Remove Ballpen Marks
Has your budding child artist scrawled all over your desk while pretending to be an “office” worker, or has he or she adorned a painted wall in your house with a ballpoint original? “Keep your cool and dab some full-strength white vinegar on the “masterpiece” with a towel or a sponge until the markings are no longer visible, then go out and get a good large sketch pad for your youngster.”
Clean Your Sticky Scissors
If your scissor blades become sticky or dusty, don’t wash them with water; you’ll rust the fastener that holds the blades together—or the blades themselves—rather than clean them. Instead, saturate a cloth in full-strength white vinegar and dry it with a rag or dishtowel to clean the blades.
