Problem area: lamp shades!

March 13, 2008 | Cleaning tips

I have white fabric lamp shades on the lamps in most rooms of my home. When the lamps are on they show more dust than my grandfather’s apartment. My feather duster doesn’t do a good enough job on them, and who really wants to pull out the big, cumbersome vacuum attachment every time they see some dust on a shade?

Favorite tool?  A lint roller! It does the job quick and easy, and it’s small for easy storage. I’m all over that. Alternatively, masking tape or duct tape wrapped around your hand (sticky side out of course) would work in a pinch; but the lint roller is much easier. And it won’t break the bank. I promise.

    Yes those things are really hard to clean and catches dusts easily. In my room I have white window shades and they becomes dirty very frequently, which is very tiresome to clean. Everytime I have to open them and wash. Really looking for a cleaning alternative, can you suggest one ?
