are horrible. They seem a bit frail 😢
How do you clean ceilings that have dust collected around a ceiling fan? The ceiling has the spackle texture and are 10-12 feet tall.
I vacuum, then eventually repaint...which is a pain.
Thanks
That was my first thought and I’ll share with my son.
I suggested using a broom and it worked really well. High ceilings and my son said the broom was easier than the vacuum.
That’s a great idea….🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
great stuff thanks
I take mine down , put them in outside shower where I have hooks to hold them and then spray with greased lightening , rinse and let hang until dry , they are spotless.
Great idea thanks
Great blind cleaning hack 👌👌
Thank you! Cheers!
That Is A Great Idea!!
Thank you for this great Video
My pleasure!
Just done mine, vaccum then magic eraser, brilliant. They were very dirty
So cool
Hi! Where did you get the tool you are using in your video?
I'm using a pair of kitchen tongs. These are the ones I currently have and love them if you're looking to upgrade: urlgeni.us/amzn/bWAaz
Here is the link for the Swiffer duster I was using: urlgeni.us/amzn/sCqKD
Thnkuful this was clevr and hlpful😊
❤️❤️❤️
I was told NOT TO USE WATER ~~ I have expensive wood blinds and won’t risk it. That being said, I will try your method (excellent idea) using some kind of wood spray cleaner/conditioner instead of water. Thanks! 😊
I hate blinds, why do all landlords use them😢
❤️❤️❤️
Great idea!!
Thank you! 😊
And for WOOD ones??
I would rather clean ten toilets than a set of blinds.
My apartment has two sets of double window blinds, and three sets of single window blinds. I’ll try your method.
Do you have any suggestions for cleaning honeycomb blinds? They are a thin cloth material and a light color. The blind cleaning services in my area won’t clean honeycomb blinds.
Car Wash
Thank u very much 🥰🥰🥰
You’re welcome 😊
5.13.22 Question: How would one clean those honey comb window blinds/curtins?
I bought one of those blind cleaning tools. I can't really explain it but you kind of put the blinds in between them them and squeeze. I'm planning on using it with the hot water and Dawn. It wasn't expensive..... we'll see how it goes.
Did you try it? I’m a professional cleaner and curious! Tia!
Shop vac with brush atchment
Believe me blinds is great but cleaning is a nightmare I'm thinking of rather returning to curtains much easier to clean just take it down pop in the washer and dryer and you done
Cleaning blind strips one at a time is not for me but thanks for the tip will give it a go
Reminds me of the Karate kid....wipe on wipe off....
My arms would be noodles cleaning my blinds this way....
It's much easier to take them down and put them in the tub.. I then lay out beach towels and then wipe them down and hang them back up.
I need to clean a really really dirty refrigerator and more importantly bathroom. I try to get small homes and make money off of them. I tried to do the cleaning myself but in this case the bathroom is a disaster zone. Any advice? The regular type cleaning stuff just isn't doing the job on the walls and the shower floor. I don't want to discolor the walls because there's really nothing wrong with them. I think there were some squatters living there for a while before I got it and they were just using it whatever way. Help please. I'm going to subscribe anyway but if anybody can help me with this please let me know cuz I'm kind of new to the whole buying homes and trying to make money and fixing things myself
Dude. If only I'd seen this years ago...
I need to find a way to clean ceiling fans that's easier than climbing on a step ladder.
As I suspected no easy way.
Lol 😂
Bathtub method is faster! Hell you'd likely be 10 years!
Yea but the slats go all caddy wompus and the string is all out of order, inless im doing this all wrong lol
@@cherylwatkins1799 yeah,that's true! Good point!
That wouldn't work on cheap vinyl blinds. They break very easily.
Obviously brenda
My friend
Interesting, BUT, much easier to remove the blind take it outside and wash it , let dry then put back up
Good tip! But haha, your blinds don't make a good example because you are a clean freak and they weren't that dirty to begin with!!
Nahhh that's too much work, I rather keep hosing them with my shower, they clean better
@MARIA ORTIZ WHAT DO YOU MEAN? HOW?🤷🏽👂🏾👀
I clean my blinds weekly or daily if something gets on them. I love hosing down my blinds but not weekly. I do this but instead of tongs I use my hand
@@showponyklb please come to my house!! 😆😆
What i meant was I take out all my blinds and power wash them in my shower 🚿, I spray AWSOME SPRAY AND YALL SHOULD SEE THE RESULTS!!! AMAZING
@@MARIAOrtiz-rd8on OH OK ... THANK YOU
2:33 WHERE IS THE ALBUM? WE WANT THE ALBUM! 🎶🗣
best easiest way to clean them ...... fill bathtub with bleach water , dunk and air dry ....
