Seeing is believing!

Recently, I found some helpful tips from a board on Pinterest. Some include, tying a dryer sheet to my pants while I'm outside to keep mosquitoes from biting me (it really works!), making my own weed spray from Apple Cider vinegar, salt, and dawn dish soap (One gallon of APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, 1/2 c table salt, 1 tsp Dawn. Mix and pour into a smaller spray bottle), which works better than Round-Up and is a lot cheaper! BUT, I have to say that tonight I was REALLY blown away at what a little lemon slice can do! I'm not sure if anyone else would be excited about this, but since I like a clean house, I love finding any tips & advice that can help it stay that way...and when they actually work, I'm ecstatic!

I have really stubborn water spots in my shower and my kitchen sink faucet. I read that you just need to rub a lemon and VOILA! It'll go away like magic. Out of curiosity, I took a piece of my leftover lemon that I used from dinner and rubbed it all over my kitchen sink. I'll just post the pictures and they'll do the talking! (By the way, I am very embarrassed to show the 'before' picture, but I want to show how 'stubborn' those water spots were!)

This is the before. I promise that I have tried to get rid of the spots! I should have taken the flash off so you could see how bad it really was! 

After rubbing it with a little slice of lemon! That's it! It's like a brand new faucet! 

The little miracle lemon! 

If anybody knew this before I knew this, then shame on you for not telling me the secret sooner! =) Not only is it a lot cheaper than buying something from the store, it makes your kitchen smell nice and zesty! 

Love you all! Stay fresh and clean! <3 

XOXO,
Nancy
