Can I wash my mini blinds in the dish washer?
I have the el cheapo’s for mini blinds. The ones from wal-mart.
Would it be safe to wash them in my dishwasher on the lightest cycle?

Uh… I wouldn’t. It may be a huge disaster resulting in not only having to buy new blinds, but a new dishwasher. Just get a shallow bin that the blinds will fit in (we used to use a kid’s sled) and fill it with warm soapy water. Slosh them around for a while, use a sponge to get the gunk off, and hang them up to dry. It shouldn’t take very long at all.
Yeah, I’d recommend against it as well. They’re probably going to melt, and if they don’t, they may have lead in them (which may contaminate your dishwasher).
ok, thanks…
I guess I’ll have to do it the manual way,
was hoping for a short cut, I hate absolutely hate washing my windows!
I wouldn’t. If you want to take them down and clean them. I would fill up the bathtub and use some soap/cleaner to clean them. You can do this with a towel or a sponge to wash off the dust. Then just hang them out in the sun to dry. It works well.
Wow babygalll, that is an amazing tip. :-/
