If your like me, you have hardwood, laminate or linoleum floors and sweeping is how you clean them.
Do you have one of those sweepers that uses expensive refills?
You really don't need to buy those.
It's very easy to make your own sweeper pads for zero dollars!
That's right....they will cost you nothing.
Best of all they are washable and reusable.
I use a model that has a built in vacuum because I have 2 cats that shed like crazy and I find it picks up the hair better than just a sweeper.
This will work for any model that uses reusable pads though.
First...
Find a sports sock that has seen better days.
You know, the one with the elastic that keeps falling down or the hole in the toes.
Size it up to your sweeper and cut off the extra length.
Make it a bit longer than your sweeper.
Now , cut the sock open so it's laying flat.
Trim off the edges and put on your sweeper like one of those disposable ones...
This works great for picking up the dust and dirt from the floor.
Best of all, I can throw it in the washer and think of all the money I save by doing this!!
You must have a sock or two waiting for a new purpose in your laundry room?
