Breck’s – $25 Off $50 Order
Spot Clean Oriental Rugs
Spot-clean Oriental rugs by adding 1/4 cup white vinegar to two cups cool water. Add one squirt of liquid dish detergent; stir gently. Use a brush or sponge, dipped in the vinegar solution, to clean the spill. The vinegar prevents dyes in the rug from running.

How to Remove A Bumper Sticker
To remove a bumper sticker from a vehicle, spray on a little spray lubrication, like WD-40. Then work a plastic spatula (or paint scraper) under the corners until you can get as much of it up as you can. Don’t use a razor blade, as it will scratch up the paint.
You might also try using a hair dryer to heat and loosen the sticker.
When you have the sticker off, use a plastic scrubbie and dish soap to get leftover adhesive. Follow that with rubbing alcohol.
Clear The Air With Houseplants
Some houseplants actually help to clean or purify the air in your home. Here is a list of some of the best plants to use: Spider Plant, Peace Lily, Reed Palm, Dracaena, Weeping Fig, Philodendron, Bamboo Palm, Golden Pothos, English Ivy, and Ficus. These are usually very easy to grow.
A recent report from NASA says that not only are these plants decorative for the home, but they can be useful in other modern buildings in that they can absorb potentially harmful gases and other indoor pollutants, such as Formaldehyde, Benzene, and Carbon Monoxide.
Place one or a few of the ornamental plants in each room of your house to naturally clear the air.
