Tip of the Day #95: DIY Microfiber Couch Cleaner

Last night, I took the time the time to clean my entire microfiber couch because it was looking a little worn and stained my from kiddos! So what did I use?? RUBBING ALCOHOL & A SCRUB BRUSH! Just pour the bottle of rubbing alcohol into a spray bottle and spray generously over your entire cushion surface (doing one cushion at a time), then scrub with the brush. It takes a bit of elbow grease, but definitely worth it! Feel free to repeat on spots that are worse than others :)
