TRULY – a fran-frickin-tastic tip! We have triple glass sliding doors, that lovingly every morning cast a beautiful glow in our living room… and then reveal the frog poop & slime from their outings the night before! lol This tip will be a HUGE help – esp. since the swiffer is just steps away in the laundry room. THANK YOU – and thanks for hosting another fab party!

Thanks for the tip. Wonderful idea. I will try this homemade solution.
Thanks for the great tips on window cleaning. I have a panel of three windows next to each other in my living room, and I've barely done so much as touch them with windex! This will hopefully make it go quicker!
I've just started a new blog, I'd love for you to come check it out!

I've avoided cleaning my high windows as I wasn't about to break my neck on a ladder trying to clean them. I just figured they'd have to stay dirty in order for me to stay out of a body cast 🙂 Well, now thanks to your BRILLANCY I can clean them & not risk breaking my neck or winding up in a body cast! Thank You 🙂
Thanks for hosting–such great inspiration here! 🙂
Thanks for hosting!! I headen over to check out the Bama Baby Registry! 🙂
We have big tall windows in our living room that we have NEVER cleaned… guess I have to clean them now that there's an easy way! So thanks, I think 😉 Lol
What a great tip! And a great way to give. Thanks!
Hi Beth,
Great tip for the windows, especially now with the weather warming up, I do need to clean them!
Awesome idea, Beth. Thanks for the tip and thanks for hosting. 😀
Great tip! Thanks for sharing. Great party, too!
Great tip! Thanks for sharing. Great party, too!
Love the idea of using the swiffer!!! Fantastic!
Fine. I'll clean my gosh darn windows already! : ) You're right that haze is disgusting and I have to get my screens out and clean them, too. Great tip and idea to use the swiffer, Beth ~ I actually have one of those and will have to try this. I'm going to try your cleaning solution as well.
Great tip, Beth! (and thanks for hosting)
Hi Beth,
I've got a bit of a different kind of tutorial for you today. Not that you need that one, but someone else might.
Love you and your clean windows!
That is a great tip. I can't wait to try your window cleaner recipe. It is so dust here that I actually use the swiffer to dust off the windows before I clean them.

While my method is easier (don't wash them at all) yours seems much more effective…. 🙂
Great idea! I never thought to use the swiffer. I always have a time reaching the windows outside the house and this should do the trick! My first time linking up, thanks for hosting!
