Oh, I know the type of hack you’re talking about — your nana probably has a super simple trick that makes dusty blinds look almost new with minimal effort! Here’s a safe and easy 2-minute method:
Nana’s 2-Minute Dusty Blinds Hack
What You Need
- A clean sock (cotton works best)
- Old tongs or a long spoon/tweezer for reach (optional)
- Optional: a little water or vinegar spray
Steps
- Put the sock on your hand.
- Slide your hand along each slat of the blind — top to bottom.
- The sock grabs the dust instantly.
- For really dirty blinds, lightly dampen the sock with water or a mix of water + vinegar.
- Flip the blind over and repeat the other side if needed.
✅ Done in 2 minutes, no ladders or complicated cleaning sprays.
Why It Works
- The sock acts like a mini microfiber cloth, trapping dust instead of just moving it around.
- Using tongs lets you reach high blinds without climbing.
💡 Extra Tips
- Wash the sock afterward so it’s ready for next time.
- For really stubborn grime, a few sprays of vinegar + water on the sock works wonders.
- This trick works on vertical or horizontal blinds and even shutters.
If you want, I can show a variation that cleans all your blinds in under 5 minutes without touching each slat individually — it’s basically “magic.”
Do you want me to do that?
