Yeah, those... I hang onto the old one when a new one comes in because that handy ridge around the edge makes it a great way to use the little container to hold paint without the paint dripping down the outside onto my hands or the table I set it down on. Great for kids projects and little momma touch ups around the house (mainly because of those little kids...).Alissahttp://www.achallphoto.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32351654.post-10610119745234495692010-05-09T19:55:14.372-07:002010-05-09T19:55:14.372-07:00I do/use all of your tips except for washing the l...I do/use all of your tips except for washing the laundry cap because I use powder.

Another thing about the lint filter from the dryer - it's good to wash it with Dawn once every couple of months, all those tiny holes get plugged up with lint and softener and even if we can't see the stuff, it makes the dryer less efficient. <br />Also - the razor thing - you are right your razor DOES last longer. Clark Howard on CNN has an entire post dedicated to preserving your razors - he can use one disposable for 5 months! whew - 2 razors a year??? awesome!Magimomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00158472086993540135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32351654.post-77036926897461537512010-05-02T11:40:19.643-07:002010-05-02T11:40:19.643-07:00this isn't a cleaning tip but is great for pro...this isn't a cleaning tip but is great for protecting you against insect bites. rub yourself with dryer sheets you've used...much better for you than deet and works great. i was told about this by a man who runs a business getting rid of bugs in houses. and skin so soft is also great for warding off mosquitoes.dianeswords.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256472625475096278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32351654.post-11153289489564429152010-05-02T10:48:04.306-07:002010-05-02T10:48:04.306-07:00I love the Lysol Kitchen antibacterial cleaner spr...I love the Lysol Kitchen antibacterial cleaner spray.

Maybe I should ask him? lol. <br /><br />When it's getting cold, but not cold enough to turn the heat up on the thermostat, I bake something. It warms up our kitchen/dining room/ living room ares, and we get to eat gooey cookies. <br /><br />When I do the laundry though (in all seriousness) I just rinse the cap in the running water of the washing machine. I have a feeling i might forget it is in there, and then I would dry it. lol.Jessica - One Shiny Starhttp://oneshinystar.reed2009.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32351654.post-82220101899262690992010-05-01T07:49:38.321-07:002010-05-01T07:49:38.321-07:00well hello, lacie! happy sits saturday sharefest! ...well hello, lacie! happy sits saturday sharefest! i keep coming across your blog again and again. and it's always a delight, of course. ok, my favorite "duh" tip is cold cream. it's like $5 for a huge jar, and it is the best makeup remover in the world. they have one for oily and one for dry skin, and this is how i use it at night: wash hands, slather a liberal amount of cold cream on my face, and rub it in until it's all warm and oily. then i run a washcloth under hot water, wring the water out, and wipe all the cold cream off with the warm towel. my face always feels great after, i don't even need moisturizer. i've heard coconut oil and other natural oils work in the same way.alexishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03253874481592439790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32351654.post-83732717716728273492010-04-29T13:55:50.092-07:002010-04-29T13:55:50.092-07:00Good tips and cute post!
