Glass Ball Breaks, Eeeewi Smell, Can't get rid of?
You know those glass balls you get on Christmas and are so cute, with snow moving inside them? (I do not know what they are called)..
Well mine fell down and broke, and it messed up the whole place. I can’t clean up well because when I enter the room I feel like throwing up.
I tried a wet newspaper, I tried normal Kleenex, I tried bicarb. soda, and nothing works….. SUGGESTIONS?

Try a vinegar and water mixture. Vinegar neutralizes odors…=)

Remove carpet stains
You can lift out many stains from your carpet with vinegar:
Rub light carpet stains with a mixture of 2 tablespoons salt dissolved in 1/2 cup white vinegar. Let the solution dry, then vacuum.
For larger or darker stains, add 2 tablespoons borax to the mixture and use in the same way.
For tough, ground-in dirt and other stains, make a paste of 1 tablespoon vinegar with 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and rub it into the stain using a dry cloth. Let it set for two days, then vacuum.
To make spray-on spot and stain remover, fill a spray bottle with 5 parts water and 1 part vinegar. Fill a second spray bottle with 1 part nonsudsy ammonia and 5 parts water. Saturate a stain with the vinegar solution. Let it settle for a few minutes, then blot thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth. Then spray and blot using the ammonia solution. Repeat until the stain is gone. Good Luck !

I never knew those things actually smelled horrible from the inside!
You need to actually clean it up and then use something to get over the smell like baking soda.
Whatever you do, don’t use perfume coz it’s just gonna make the whole mess bigger!
Good luck
