Clean and Sparkly Rings for $0

I like to keep my engagement and wedding rings clean and sparkly.  Unfortunately, doing things like rummaging through trash for the plastic princess doll Charlotte accidentally threw out and brushing playground mulch off the girls' clothing gets in the way of the bling.

Typically, I buy this product at the grocery store:

I am expensive and full of chemicals!

After looking for it on Amazon, which I think usually has the best prices, I found that it's almost $9.  Note to self: look at prices before adding items to the grocery cart!

I promptly looked up make-at-home ring cleaning solutions and found this very complicated recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of very hot water
• 1 Tablespoon of Dawn dish detergent

Instructions:

• Mix detergent and water in small bowl
• Add rings and leave to soak for ten minutes
• Scrub with an old toothbrush and let rings dry

So I did this today and low and behold, it works wonders.  Between Dawn, baking soda, and vinegar, I am convinced you can clean anything.

Ba-bam!
