Great ideas!!!! The clapping made me laugh! I feel there should be clapping every time I finish cleaning.

You are brilliant! The sticky label I use rolled up newspaper to start fires in my wood stove. One tip I have is when I change out my kitchen towel I do a quick dust of the rooms on my way to the clothes chute. Mom taught me that😊 thank you for all the great ideas!

I like your tip about cleaning out the overflow in the sink. Love your videos, Wendy💙

Your mother (or whoever talked you and your siblings into it) was simply brilliant for talking you guys into playing 'cleaning fairy'! We always save socks past their prime for cleaning, I keep a bag of them under the sink. The label tip is new to me and I am looking forward to trying it as I have a TON of long, thick hair and I shed constantly. It's really annoying, to be honest, because even with a daily clean, there are always stray hairs about. Thanks for the great tips!

Can the cleaning fairy please come to Dallas, TX? This video is wonderful.

Love your label-cleaner! Truly brilliant. The only one I have is using mesh onion bags (scrunched and tied together) as a scrubber.

Thanks for the tips. I use crumpled newspaper, not the glossier ad type, but regular newspaper to wash windows and it works really great. Just dip the crumpled newspaper into a pail of warm water with a little vinegar added to dampen the newspaper. Then just wash the windows. Then use a dry piece of crumpled newspaper to dry the window. Try it, you will be amazed. I haven’t used cloth cleaners or paper towels to clean windows in years.

Yes I reuse my dryer sheet to clean the dust bunnies & also use Clorox bottles to hold flowers, cleaning gloves or storing extra cleaning rags, re-use paper towel & tp rolls to hold my phone cords I have more that I re-use recycle ♻️

Wendy, you never cease to amaze me with the ideas you come up with, brilliant! I don't think I have ever cleaned out my sink drains! Love the fairy Godmother wand! On another note, your nails look so pretty, do you do those yourself? Thanks for another great video and ideas! Have a wonderful weekend, Wendy! 🌞

Tip. If you have dish or pan that has a lot of burnt on grime take a few of your used dryer sheets and let it soak for a hour or so, and then wipe it out with them. It takes off a lot of brunt grime, making it easier to clean and you reused the dryer sheets.

Wow what great ideas!!! Thank you for sharing.

[lindakim]

You're very creative. Thanks for sharing.

[Gracie]

Great tips! I especially appreciate the cleaning wand. :)

Great tips as always. I have so many trash cleaning tips.
Leftover lemon/lime/tamarind/potato skins/banana skin work great for metal polishing.
Used tea bags (dried out) work great to absorb odors from flasks, insulated coffee mugs.

Plastic loofahs get a second life for quick everyday shower door cleaning.

[VaraVannerSimpleLiving]

You're so creative Wendy. I've definetly used dryer sheets to dust before, and made funnels out of plastic bottles. Thanks for sharing. Full watch, big like as always! 😊👍

[radicallyforjesus]

I love frugal ideas myself, but you take it who a whole new level. You are the master at it!

[countrybootsgirl]

I'm doing the drain tip with my sinks. Thank you. I love reusable items coffee cans are my favorite.

[SusyB]
