Tea is a great, natural way to
clean and polish wood furniture. Brew a full pot of tea and allow it
to cool to room temperature. Then dip a light colored, clean towel
in the tea and gently rub the wet end of the towel along the surface
of wooden furniture. The tea removes light stains and scratches and
leaves the furniture shining.
If you wipe mirrors down with room temperature tea, they will be
clean and streak-free. A microfiber towel or newspaper both work
well.
Empty wet tea leaves into a bowl and sprinkle them across the
fireplace before cleaning. The wet tea leaves absorb the ash, making
it easier to clean the fireplace and with less dust.
Add a few used tea bags to the bottom of a planter before adding
soil. The tea bags absorb excess water.
Used tag bags actually absorb odors in small spaces, much like
baking soda does. Let tea bags dry completely and add to sock
drawers or toss a bag into shoes or sneakers. The bags soak up odors
for a few weeks.
