You’re about to get another sneak peak at our entryway (we already showed you the hat and shoe rack we put there). One of the great features of our house is it’s openness, which includes a large entry area open to the staircase and second floor. It’s very nice, but when cobwebs form in the certain corners, it’s very difficult to get to them because they are so high up.
A brief digression: A few weeks ago, I’m sitting in the family room watching tv, and I hear this whirring noise coming from the front of the house. Upon investigating, I discover Steve flying his small, foam RC helicopter in the entryway! He took it up from the floor past the pendant light, over the banister to the upstairs hall, and into our bedroom. This has become a not infrequent occurrence.
Do you see where I am going with this? This weekend, he was flying the helicopter and decided to take it right up into the corner to clear out the cobwebs. Those rotor blades wrapped the web right up. Of course, once that happened, the chopper dropped like a rock, but at least the corner is clean now.

Clever, huh? Have you discovered any unique ways to make cleaning a game a-la Mary Poppins?

Too funny! I also have cobwebs in really high corners… but sadly, I don’t own a remote helicopter ;).
