Polly's Pointers on Home Hacks and Cleanliness
Dear Polly offers practical tips from readers covering hat protection during travel in a plastic bag with air inflated and secured, ash removal using damp newspaper to trap dust, and using shirt cardboard as a picker. Other notes suggest assembling frosted cupcakes in lunchbox order, safe washing of fragile glassware by water-lengthwise entry, refurbishing stuffed toys by reusing stuffing, and using a toothbrush to fluff fur hats, clean stuffed animals, and brush suede or corduroy shoes.
