Put a dry bath towel in the dryer with your wet clothes. They will dry quicker. I have been able to switch to 40 mins vs 60 mins on low and even my jeans are dry.
Save bread bags and put them on your kids feet when they are going out in the snow. Helps the boots go on easier and keeps their tootsies dry in the boot!

Peroxide gets blood out. A rubber band on the end of the screw driver can help get out a stripped screw Windex sprayed on too tight rings gets them off your finger 75% of the time. Aerosol hairspray removes ink from fabric Put an ice cube in a baby food jar or small Tupperware container, if it melts you know the freezer unfroze while you were out or during a power outage without having o open it o check during the outage.
I have gone forever without cleaning my shower. I started with a clean shower and spray this every time.
Daily Shower Spray INGREDIENTS 2 C White vinegar 2 T Dishwasher rinse aid 2 T Dishwashing soap 20 drops Tea Tree Oil INSTRUCTIONS 1. Mix all ingredients in a 64 oz. bottle. 2. Fill the remainder of the bottle with hot water.
It smells,so I spray it when I am leaving the bathroom, but it works.
I too am interested in the daily shower spray. But I don't want the lingering smell of vinegar. I'm guessing there's no way around that, is there?
i would think you could add a couple of drops of some other essential oil (like lavender) to make it smell nice? but also, i wonder if it would even linger. you can use vinegar as fabric softener, which works really well, but never leaves a vinegar smell. COME BACK AND TELL US IF IT SMELLS!!
Vinegar is the bomb, is my helpful hint. Use it to wash windows, take the mildew smell out of things, on the floors, rinse out cat boxes, you name it, it's incredible.
I have poured it into smelly sneakers, washed the sneakers in hot water and baking soda, and set them to dry in the sun, and omg. No more smell, at all. And very clean.
I love white vinegar. I also put in in my laundry instead of fabric softener.

It's actually the mixture of vinegar and tea tree oil. I get myself completely ready and spray as I am walking out of the bathroom. It doesn't linger long and it's worth it to not have to scrub the tub. 4 of us share one full bath. 2 filthy kids and a DH who works in sewers. I promise the smell is worth it. Plus DH doesn't use it, it only gets sprayed when I shower and it still repels and cleans.
Hold your drink in your left hand at parties. Then you can shake hands with your right
Along these lines, wear your nametag on your right shoulder so that when the person leans in to shake your hand, your name is right in front of them.
I've actually been told and do the opposite. Put your name tag on your left shoulder so that it lays flat and is easy to read when shaking hands. It also won't be dislodged by movement.
I'm going to try the shower spray! That is my most hated cleaning task.
I got one of the Rubbermaid heavy duty spray bottles from Home Depot, it puts out a great mist to cover a big area. Please report back. I hope it works well for you.
