Clean your woodwork

Dear Heloise: How can I clean my woodwork without breaking the bank? — Nina A., Jupiter, Fla.

Nina, mix 1 part white vinegar with 2 parts water. Using a clean sponge, dip into the water/vinegar solution, wring out the excess water and wipe the woodwork. Dry the woodwork, then polish with a clean cloth.

FYI: Give those yucky sponges a weekly cleaning by tucking them between glasses or cups in the top rack of the dishwasher. — Heloise
