Wooden blinds

Yes I’d heard about the tumble drier sheets. I’ll give anything a go.
We have three windows in each bedroom, so alot of blind to dust 😡.
We bought this house from ds1 who had the blinds installed. They’re too good to replace but such a pain to clean.

Thanks for the ideas 🙏

On the day mine were installed I was advised to close them and rub them all over with a tumble dryer sheet and they are all I use now, once every two weeks or so.

Yes fabric conditioner diluted, clean the blinds then dilute the fabric conditioner and rub over with a micro fibre cloth, it is anti static.

The ones in the bedrooms are fine, just a quick dust.

The large one in the kitchen, well that’s a different story, I find myself standing in the worktop with a bowl of soapy water and a mountain of e-cloths…

I use the vacuum cleaner with a soft brush head to dust mine every now and then.
Then washing up liquid in warm water rubbed along with a microfibre cloth.

Mine are in the conservatory and are a spider’s dream home it seems, so I put a squirt of vinegar in the cleaning water too.

They were in situ when we bought the house and I am reluctant to replace them, being of the ‘make do and mend’ frame of mind. But….. once they start to fail out they will go with no regrets!

I’ve gone for Roman blinds in my conservatory, one wooden blind is enough to look after.

I drip the tiniest amount of washing up liquid into a half bucket of warm water, then a well wrung out microfibre. Finish off with a dry microfibre.
This dry dusty summer had me desperately hoping someone would just invent some gadget!

They’re a pain in the proverbial, aren’t they GG. 😡

I put on a pair of cotton gloves and run my fingers through them. Maybe a bit of furniture polish or similar sprayed on them.
You can't stop dust though...can you?

No, but I would be interested to know myself 😹
