Dusting kits like those made by Swiffer are nice, but are disposable and end up costing quite a bit of money. Here's how to ditch the store-bought products and make your own pre-treated, reusable dust cloth out of an old t-shirt.
Every day, no matter what we do, dust tends to creep into our homes and settles in. With just an old t-shirt, some lemons, olive oil, and hot water, you can banish it again and again without spending any extra money on overpriced cleaning products.
Just cut the t-shirt into pieces and soak it in a glass container filled with half a cup of hot water, two tablespoons of olive oil, and the juice from 2 lemons. Put the cotton pieces of the t-shirt in the solution, cover, and let it sit for 2 hours. After drying, they'll pick up dust like nobody's business, keeping your tables, electronics, and everything else sparkly clean.
