How often have you replaced fabric lampshades because of dirt build-up? Decorating editor Jeanie Sims has some great tips for making those shades last a lot longer. -- AP
There are several ways to clean a lampshade:
1. Use a hairdryer set on the low, cool setting, positioning the dryer at the top so the air blows down.
2. Remove dust with a lint roller.
3. For pleated shades, try brushing with a clean paintbrush.
4. Tide To Go pens are not just for clothes stains. If you’ve got a stain on a lampshade, try the pen. It might not work for every stain, but it will work for many.
There are few things harder to clean than lampshades. Thanks for the tips, Jeanie! -- AP
