Dusting Blinds Just Got Easier
(Thanks to This Sock Trick)
Let’s be honest — cleaning blinds isn’t anyone’s favourite chore. Dust flies everywhere, traditional dusters just push it around, and wiping each slat individually feels like a workout. But there’s a clever little hack that makes the job simple and strangely satisfying: the sock trick.
The Sock Trick for Sparkling Blinds
Here’s how it works:
- Grab a clean old sock and slip it over your hand like a glove.
- Dampen it slightly with water or a gentle all-purpose cleaner.
- Run your hand along each slat — the sock fabric traps dust instead of scattering it.
No fancy tools needed, just a sock and a few minutes of your time.
Why It Works So Well
- 360° clean — your hand naturally fits around the slats, so you clean both sides in one swipe.
- Dust magnet — cotton socks cling to dust instead of letting it float around.
- Eco-friendly — toss the sock in the wash and reuse it instead of buying disposables.
Bonus Tips
- Set a 5–10 minute timer and tackle one room at a time — it stops the job from feeling overwhelming.
- For a little extra freshness, add a few drops of lemon or eucalyptus oil to your solution.
