DIY Non-Toxic Leather Shoe Polish

Or "That Crazy Thing I Did with a Banana Cuza BrightNest."

Dusty shoes meet banana.

Ready for a simple, eco-friendly method for polishing leather will knock your socks off?

1. Eat a banana. (Yay potassium!)
2. Rub the inside of the peel on your shoes, couch, wallet, or other leather item.
3. Buff with a cloth. Be sure to wipe all banana crud off so you don't attract flies or smell like someone who cleans her possessions with fruit.

All polished up! Now all I need is for my feet to get some sun. LOL!

This tip comes from BrightNest. I'll be sharing my review of the app and website tomorrow. Oh, and if you like my leggings, they're by PVD-based artist Muffy Brandt; get your own on Etsy.
