Cleaning & Laundry - June 2006

My puppy thought she was Jackie Joyner again today and took a mad dash and jumped on the chair..well she was aiming for the chair. She missed and landed in candle wax from a candle warmer. BRIGHT RED candle wax! She is not hurt but she is left with the emotional scar of embarrassment and the fact that she has been caught RED PAWED! Soooo....my question "how the heck am I suppose to get it off?" No, wise guy comments about using a IRON this is serious! She looks crazy! Please help!

My best friend is neat, but she hasn't cleaned her oven in a long while. Any ideas? There's got to be something better than easy-off.

I've recently switched to city water and want to get the orange stains out of the tub. I've tried bleach and I've tried Lime Away and neither of those worked. Any suggestions?

their kids can never find anything clothes shoes, bathing suits anything...
I have a full time job I work 12 hours a day 5 days a week and my house is Clean the laundry and dishes are done. I don't have help
so what's the deal what do you do all day Get your kids to help Make them listen! My do!
If my kids take something out they put it back where they got it from when they are done!!!
To all you mom's who have kids and A hectic schedule I know it is hard work but how long does it take to do some laundry and sweep the floor people think that it is such hard work it takes no time at all if you keep on top of it but if you never do it. It can get to be so overwhelming that you don't even know where to begin!
I am by no means a clean freak but I keep my things clean and can find stuff and my kids things!
So what's your excuse? why can you never finds your kids things when you are at home 24-7 with them

You place the cap inside and then wash it in either the dishwasher or washing machine. My husband says "no" -- because baseball caps have cardboard inside the visors. But I know people who swear by them ... does it ruin the caps??

My roommate's cat went on a pissing spree all over the house and now everything smells of cat pee. It is the worst smell ever. Does anyone have any good tips for getting the smell out? Inexpensive methods are best for me. Thank you!

My sons use their bean bag chairs to lounge on while watching TV and playing video games. I notice that the chairs smell like cat urine. The bean bag chairs have a fabric cover. What can I wash them in to get rid of the smell?

This beast is a gas 6 burner 2 stove range with a griddle. It was made by South Bend probably in the 1920's. I would like to know: 1.what I should clean it with in daily use & 2. What I should 'Spring clean' it with to make it shine (or some equivalent, for black cast iron!) Thanks for any advice in advance.

I bought this beautiful skirt that's 100% Rayon material, but it has a thick elastic band that holds it up at the waist. Well, I had forgotten that it was dry clean only and hand washed it. It seems that the elastic had shrunk, because there's extra fabric around it, and it bowed. Now when I try to wear it, it will bow, twist, and pull up the longest layer of the skirt, which then exposes well..parts I don't want exposed. Is there any way of saving this skirt or have I messed it up for good? Thanks.

When I do laundry and turn the dryer on after moving the wet clothes from the washer, I've always wondered how lint is made during the drying process. Is there a special process that causes the dryer to create lint?
