Pinterest Test Lab: Cleaning the Shower Floor

The Pinterest Test Lab button

I totally didn’t mean to announce my new series and then not mention it again for weeks…oops.  Time got away from me!  But that doesn’t mean I haven’t been busy testing and doing the projects I’ve pinned!  I also want to say that I would love to make this into a linky party where all of you can share things you’ve tested or done from pins on Pinterest!  So I’m thinking next week I will share some more ideas and then at the end of the week you can share yours!  I will make a grab button that you can include on your test lab posts just like I have done above and then join my party!

********************

Now I’m going to share my dirty little secret…no judging!

We’ve lived in our house for going on 4 years in August.  And the bottom of my shower has been impossible to get clean in all that time!  There’s been a ring of dirt that I couldn’t get off no matter what product I used or how much I scrubbed and scrubbed…and scrubbed…and scrubbed…I’d pretty much given up hope.

THEN one day I came across {this} pin, Marissa, from Finely Ground, gave me just the solution I’d been searching for!  She tested lots of natural remedies and found the answer…

20 Mule Team Borax.

I took a picture of the bottom of my shower after scrubbing half of it with this awesome stuff:

It was amazing!

Now, I will say I still had to scrub…a lot.  But nothing else I’ve ever scrubbed with even made the slightest difference.  Now it’s totally clean and {almost} like new!  So nice to finally get rid of that ring of dirt!

Borax is really cheap {found in the laundry aisle} and can be used for dozens of cleaning duties!   So go get some and start cleaning something!
