How Do I Remove Old Fabric Dye From Cotton?A number of years ago, I ordered an ivory cotton tote bag stenciled with dark gray fabric dye. Since then, the images have faded quite a bit. I have an idea for repurposing the bag and ways to redecorate it; but I'm wondering if there's any way to remove the rest of the old fabric dye? Soaking the bag in bleach got me only so far.
Cleaning a Toothbrush Used for Cleaning?Perhaps this is a silly question, but I was wondering what are some ways to clean a toothbrush specifically used for general cleaning chores?
Cleaning a Varnished Surface?I'm making my own art journal, and after covering the cardboard cover with fabric, I used an acrylic varnish/sealer to seal it. What kind of cleaner would be safest to use to wipe it clean from little dirt spots, etc. without stripping the varnish. Perhaps a homemade vinegar-based cleaner?
Storing Paint Thinner in a Plastic Bottle?Can you store paint thinner in a soap dispenser bottle for easy painting/crafting?
Cleaning WD-40 Residue?Whenever I use WD-40, I notice it leaves an oily residue. I usually just clean it with a homemade all-purpose or degreaser spray, but I was wondering if anyone had any other ways that are perhaps a little easier?
