I can’t begin to tell you how many items of kitchenware, kids’ toys, even my shoes STILL have the darn product sticker on them. I’ve never been able to figure out what would possess so many manufacturers to overlook how innately irritating it is to consumers to have to deal with the removal of these things. Especially when it’s something like a picture frame. Anyway, I”ve always had Goo Gone handy for these situations, but really, I feel like I have this chemical smell on my hands for the remainder of the day. Naturally, what you really need is an oil base to remove adhesive. But then add to it something like baking soda for a little grit, and VOILA! Bye-Bye sticky-stick!

How to Make Homemade Goo Remover
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup baking soda (add more to make a thicker paste)
