Take a little time to keep your glass sparkling.
Only put cheap drinking glasses in the dishwasher. Over time glasses washed in a dishwasher get a dull white film on them that may not come off - Okay for your bargain basement tumblers, but definitely not for your priceless crystal.
Cloudy glasses can be tackled by soaking in warm (not hot) vinegar, then scrubbing, or try scrubbing with white toothpaste. If this doesn’t work, your glasses are probably scratched by the dishwasher and unsalvageable.
Wash up crystal (or any glassware you want to keep) by hand, using ordinary washing-up liquid and rinse well. Use a plastic bowl to prevent knocks against a hard sink and leave to dry bottom up on a clean tea towel or buff carefully with a lint-free cloth.
To remove wax from glass candle holders, try putting them in the freezer overnight, the next morning, just tap upside down on the counter and the wax will pop out!
