Tips And Tricks For Cool Kids

So a friend of mine sent this to me and I loved it! I sooo wanted to share it with you.


Hull strawberries easily by using a straw.



Rubbing a walnut over scratches in your furniture will disguise dings and scrapes





 This one is my favorite.Overhaul your linen cupboard, store bed linen sets inside one of their own pillowcases and there will  be no more hunting through piles for a match.          




 Pump up the volume by placing your iPhone or iPod in a bowl.  The concave shape amplifies the music.


Use wire to make a space to store gift wrap rolls against the ceiling, rather than clutter up the floor.






Add this item to your beach bag.  Baby powder gets sand off your skin easily, who knew?




Find tiny lost items like earrings by putting a
stocking over the vacuum hose.



Make an instant cupcake carrier by cutting crosses into a box lid.



Forever losing your bathroom essentials?  Use magnetic strips to store bobby pins, tweezers and clippers, behind a vanity door




Store shoes inside shower caps to stop dirty soles rubbing on your clothes.  And you can find them in just about every hotel.


Bread tags make the perfect cord labels.



Bake cupcakes directly in ice-cream cones, so much more fun and easier for kids to eat.



Install a tension rod to hang your spray bottles.


Turn your muffin pan upside down, bake cookie-dough over the top and voila, you have cookie bowls for fruit or ice-cream.


Freeze Aloe Vera in ice-cube trays for soothing sunburn relief.


Very cool sunburn relief!  
There you have it bloggers! I'm sure you found something helpful among these tips!

Admit it Candace you went for the as seen on TV book of "10,000 household hints" BUT WAIT did you get the companion book of "5000 ways to get the dirt out of your garden" too? AND did you call right then and get free shipping?

Now that I've had some sleep I have to say there is something weird about how those shoes look in that hair bag.
