DIY Tricks and TIPS for all over the house

We all like to be savvy and efficient and make tasks easy, right?

Let us help you to make it easy!

The Winter holidays bring out our fancy dishes and glassware, store them with coffee filters and avoid scratches or breakage.

Easy De-icer.Fill a clean spray bottle with 1 part water and 2 parts rubbing alcohol and store it in your car during winter months.  It won't freeze! Spray it on your windshield and windows on those chilly mornings to make scraping easier.  Did you know that hand sanitizer is usually alcohol based?  Squirt it on frozen locks to allow your keys to work.

SOCKS are for more than FEET!

Place them snugly on windshield wipers with a rubber band in a pinch.  They also keep the wipers from freezing to the window at night.

Keep socks in your glove box to use as gloves in a pinch.  You can use them on your hands to wipe away foggy windows and mirrors too.

Reuse plastic grocery bags to fill pillow forms, especially for outdoors.  Pack it full, zip it shut and VOILA.  You can remove them if they get wet or simply need to be freshened.   

This works great for dog beds too!  

Use two rag rugs stitched together and fill tightly with recycled plastic bags.  You can throw this in the washer too!  HANG TO DRY.

Hope these are fun ideas to get your thoughts going for even more uses of regular old items becoming new ways to use them around the house.
