GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED
The winner was Cathy Taylor
One of my favorite things about blogging is that I get to team up with amazing brands and give away my favorite products. One of my "can't live without it" items is the Steam Mop Plus. To be honest, I use the handheld steamer that detaches more than the mop part. It has saved me from having to iron. The only thing that would make it better is if there were a travel sized version. I have withdrawls when I go somewhere and have to use the hotel iron.
Today I am sharing some tips on how to use this to get ready for the holidays. And of course, I am giving one away as well :)
* Tablecloths and Cloth Napkins
If you are like me, the only time the tablecloths see the light of day is during the holidays. They have almost permanent creases from being folded for the whole year. I hate ironing clothes but huge table cloths are the worst. If you have an indoor clothes line, it is easy to hang the table cloth up and steam away. If not, someone with long arms (my husband is the "volunteer" at our house) can hold it up for you while you quickly steam the wrinkles out. And while you are at it, why not give the napkins a steam?
* Holiday Pillows
Even though I keep my holiday throw pillows in plastic totes in the garage I still feel like they are dirty. At the very least they are stale (for lack of a better word). Most of the time holiday pillows are adorned with sequins, jingle bells, pompoms and other things that make us hesitate to throw them in the washing machine. The steamer is perfect for killing germs and refreshing those pretty pillows without harming them.
* Tree Skirts
Tree skirts fall into the same category as throw pillows as far as not wanting to throw them in the wash. But they need to be cleaned up too. The hand held steamer is perfect!
* Fancy Holiday Dress
Raise your hand if you only get dressed in "real" clothes when you HAVE to (raising both hand wildly in the air). The holiday season is jam packed with events that require real clothes. Get your fancy dress and suit all ready with the steamer. It is faster than ironing and it does a better job too.
* Floors
Do you want to know what I look forward to the LEAST when hosting a dinner or party? The fact that I have to mop before AND after the party. Make that task easier with the steam mop!
Here is my mop and a picture of all it comes with.
The center part detaches and becomes a hand held steamer. It rocks my world.
And, I just found out they JUST released a new chenille mop pad! It does not come with the mop but is only $12.99 on the HomeRight site.
