As much as I love a good lifehack, what's the point if you don't already have the stuff to try it out on hand? That's what I love about this list, most people already have this stuff at home!
And if you don't, it might actually be worth it to pick some of this stuff up. I don't think you'll regret it if you do!
Next time you get something that comes in a round mailer, keep it! You can use them to store bags for groceries and other necessities. Throw on a label and you're golden.
Add a zip tie through the loop of your cleaning device and you can hook that baby anywhere! Such a simple and easy solution for saving space in your home.
But zip ties can actually come in handy for this! If you make a loop of them, you can use it to grab all that nasty hair. Check out Instructables for full details on how it's done.
There is so much unused vertical space in the fridge, why not try to utilize it to its fullest? Add a cheap dollar store drawer set to your fridge like Pinning With Purpose did.
Use labels or stickers to mark which switch is for what. I like the idea of a star for the one that you use most often!
And who else is just not good at doing their own nails? Try this hack to see if it helps!
I've seen similar hacks using garbage bags to move multiple items at once, but this one takes it to the next level!
The Spruce suggests using mayonnaise to get rid of them! Basically, you leave the mayo on for an hour or even overnight and then the stain will be gone.
No one really uses CDs or DVDs that much anymore, so it might be worth a shot to see how it fares. Then you can use them for cool DIYs!
If you're worried about their safety, try adding two pool noodles to either side of the bed. Now they'll have a guard against falling!
Start by cutting a paper towel roll in half, or so that it fits in one of those store-bought cleaning wipe containers.
Homemade Interest suggests a combo of:
- 1/2 cup vinegar mixed with 1 cup water
- 1 teaspoon liquid dish soap
- 5-10 drops essential oil (optional)
If you have one on hand but don't have a dish rack, you can totally use it to dry your dishes!
The Muddy Princess wrapped them in fun paper, but you could keep them plain. Store papers, plastic containers, or other things in these!
It is now a queso warmer. Say goodbye to lukewarm crusty queso dip!
It makes for a fantastic lidded glass that will keep bees away from your poolside drinks in the summer.
It's a wild inception sort of deal.
But yeah. Doing something like this will ensure your lids and plastic containers will stay put.
Just attach some tinsel or make a wooden wall hanging in the shape of a Christmas tree.
It's so cute too!
I need to start doing this. I end up dropping everything on the ground!
Or any freezer, really. More space for ice cream!
And then you have to get another bag for the garbage bag and clean up the mess and it's a whole fiasco!
Using a hook upside down will ensure the bag stays put and that your garbage stays in the garbage bag.
Probably not! That's why Gail is here to save the day.
Cleaning the fridge might be my top three chores I hate doing, so this is a lifesaver.
Although, then I have to clean the placemats...but that's neither here nor there.
If you want to be sure that a shelf you are hanging is straight, use a measuring cup! If the water lines up with the line, it's roughly level.
Put a couple of wax melts in a salt or pepper shaker. They'll look adorable and it'll smell amazing, too.
