How To Make Broom Cover.

Many hOusekeepers know the advan.

many know the advantages Of broom
cover with ruffles. A cover OF this
kind not only does not wear out as
quickly as one without 1t, but it is
more useful in reaching into the cor.
hers when used for busting walls and
hardwood floors. 1t will also clear out
the dust behind the radiators and 9th.

one without ruffle.
