Decorative lighting can add a touch of drama to your home. But these fixtures can also be a bit of a pain to clean because they often have delicate (or intricate) parts. Luckily, the website All You found an easy way to clean chandeliers without having to strain yourself.
First, unplug or turn off the chandelier. Then, make a solution of one part vodka and five parts water, pour into a spray bottle and spritz the fixture. Finally, use a hair dryer on a low setting to dry the area and remove any lingering debris.
