Cleaning the blinds is definitely one of the worst chores in the house. Well I have found five perfect ideas to make that hard chore a little easier! Let me know what you think.
Cleaning Sock
Grab an old sock (from that endless pile with no matches), and it becomes the perfect blind cleaning tool. It helps you to clean both sides of the blind at the same time. Just slip the sock on your hand, dip it in a 50/50 solution of water and white vinegar, then swipe the sock over the slats for a quick and easy clean blinds! This clever idea is from Today.
Feather Duster
If your blinds just need a quick dusting use a feather duster
. Open the blinds and run a feather duster between each blind, to pick up the dust on both sides. Idea from WikiHow.
The Bathtub
This method takes a little bit more time, but less effort for you. Just cinch the blinds up for easy removal, and then let them soak in the bathtub with some dish detergent. Refill the tub with clean water to rinse and lay them out on a towel to dry! Idea from One Good Thing by Jillee.
Dryer Sheets
Who knew that dryer sheets could be such great dusters? Use them for cleaning your blinds, and not only will they dust great, but they also prevent dust from settling as quickly. Cleaning tip from America HVAC Parts.

I have used all of these ideas on my blinds and they really work, but i have found none of them to work in 30 seconds. As much as I wish it were otherwise really getting your blinds clean takes time. The dusting with the feather duster (I use a swiffer duster), takes only a couple of minutes per blind, which is still four times as long as 30 seconds.
