Double Duty

Break out those old paintbrushes to make tedious cleaning easier!

A soft bristled paintbrush is the perfect tool for sweeping the dust out of a keyboard.

• Dust your car vents and controls
• Use a clean, synthetic paintbrush to baste pastries or meat
• Dust baseboards, blinds, and lampshades
• Give your kids a few paintbrushes with buckets of water to "paint" the sidewalk or fence (thanks Angie!)
• Try using natural bristled paintbrushes to apply eyeshadow
• Pack a paintbrush for your next beach trip for dusting off sandy feet before getting in the car.
• Cleaning window screens
