Several months ago I very nearly tossed out my favorite vase. The neck is far to narrow to get my hand down inside to scrub it thoroughly and no matter how hard I tried, I could not get out the layer of green yuck that had accumulated in a telling ring on the inside. Here is the very simple, effortless fix:

You’ll Need:
1-2 Denture Tablets (depending on the size of the vase)
Hot Water

Fill the vase to the neck with Hot water and drop in 1-2 denture tablets. Leave it overnight, rinse thoroughly. If it’s really tough, you can insert a baby bottle brush down into the bottle and give it a light scrub to loosen the grime before rinsing it off. Usually, the denture tablets are more than enough.
