Every have that really pretty vase but there is always a stain at the bottom of it and your hands are too big to actually remove it. Here is a great tip for you. Drop 2 Alka-Seltzer tablets in it with warm water. And if you have jewelry that needs cleaning…do it at the same time…put it in there for 2 minutes. Remember though – some jewelry should not be cleaned like this – pearls and opals are among the ones.
