Here’s the classic “grandma hack” to make dusty blinds sparkle in about 2 minutes with almost no effort — it’s actually super simple:
🪟 Nana’s 2-Minute Blinds Hack
What you need:
- Old socks (clean!) or microfiber cloths
- A dusting spray or just water (optional)
How it works:
- Slip a sock over your hand – this is your “dusting glove.”
- Glide over the blinds – top to bottom or side to side, letting the sock trap dust.
- Flip the sock when one side is full of dust.
- Optional: Lightly spray the sock with water or a mild cleaning spray for extra shine.
💡 Bonus: Microfiber gloves or dusters work even faster. The key is trapping dust rather than pushing it around.
Extra Quick Tip:
- If your blinds are really grimy, spray them with a 50/50 vinegar-water mix first and then use the sock/glove method.
- Doing both sides at once: just pinch the blind slat between two socks or cloths and slide — dust goes away instantly.
This literally takes under 2 minutes per window and you don’t have to take the blinds down or scrub. ✨
