It's in the Bag Again...in the shower


Our shower head clogs up with hard-water deposits. I know it's bad when the little sprays are spraying every which way instead of right down on me. There are two good ways to attack this.

1) Dear Hubby takes the shower head off and soaks it in a bowl of white vinegar. It works!!

2) If you don't want to or can't take the shower head off, try this. You'll need a plastic bag, a strong rubber band, and white vinegar. Be fully warned that this is a little tricky, but you will be attaching the bag of white vinegar to the shower head so that it's soaking in the vinegar (see picture). It's best to put the rubber band on the shower head first, and double it if you need to. Then fill up the bag and attach it to the shower head with the rubber band. Proceed carefully, or you'll end up smelling like vinegar for the rest of the day. Let it soak a few hours, and the problem is gone.

White vinegar is a natural wonder. I'll share more ideas about it later.
