Super sad because I just split my favorite rain boots.
Is this ever you:
I read that you can just run a dryer sheet over your head to get rid of that annoying static.
I snipped these pics directly from Pinterest:
So, when I am working, I try to put my clothes out for the upcoming week. Saves lots of time and franticness in the AM. I like to include everything from shoes, to underwear to jewelry but the jewelry always presents a problem...where to put it without getting lost? Well, below seems to be the answer:
Clever idea for a nifty little shelf and a creative organizing solution!
Genius:
Here is something that I have actually tried and that actually works: if you have scratches on your wood floors, take the meat of a walnut and rub it back and forth over the scratch until it disappears, which it will pretty quickly. Then, to clean it up and make it shiny again, go over it with a dry, clean cloth and any hardwood floor cleaner like Pledge 4 in 1.
Lacing your kicks this way is supposed to give you more room in the toe box (the front of the shoe) for those who have gross bunions or just wide feet.
Brilliant! Instead of my approach which is to keep hammering holes in the wall until it looks like a peg board, just photocopy a picture of the back of the item you want to hang and then use the copy as the template of where to nail/screw or drill the holes.
Such a simple & cheap way to differentiate between your different keys:
I have a George Foreman countertop grill that, although I love, do not use very often because it is a PIA to clean. I just read that right after using the grill, unplug it and place a wet double-sheet of paper towel between the lid and the surface. The remaining heat causes the towel to steam and clean the grill! Sweet!
If you have basement or garage clutter, try using an Ikea wall-mounted wine rack for organizing gloves, extension cords, rags, whatever!
If your wood floors squeak, sweep talcum powder into the floorboards that are rubbing against each other.
To get the linty buttons on upholstered furniture clean, try using a compressed air can. Yes, the same thing you use to clean your computer keyboard.
According to Amy Matthews, a contractor on HGTV's Renovation Raiders, there is a quick way to fix your dishwasher if the dishes just don't get clean anymore: turns out the culprit is usually a clogged spray arm - the thing that rotates under the top rack. Simply remove it, run the dishwasher for ten minutes to loosen the gunk and then poke the buildup out of each hole. Still not sure why I should be taking dishwashing repair advice from a contractor but hey, who am I to judge?
