SPRING CLEANING:   Last month we had an email question about cleaning blinds. So we decided to add some instructions on how to spring clean with safe and effective cleaners which you can make yourself at home with products you may already have on hand.  (The answer to blind cleaning is to vacuum the larger ones where they hang and wash smaller blinds in a bathtub filled with warm water and ammonia.)
