Sparkle!

Summer parties and glass dishes always go well together and below are a few tips on getting your glassware looking its best!

Glass can usually be cleaned by washing in warm, soapy water followed by a clear rinse. If the glass article is particularly dirty, add a drop of vinegar or ammonia to the detergent solution. For extra sparkle, the rinse water can also have a few drops of vinegar added. After rinsing, dry glass with a clean, lint-free cloth (linen is ideal) or water spots will remain.

If the bottom of a vase, decanter or similar narrow necked vessel has become grimy and washing in the above solution fails to affect the dirty deposit, try a spoonful of sand in the bottom, using a funnel if necessary. Add a drop of liquid detergent, a few drops of white vinegar and enough warm water to cover the bottom of the vessel, swish the abrasive mixture around the base, rinse and repeat as necessary.
