Remove paint splatter from wood trim AFTER IT DRIES!!

So Oh my gosh! This is so amazing! When I bought my house, I noticed that the previous painters did a really bad job of coloring in the lines (see above). It really bothers me when I see paint splatters all over these lovely wood borders :( But these had clearly been there a long time and were definitely dried paint so...what to do?

You knew I already had an answer, right? Of course you did! Look how beautiful they came out!!

Here's another BEFORE picture. I just took an old toothbrush and dipped it in rubbing alcohol and brushed it away.

All gone!! Awesome. Easy. Done.
Here's another one I did^^  Before..
..and the amazing after!

DIY Furniture Polish that makes Scratches Disappear Like Magic!!!

These chairs started out pretty rough looking.

But with a few things from the cupboard, they were shiny and lovely again!

I mixed 3 parts vegetable oil (or olive oil) with 1 part vinegar (white or cider vinegar works). So depending on how much you need, you could do 3/4cp oil to 1/4cp vinegar and keep it in a labeled container for next time!

Just grab a rag, dip it in the polish, and rub it in to the wood. The scratches disappear like magic in front of your very eyes!! It's that easy ( and not to mention cheap). The polish is great for wood thanks to the oil that gives the wood moisture and helps prevent cracks/ splits. You can use this polish as frequently as you like and there are no harsh chemicals. It's all natural!
