Housewife Hacks: Remove Shoe Scuffs With Banana Peels!

Clean-Scuff-Marks

Good evening, savvy savers! For this weeks Housewifes Hack Series Post, I wanted to share with you a quick, go-to cleaning secret in my home. The way I remove scuff marks off of light colored leather shoes, is with the inside of banana peels! Just rub the inside of the peels on scuff marks, let sit for two minutes, rub in, and then wipe away any residue! This tried-and-true method was handed down to me by my mother, and will surely come in handy as people are switching out their winter boots for Summer flats, espadrilles, and sandals!

Please note, peels can still be composted after using them to remove scuffs, as well. Here’s to natural cleaning methods!

      It’s pretty awesome! A trick my grandmother passed on to me as I was literally about about to compost a pile of banana peels after making banana pudding. Works like a charm!
