Whew, I feel like I’m just coming up for air from the past week and a half and all things Prime Day and the Barbie movie premiere! The movie was cute with no shortage of pink and sparkle and what a fun filled two days we had with Prime Day. If you shopped it I hope you scored some good deals or knocked out some holiday shopping early.
But it wasn’t all Prime Day and Premieres. Since the last newsletter I’ve also shared some things I’m totally loving (and you all are too) and some cleaning tips you’ll want to keep on hand. So keep reading for what you may have missed.

DIY Multi-Purpose Cleaner
Easily make your own multi-surface cleaner with a few simple ingredients. And it’s safe to use on nearly every surface including natural stone countertops.
DIY Multi-Purpose Cleaner Recipe:
– 1.5 cups water (I liked distilled but tap works too. The shelf life is a little longer with distilled and if using on glass or mirrors the minerals in tap could scratch).
– 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol
– a few drops of Castile or dish soap
Q:
How do you remove Sharpie/ink stains?
A:
This is one of the most popular cleaning questions I get but luckily there’s a simple solution….WD-40 or Amodex. I tested both out on sharpie, dry erase marker and even nail polish on carpet and both worked great and getting them up. They didn’t however, work for removing those stains from clothing so I’m still testing some methods for that. But for marks or spills on carpet those are 2 great go-to’s.
