A lint roller is an excellent tool for cleaning dust and lint from your fabric lampshades. This is a page about using a lint roller for cleaning lamp shades.
Everybody loves scratch offs but the silver shavings that come off are very messy and hard to remove from fabric. Today, that changes! Roll a lint roller over the scratched ticket and it will pick up every last bit of that mess.'
I use a lint roller to clean lamp shades and carpeted steps. The lint roller is great in between my regular vaccuming. I just roll the lint roller over the lamp shade and it works great also.
