If you've ever tried to clean the dust off your ceiling fan blades, you know that this can create a big mess. Dust tends to get knocked off the blades of the ceiling fan, and it then gets everywhere in your house. To keep this from happening, use an old pillow case. Just spray the inside of the pillow case with furniture polish and then carefully put the pillow case over the blade of the ceiling fan. Slide the pillow case off of the fan blade while applying pressure to the fan blade, and all of the dust will end up in the pillow case. Repeat for all of the fan blades on your ceiling fan and you'll have a clean fan and a clean house.
