I am sure that I am not the only one that’s wanting to make her space cleaner, prettier and well kept, especially right now when all we see are these 4 walls 24/7! I am working on the cleaning thing. Juggling the homeschooling, a growing business, cooking all the meals (no takeout here!) I am open to trying new methods of staying on top of things, while trying to not lose my mind!
I actually found this tip on one of my favorite You Tubers Instagram account, Laura Vitale. I just adore her and she shares so many amazing cooking recipes! She (unlike me) loves cleaning and such, so as I embrace this more, I figured why the heck not?! Watch me turn into an OCD cleaning freak after quarantine!
You will need just a few items to clean your micro-fiber (suede) fabric:
Dish Soap (tiny bit!)
Scrub brush
Fabric softener (Again, tiny bit but this time for the scent!)
Step 1:
Fill a bowl of water with a little dish soap, dip the scrub brush and go at it!
Step 2:
Fill a second bowl with water and a little bit of fabric softener. Then, take a cloth and make those gorgeous swipes and lines! *see bottom photo
I just love the scent of this kind. (I’m sure you could do essential oils too, whatever floats your boat.)
I’ve tried keeping towels on the chairs, but I gave up on one in particular. Yes, more spills and drips may have happened on someone’s chair in particular and his chair was a TAD worse than most. (Do I love showing you this photo? NOPE. But if I can help another desperate mama who feels like everything is out of her control right now, then my ego can take a hike. Real life people–sticky little fingers, food, drinks, dogs–oh my!)
After:
Voila!
As you can see, the far left chair still needs another rub down (no names mentioned, but the one with the littlest hands seems to be the messiest!) I set them outside in the sun to get that extra Vitamin D and dry a tad faster.
Verdict? Totally impressed.
