Sinopsis

The Finishing Touches housekeeping series harkens back to the day when people knew how to do things: a young girl would have learned the proper way to sew a button at her mother's knee; a young man's father would have demonstrated how to polish a pair of shoes. Those days are gone, and we're all more likely to run to the tailor or the shoemaker (if we're lucky enough to still have one close by) for the simplest of tasks. And sadly, the even more common result is the perfectly good item that ends up getting tossed because we lack the very basic knowledge needed to mend it. Cleanliness is Next to...contains information on the essential cleaning arsenal: what you should always have on hand and what are the best products for each task. Cleaning tips include how to maintain and care for your favorite wardrobe items; polishing boots and shoes; spot cleaning suede and leather; achieving streak-free glass and mirrored surfaces; polishing jewelry; maintaining hardwood surfaces without damaging the finish; and scratch-free metal cleaning. Also included are the Do's and Don'ts of Dusting, CPR for Stains, and a chart of commons stains and the best way to remove them. Stylishly designed and filled with clear, step-by-step illustrations, this book is sure to appeal to all aspiring do-it-yourselfers.
