1. Wet Wipes
Needless to say, wet wipes are a convenient replacement for damp cloth. Use it to wipe down surfaces prone to dust, and throw it away once you're done. Another advantage of using wet wipes – it doesn't leave water spots on the surface that will dry and potentially leave permanent marks – unlike damp cloths.

2. Lint Roller

Any time you see dust, dirt or hair, simply grab your roller and roll it all away! The adhesive nature of the roller will ensure every grain of dirt, strand of hair, and smidgen of dust sticks to the roller – and is removed from the surface of your furniture.
