    I throw a sheet on the bed or couch etc when I’m cleaning ceiling fans to catch any dust that may fall. The pillow case trick does work!

  • @AcornHillHomestead
    @AcornHillHomestead Před měsícem +14

    Green Machines are the bomb. Also great for cars. Dust the fan when changing sheets and toss in washer. If done regularly theres not enough dust to worry about getting on the bed sheets. The pillow trick is too much hassle.

      Having a shower wand, makes cleaning many things much easier. A little bit of pressure from the shower water (massage setting) , works so much better vs. Scrubbing and wiping, or the lower pressure at a sink.

    All beautiful ideas. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity with us❤ question: I'm painting my kitchen cabinets and having a hard time choosing between Behr whisper white and polar bear. My walls are already painted in Ultra Pure white - would Whisper white look good? I wanted a little warmer white. I already read your blog on the Behr whites! And still having a hard time deciding I would so appreciate your suggestions! Thank you!!❤❤❤

    • @thediymommy
      @thediymommy  Před měsícem +3

      I'd personally do something even a bit warmer like Behr Swiss Coffee, but it really depends on your lighting and personal taste. Paint a swatch in a large piece of paper and tack it to your walls to get the best idea of how it'll look!

      ... although I am just a Rsndom Commenter ... I suggest using a Cabinet Paint made expressly for that Application.. ; I know Behr makes a Product just for this purpose, and I'm sureyou'ree aware of this .....and although Swiss Coffee is a " warmer Colour " .. I think it actually looks better on walls, than Cabinets, but that's a personal choice. .There are quite a few options of " Warmer Whites " if you're looking for that hue to paint your Cabinets. She is correct in painting a large swatch .. I recommend " living with that for at least a Week " ... and see how you like it, since the colour will change due to lighting and different times of Day.

      @@JandKG ...My pleasure. 🙂😊... I hesitated a moment, before Commenting, ... But I thought I want her to be aware of the Undertones.And you really don't want something that's going to pull yellow or brown or orange , something like that, if thats not what youd prefer. .. the Undertone will give either ' warmer " or " cooler " tones. The Hue value is the " origin " of a Colour , and from there, it is " Tint, Tone ,and Shade ".. so I hope this helps you in choosing a Colour to try out.
      I always recommend ( and did ) at least 3 different Colours to do a Swatch on the same wall, to best determine what can actually work...and what the Client preferred. ..if none worked,.. pick other Tints/ Tones and go from there. That old saying " Its just paint" is true and it often takes a few times to find what works for the Space. the desired Look and what Compliments the Surrounding areas as well.
      Also.. depending on where you are located.. factors such as humidity, etc are considerations for when you paint, as far as dry time/ curing time ,🙂😊 Happy Painting !

    Pull your dryer out and detach the back (not sure how to do that on the newer driers) there will be so much more lint throughout the entire dryer that you cannot get to anyway else. It is frightening.
