How to Safely Clean Sticky Grime on Furniture

When life gets messy, you need Best Cleaner Ever!  Shelly with you today sharing my latest "AH-HA" cleaning moment with Best Cleaner Ever.

We recently had our millennial grandson living with us.  After he moved out, I had to do a little cleaning.

This night stand was an icky, sticky MYSTERY MESS.  The room is furnished with inexpensive discount store furniture, so I have to be careful what kind of cleaner I use on it.

After trying multiple different "gentle" cleaners and scrub sponges, I finally had my "AH HA" moment and grabbed my Best Cleaner Ever from the craft room.

I sprayed cleaner directly on mess, let set JUST a minute, and literally WIPED the mess off with my fingertips!  FANTASTIC!

After I finished getting the muck off, I wiped it down with my Perfect Cleaning Cloth (run under cold water and well wrung) and wiped with a dry Perfect Cleaning Cloth (you know you can't just have one Perfect Cleaning Cloth - they are too handy!)

Best Cleaner Ever is:

• SAFE for hands, tools, brushes, clear & rubber stamps, fabrics, & more
• Contains 99.9% active ingredients. No water, alcohol, or abrasives
• Non-Toxic
• Non-Hazardous
• Biodegradable
• Has NO Harmful Fumes

I am always amazed at how well and how easy this cleaner works!  Now, I just need to remember to keep an extra bottle with my regular cleaning supplies!

Thanks for stopping by the blog today - have a creative week!

I've got a post on the ScraPerfect Blog demonstrating the EASIEST, FASTEST way to add foil accents to your craft projects with absolutely beautiful results using Designer Transfer Foils from ScraPerfect.

Designer Transfer Foils from ScraPerfect – NO TOOLS NEEDED!

A little background... I am creating a scrapbook cookbook of my "go to" recipes.  This recipe comes from the plaid, Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook - my very first cookbook - a Christmas gift from my mother when I was still a teen (who else owns this cookbook? give me shout out in the comments!)

Using Designer Transfer Foils from ScraPerfect is just SO EASY!! And a foil accent just gives such a great POP of WOW on your layout!

• Apply Best Glue Ever to area to be foiled - a thin layer is all it takes
• Let BGE "set" until it changes from white to clear
• Place Designer Transfer Foil over area to be foiled - SHINY SIDE UP!
• Use your finger to rub foil
• Pull foil paper away quickly
• ENJOY your gorgeous results!
