Okay I know I recently did a similar post but sometimes you just have tips you have to share!!
My mother in law recently taught me that if you have something really baked on a pan (especially a crock pot) you can let it soak overnight with a dryer sheet in the water. And guess what it comes off like magic!!
I also heard a long time ago that if you have a stubborn zipper all you have to do is rub pencil over the zipper and it will fix it right up. Well I finally had a chance to test out this theory on a new pair of jeans and yep you guess it the trick worked like a charm.
Do you have any favorite tips you want to share?
I never knew this!!! Great tips! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have any cool tips like that, but I'll keep these tips in mind! =]
ReplyDeleteLoved your previous tip on washing the laundry detergent cap in with the clothes! I have also heard the tip about wiping you razor blades dry after use due to rusting/dulling of the blade.
ReplyDeleteI have some beauty tips... I have always heard not to use the same shampoo/conditioner when you run out but instead swap out your two favs... this will help with build up. I have always done this b/c I have to wash my hair pretty much everyday.
I have also heard not to wash out your shampoo all the way and then apply conditioner as this will help remove all the conditioner and not leave any residue.
One I am trying out right now is a weekly clay mask.
Wow, I will keep the dryer sheet tip in mind!
ReplyDeleteI love these helpful tips. I'm not sure if this is a tip or not but I hate the smell of bacon in my house so I now plug my electric griddle in outside on my back patio and cook up a ton of it all at once and then freeze it in a ziploc bag. Then when someone wants bacon for breakfast or I need it for a recipe I just pop a couple of pieces in the microwave. And in about 30 seconds we have hot, smell-free bacon.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of that pencil trick!!! That is soo cool!
ReplyDeleteI have a disgusting pot soaking in my sink right now, I am totally going to throw a fabric softner sheet in it! Thanks for the awesome tip. I just wanted to let you know I've recently updated my blog and added your blog button to it, I would love it if you would do the same with mine! I also have a giveaway going on right now if you're interested.
ReplyDeleteThanks a bunch!

Interesting! I don't really have any tips. Just spit. Spit works for some stuff.
ReplyDeleteSeriously! Seriously? The dryer sheet? Okay, I'll test you on this one :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't ever heard that about dryer sheets! Brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of the pencil thing. Where on the zipper do you rub the pencil?
ReplyDeleteOMG! Thanks for those tips! I definitely have to try the dryer sheet one!!! I know I say it every time I leave a comment but I seriously ADORE your blog!
ReplyDeleteGreat tips Lacie, I'll have to try the dryer sheet one. I've never heard of it.
ReplyDeleteAlways just good stuff when I come to visit your blog.
Hugs,
Wendy
ps - love the flowers your sister made, they're gorgeous!!!
I LoVE handy dandy tips!! I really need to start a book so I can store them properly though. I hate to admit it, but I always have crusty baking pans, ugh... dryer sheets ~ here I come!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Really? Wow, I'll definitely keep these in mind. Thanks so much for the tips. My suitcase zipper frustrates me to no end when it gets stuck, but I'll keep a pencil nearby when I travel. Or I could just buy new luggage, but this sounds way cheaper :p
ReplyDeleteI love when you do these posts! although, I don't know If we have dryer sheets here in Aust (correct me if I'm wrong Aussies!) either that or I'm just not domesticated enough to know about them!
