Congratulations, KittyKatt! Hurray for a great job. Also a great job of staying on top of your progress as you went along. Thanks for letting us in on the project.

lol, lucylee. By holder, do you mean the floor holders gripping them, or the handheld fluffy-duster holder?
For the dusting wand fluffies, I did purchase a completely unknown name that said it would fit (Ariver - actually I sort of felt like I was tricked somewhat because the photo seemed to show the brand name). But so far, so good on those. They do indeed fit my brand-name "wand" and go on and off it normally. I have some very low-to-the-floor furniture that the wand type can squeeze under fast without a problem, rather than needing to move furniture so much, to get even a regular swiffer broom under there. So, after using for delicate dusting, they are used for that purpose before being tossed.

This house doesn't have ceiling fans, but the fluffies on a wand really helped for those in the other house.

Yes, Harriet, the handheld wand. The two little prongs go through and tear the fluffy stuff. It’s doable, but not as good as the name brand.
