Household Tips, Tricks, and Techniques



 
 




  • For icy door steps in freezing temperatures: get warm water and put Dawn dishwashing liquid in it. Pour it all over the steps. They won't refreeze.


  • Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.


  • Crayon marks on walls? This worked wonderfully! A damp rag, dipped in baking soda. Comes off with little effort (elbow grease that is!).


  • Flies or bees bothering you? Spray them with hairspray and they will take a quick dive.


  • Permanent marker on appliances/counter tops (like store receipt BLUE!) rubbing alcohol on paper towel.


  • Whenever I purchase a box of S.O.S Pads, I immediately take a pair of scissors and cut each pad into halves. After years of having to throw away rusted and unused and smelly pads, I finally decided that this would be much more economical. And now a box of S.O.S pads last me indefinitely! In fact, I have noticed that the scissors get sharpened this way!


  • Blood stains on clothes? Not to worry! Just pour a little hydrogen peroxide on a cloth and proceed to wipe off every drop of blood. Works every time!


  • Sealed envelope - Put in the freezer for a few hours, then slide a knife under the flap. The envelope can then be resealed. (hmmmmmm!)
