How to Make Homemade Dishwasher Detergent Tabs

You would not believe the amount of testing and photographs I took in my quest find a homemade dishwasher detergent that was any good. I was very happy with the final winner, though! The best part?

Stop Wasting Time and Money; Take Control of Your Wardrobe

Stop Wasting Time and Money; Take Control of Your Wardrobe

I read the other day that women spend an average of a year deciding what to wear. Just as adults- that doesn’t count children or the elderly. My first thought?

How to Remove Impossible Bathtub Stains and Mold…without Scrubbing

How to Remove Impossible Bathtub Stains and Mold…without Scrubbing

In our household we have two bathtub problems: mold in the one and impossible-to-remove shampoo residue in the other.

In addition, this careful scrubbing to... Read More

How to a Clean a Front Load Washer

How to a Clean a Front Load Washer

First of all, I PURPOSELY let my washer get that nasty just so I could test cleaning methods.I do NOT normally let my washer get that nasty. That disclaimer aside, it’s actually fairly easy to clean out a dirty/moldy front-load washer despite how stubborn that mold can be. On my first attempt,  I just used regular cleaner.

How to Clean Off Long-Term, Permanent Microwave Stains

At first this was an amusing, slightly challenging attempt to find a solution for those long-term, permanent microwave stains. Then it turned into a vendetta. Each new method had me approaching the microwave with narrowed eyes and determination to win.
