Swipe ⬅️ for 🔟 quick tricks to revolutionise your routine — save to keep your home fresh + sparkling! 🧼🫶🏼
1️⃣ Stove Top Deep Clean:
Remove grates and soak briefly in soapy water (don’t leave too long or they may rust). Soak burners in lemon + baking soda (bicarb) + boiling water. Make a paste (baking soda + dish soap + water), scrub, then wipe with a microfibre cloth. For extra-deep clean, use a steamer (available ). 🧽
2️⃣ Tough Oil Stains. Let’s fix it!
🧽 Blot excess oil with a paper towel
🧴 Mix 1 tbsp dish soap + 2 tbsp baking soda
✨ Apply + gently rub in
⏳ Rest ~30 min
🧺 Then wash in the machine
3️⃣ Dishwasher tips
• Use vinegar instead of rinse aid for shine + fewer water spots.
• Pop a crumpled foil ball in the cutlery basket to revive shine.
• After the cycle, drape a dish towel over the door — it absorbs moisture/steam.
4️⃣ Washing Machine Deep Clean:
Clean filters with soapy water + a little tea tree oil. Wash the detergent tray and wipe the rubber seal. Run a hot cycle with bicarbonate of soda in the drum. Keep the door open between cycles for airflow. 🫧
5️⃣ Microwave Steam Clean:
Add 2 cups of water, 1 tsp of dish soap, and 1 cup of lemon juice to a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 5 mins, then keep the door closed for 15 mins to let the steam work. Wipe clean with a damp sponge. 🍋🧼
6️⃣ 🚰 Sink Clog-Free:
Line the sink with cling film, pour cooled oil onto it, then bin it — pipe-safe + mess-free!
7️⃣ Black Mould Removal:
Mix 1 cup hydrogen peroxide (3%) + 1 tsp tea tree oil. Spray, cover with tissue to soak, then scrub + wipe. Wear gloves or wash your hands after. Avoid marble/natural stone. Store in a dark bottle. 🧴
8️⃣ 🫧 Sparkling Kettle Tip:
Fill with equal parts water and white vinegar, bring to the boil, stand for 30 mins, then pour out. Refill with fresh water, boil again, and discard. Limescale, gone.
