Swiffer Duster Refill Pads
I saw this on Pinterest the other day and thought I can make these! They are totally cute fleece refills for the Swiffer Duster. They can be reused over and over because fleece can be washed when they are to dusty to use.
Mine aren’t quiet as cute or perfect as the ones selling on Etsy but that’s what gives them personality and they sure are handy. Now you too can make them at home. Here are the easy directions I came up with.
Here’s what you need:
Anti pill fleece, any color, at least 1/4 yard
sewing machine or you could hand stitch these too
sharp scissors
Swiffer Duster handle
old CD
straightedge ruler
1 piece cardstock 8-1/2″ x 11
First I got a piece of 8-1/2″ x 11″ and made my template by using an old CD to make the half circle at the top and used a ruler to draw straight lines for the sides. The template measures 7-1/4″ (center) tip to end, 4-3/4″ wide with the center slots being 4-1/2″ high and 3/4″ each (x2) wide.
Taking the top two pieces; keeping them together, sew together 1/4″ from straight edge bottom.
Do this to the next two pieces also so that you have two pieces each.
then turn and come back down. Now sew up the middle starting 1″ up from the end to create two holes for the handle to slide into.
Oh, what a great idea! I try not to spend *too* much time on Pinterest… I figure all the good bloggers will show off all the good stuff anyway. ;)Adrianne<a href="http://www.happyhourprojects.com>Happy Hour Projects</a>
