stained marble

natural method for removing the stained from marble:

1) baking soda + water => baking soda paste

2) 1 part of salt + 4 parts of cornstarch + water => salt-cornstarch paste

apply on the affected area, leave for overnight until it's completely dried, the stained can be removed.

i tried both, and i think the cornstarch works better, but it works on mild stained only!

Orange Peel 蚊香




i bought the ultrasonic anti-mosquito machine, it doesn't work at all, so i go back to the old method and use the traditional 蚊香, but the smell is too strong and so chemical, after using one night we stop using it, and find this fruity method as a replacement.
