Vinegar....one small miracle cleaner

Yikes! Didn't realize it had been over a month since I last blogged! Anyway, back to business. Another great article from All You, 45 Uses for Vinegar.  This may be a 2 or 3 parter, as there are a bunch of good ideas, but feel free to look at the whole article at your leisure.  These suggestion all use distilled white vinegar.


1.  Clothes Saver.  Rubbing a bit of vinegar on a light scorch mark or antiperspirant stain then wiping with a clean cloth can save your garment.  It was not mentioned if this could be done with all fabrics but worth a try.

2.  Remove Old Paint from Brushes.  Put brushes in a pot with vinegar.  Let it soak for an hour then put the pot and brushes on the stove and set to simmer.  Then drain, rinse and clean.

3.  Stops Static.  Another benefit for using vinegar in my wash!   Put a 1/2 cup in your wash.  The acid in the vinegar prevents static cling.

4.  Restore Purses and Shoes.  By wiping vinegar on shoes or purses to restore shine and lessen the appearance of scuffs.

5.  Top Itching.  Wipe vinegar on a mosquito bite to alleviate the itching.  It also disinfects the area to help it heal faster.

I will be posting more uses for vinegar in the next couple of days.  Or, if you don't want to wait go to 45 Uses for Vinegar.  See you soon!
