Dusted off the old tower fan. / myLot

Last year, George and I bought two mini tower fans. We put them on smart plugs, and used them to help cool the house while we were gone. Today, George asked me to turn on the one in the living room. Unlike the tall fan we had in here before, this fan does just enough. Although, when I turn it off later, I'll have to rub it down. It's collected dust after months of non-use.

It's amazing how our ceiling fan blades collect dust.

Surprsingly, as far as I know I've yet to have that problem with ours. In one of our apartments, we had a dust ring.

I have a similar one for our bedroom. I sewed a cover for the months it's not in use.

We love ours. We have one in our bedroom, too.

@kaylachan It is just enough to keep the room cool during summer.

Things do tend to collect dust. I am forever dusting the TV and stand.

It's funny, the things I'd expect to collect dust, aren't, and the things I don't are.

So far I haven't had to turn on the AC. I just use my ceiling fan. Have a good day.

I have a fan too, but it's useless. Those fan blades have a lot of dust. I keep my fan on the balcony and it's sunny there. I don't think that it should stay in the sun.

If only we could find a natural way to get rid of dust!! So annoying! You clean it up and it comes back in a matter of days!!
