Hard Water & Lemons (make a sparkle!)

So I'm on Pinterest everyday! I'm always looking for new craft ideas, home decor ideas, and way to clean things naturally. I'm not one of those people that make their own laundry detergent, I'm NOT that dedicated and frankly don't have the time. It's always bugged me that my master bath shower fixtures always have these nasty water stains. I've tried all type of products and nothing seems to make a difference. It's so strange because our downstairs bath, which the girls use, and gets used just as frequently doesn't seem to have this problem.

Look at this, isn't it nasty?

So I found this idea on Pinterest, at the Broccoli Cupcake blog! The idea is to use lemons, vinegar and baking soda.

I have to admit I pinned it and then today from memory went and tried it out. I completely forgot that I was suppose to use vinegar and baking soda, I just used straight lemons. Once I smeared lemon all over the fixtures, I scrubbed with my sponge and then rinsed off. Look at the results!

I'm impressed! I'll have to pay attention to how long this lasts. Next time I will add the vinegar and baking soda. Here's a photo without flash, look at my reflection!!

Thanks for stopping by!
