Surpising New uses for Household Items!


Let's face it: cleaning is no fun. No matter what Martha Stuart says, house cleaning will always be a dreaded consequence of having your own home. But, here at Dan Ryan Builders, we try to make the process a bit more entertaining with these creative and fun tips! Each of these is a re-imagined way to use your favorite household items. Get ready to be shocked! Here we go:
0604red-shoe

    Walnut used to revitalize hardwood floors
  • Before clearing snow off a driveway, liberally spray both sides of a plastic or metal shovel with cooking spray. The ice will slide right off the oily surface. It's the easiest trick for smoother snow removal
  •  Remove small stains from suede by gently rubbing a nail file (either side) across the problem area a few times to get rid of the splotch.
  • Add this to the grocery shopping list for new reasons. Cornmeal absorbs grease on light colored fabric or upholstery. Pour enough on to cover the soiled area and let sit for 15 to 30 minutes. Vacuum to remove the grains. 
  •  Repair hardwood floors by rubbing shelled walnuts into shallow scratches. Their natural oils help hide the flaws.
I hope these helped! Now get out there and clean!!

Festive 4th of July entertaining ideas!!

Well, it's that time of year again! Time to bust out your American flags and red, white, and blue decor for America's birthday!

We know that many of you are having parties and backyard barbeques tomorrow. So, we wanted to give you a couple of tips on how to decorate your beautiful Dan Ryan Builders home:
  • Think of cold beverages as a decorating opportunity. Chill berry-flavored bottled juices or sodas in metal tubs filled with ice; you'll not only keep guests cool but also sneak in a few extra red, white and blue touches to carry the party's patriotic theme.  
  • With the harsh summer heat and intense rays of the sun in full effect, it's important your Fourth of July guests remain hydrated and UV-protected. Keep outdoor essentials nearby with a supply station stylishly stocked with rolled towels, sunblock and ice-cold water
  •  Who says Fourth of July decorating has to be all stars and stripes? Give your Independence Day decor a modern update by introducing red, white and blue through modern graphic patterns. 
With these tips, you're 4th of July party is sure to be the best in the neighborhood!
