Can you guess what I’m doing with rice and Dawn dish soap?
Nope… this is NOT meal prep. 😂
We’re cleaning! 🫧
A client presented me with a cleaning challenge: her beautiful glass light fixtures had previously been cleaned with glass cleaner, but unfortunately, it left behind a stubborn film on the inside.
The problem? These glass bulbs aren’t exactly hand-accessible. I couldn’t simply reach inside with a cloth and wipe them down.
So… time to get creative.
I present:
🫧 Dawn dish soap
💧 Warm water
🍚 Rice
The uncooked rice gives just enough gentle scrubbing action to help loosen the film while the soapy water does the cleaning, without needing to somehow fit my entire arm inside the fixture.
Sometimes cleaning isn’t about having a fancy product. It’s about figuring out the problem and finding a solution.
And yes… that glass is going to sparkle again, see pictures for the before and after. ✨
