Glittery Gifts

Sometimes wrapping paper and ornaments shed their tiny glitter bits, and you are left with micro-bits of shiny material on your rug or carpet, so small they might escape the vacuum cleaner. Here’s a very tiny tip: When the carpet’s covered in glitter from ornaments, decorating and celebrating, grab a ball of Play-Do. Roll it over the mess to pick up the loose bits of shine. That’s about as much housecleaning as we’re going to do today.
