Helpful Things-Who Knew?? (star if you like it)?

%26gt;=======================================...

%26gt;

%26gt;

%26gt;Sealed envelope -

%26gt;

%26gt;Put in the freezer for a few hours,

%26gt;

%26gt;then slide a knife under the flap.

%26gt;

%26gt;The envelope can then be resealed.

%26gt;

%26gt;(hmmmmmm.).

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;

%26gt;Use Empty toilet paper roll

%26gt;

%26gt;to store appliance cords.

%26gt;

%26gt;It keeps them neat

%26gt;

%26gt;and you can write on the roll

%26gt; what appliance it belongs to.

%26gt; ========================================...

%26gt;For icy door steps in freezing temperatures:

%26gt;

%26gt;get warm water and put Dawn dishwashing liquid in it.

%26gt;

%26gt;Pour it all over the steps.

%26gt;

%26gt;They won't refreeze.(wish I had known this for the last 40 years)

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Crayon marks on walls?

%26gt;

%26gt;This worked wonderfully!

%26gt;

%26gt;A damp rag, dipped in baking soda.

%26gt;

%26gt;Comes off with little effort,

%26gt;

%26gt;(elbow grease that is!).

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Permanent marker on appliances/counter tops

%26gt;

%26gt;(like store receipt BLUE)...

%26gt;

%26gt;Rubbing alcohol on paper towel.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Whenever I purchase a box of SOS Pads,

%26gt;

%26gt;I immediately take a pair of scissors

%26gt;

%26gt;and cut each pad into halves.

%26gt;

%26gt;After years of having to throw away rusted

%26gt;

%26gt;and unused and smelly pads,

%26gt;

%26gt;I finally decided that this would be much more economical.

%26gt;

%26gt;And now a box of SOS pads last me indefinitely!

%26gt;

%26gt;In fact,

%26gt;

%26gt;I have noticed that the scissors get sharpened this way!

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Blood stains on clothes?

%26gt;

%26gt;Not to worry!

%26gt;

%26gt;Just pour a little hydrogen peroxide

%26gt;

%26gt;on a cloth and proceed to wipe off every drop of blood.

%26gt;

%26gt;Works every time!

%26gt;

%26gt;Now, where to put the body?

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Use vertical strokes when washing windows outside

%26gt;

%26gt;and horizontal for inside windows.

%26gt;

%26gt;This way you can tell which side has the streaks.

%26gt;

%26gt;Straight vinegar will get outside windows really clean.

%26gt;

%26gt;Don't wash windows on a sunny day.

%26gt;

%26gt;They will dry too quickly and will probably streak.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Spray a bit of perfume on the light bulb

%26gt;

%26gt;in any room to create a lovely light scent

%26gt;

%26gt;in each room when the light is turned on.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Place fabric softener sheets in dresser drawers

%26gt;

%26gt;and your clothes will smell freshly washed for weeks to come. You can

also do this with towels and linen.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Candles will last a lot longer if placed in the freezer

%26gt;

%26gt;for at least 3 hours prior to burning.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;To clean artificial flowers,

%26gt;

%26gt;pour some salt into a paper bag and add the flowers.

%26gt;

%26gt;Shake vigorously as the salt will absorb all the dust and dirt

%26gt;

%26gt;and leave your artificial flowers looking like new!

%26gt;

%26gt;Works like a charm!

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;To easily remove burnt on food from your skillet,

%26gt;

%26gt;simply add a drop or two of dish soap

%26gt;

%26gt;and enough water to cover bottom of pan,

%26gt;

%26gt;and bring to a boil on stovetop.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Spray your TUPPERWARE with nonstick cooking spray

%26gt;

%26gt;before pouring in tomato based sauces

%26gt;

%26gt;and there won't be any stains.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;

%26gt;Wrap celery in aluminum foil

%26gt;

%26gt;when putting in the refrigerator

%26gt;

%26gt;and it will keep for weeks.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;When boiling corn on the cob,

%26gt;

%26gt;add a pinch of sugar

%26gt;

%26gt;to help bring out the corn's natural sweetness.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Cure for headaches:

%26gt;

%26gt;Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead.

%26gt;

%26gt;The throbbing will go away.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Don't throw out all that leftover wine:

%26gt;

%26gt;Freeze into ice cubes for future use

%26gt;

%26gt;in casseroles and sauces.

%26gt;

%26gt;Left over wine?

%26gt;

%26gt;What's that? (lol)

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;To get rid of itch from mosquito bites,

%26gt;

%26gt;try applying soap on the area

%26gt;

%26gt;And you will experience instant relief.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Ants, ants, ants everywhere ....

%26gt;

%26gt;Well, they are said to never cross a chalk line.

%26gt;

%26gt;So get your chalk out and draw a line on the floor

%26gt;

%26gt;or wherever ants tend to march.

%26gt;

%26gt;See for yourself.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Use air-freshener to clean mirrors.

%26gt;

%26gt;It does a good job and better still,

%26gt;

%26gt;leaves a lovely smell to the shine.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;When you get a splinter,

%26gt;

%26gt;reach for the scotch tape

%26gt;

%26gt;before resorting to tweezers or a needle.

%26gt;

%26gt;Simply put the scotch tape over the splinter,

%26gt;

%26gt;then pull it off.

%26gt;

%26gt;Scotch tape removes most splinters

%26gt;

%26gt;painlessly and easily.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer.

%26gt;

%26gt;Clean a toilet.

%26gt;

%26gt;Drop in two Alka Seltzer tablets,

%26gt;

%26gt;wait twenty minutes, brush and flush.

%26gt;

========================================...

%26gt;Clean a vase.

%26gt;

%26gt;To remove a stain from the bottom

%26gt;

%26gt;of a glass vase or cruet,

%26gt;

%26gt;fill with water and drop in two Alka Seltzer tablets.

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Polish jewelry.

%26gt;

%26gt;Drop two Alka Seltzer tablets into a glass of water

%26gt;

%26gt;and immerse the jewelry for two minutes.

%26gt;

%26gt;(or longer, if necessary).

%26gt;=====================================...

%26gt;Unclog a drain.

%26gt;

%26gt;Clear the sink drain by dropping

%26gt;

%26gt;three Alka Seltzer Tablets down the drain

%26gt;

%26gt;followed by a cup of Heinz White Vinegar.
