How do you clean blinds?
Or is it better to just get new ones 
I hate my ugly plastic blinds  They look so dingy. I always swiffer them and sometimes windex them but I have about 30 windows in my house...

I put them in the tub with hot water and a little bleach. Wipe them down with a sponge, rinse, dry and hang back up.

I used to do that too when we had blinds.

Exactly what I used to do in my apartment. My DH has taken on the task . I'm not sure what he does  .

Re: How do you clean blinds?
I do my best to clean them with either a damp rag or a rag soaked in windex. I get new ones fairly often, too. When I lived in the city, I used to pay a porter to hose them down and then he would hang them to dry. They came out great but I haven't tried it at my house.
