I’m in awe at the scenic landscape that I saw while browsing for Gatlinburg vacations. But I don’t want to deviate from my topic on this post, as I’m afraid I would all the more pine for a short vacation which is to say the least, not a priority at this time.
So, this time I’m sharing with you a couple of ways to use white vinegar other than using it in a recipe. Did you know that you can use it to polish patent leather? Yes! By using a cloth that is dampened with white vinegar in full strength, and wiping off the remains until shine is restored. I would not have known this until a friend shared this tip to me.
If you are in the middle of your DIY painting job at home, this tip may be helpful too. Hot white vinegar can soften a hardened paintbrush. All you have to do, is warm the vinegar in the microwave until it boils. Drop the paintbrush and let it soak overnight.
Thanks for the tip about the paintbrushes. I will be trying that one out his weekend.

@ Sherri
please let me know how it went. I’m glad this tip can be of help.
@ Mommy Kennedy
thanks for the affirmation! white vinegar rocks!
I know that there are tons of uses for vinegar but the paint brush one I hadn’t heard of. I’ll have to remember that one the next time I’m painting
I wish I had read this before I went out Saturday to buy new brushes.
I’ll know the next time.
