MAKiNG LiFE EASiER

I was looking for some craft/diy ideas, and I ran across this page.. The link is http://www.thedailybuzz.com.au/2011/11/25-clever-ideas_household-tips_storage-ideas/ ....but I think I'll keep up with it better here.  So this is a list of some things to make life easier :)



1. Hull strawberries using a straw... So much easier, less mess, && you don't waste so much goodness.

2. Rub walnuts over small wood scratches.  Looks like it never existed!

3. Remove crayon marks from TV screens, computers, & walls with WD-40.

4. Keep apples from browning in lunches by slicing them, put them back together, && wrap a rubberband around sliced apples. 



5. Store bed linens in their matching pillowcases.  No more searching for matching sets :)

6. Place your music player (ex. iPhone/Pad) in a bowl.  The concave shape gives you an amplified sound!

7. Re-use a wet-wipes container for plastic bag storage.

8. Take baby powder to the beach with you!  Sand falls right off when you put it on.

9. Attach a velco strip to the wall for soft toys/lightweight stuffed animals.

10. Use wire to make a space on the ceiling to store things like wrapping paper.

11. Find tiny items like jewelry by putting pantyhose over your vacuum tube.

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

13. How to fold a fitted sheet:

14. Use magnetic strips in bathrooms to hold bobby pins, tweezers, etc.

15. Store shoes in shower caps to keep dirty soles from you clothes when on vacation. Hotels usually have them!

16. Muffin pans can also be craft caddies!

17. Bread tags can be used to label different wires & cords. No more searching for the right appliance cord!

18. Bake cakes directly into ice cream cones. Less mess & cute :)

19. Microwave your own popcorn into a plain brown paper bag. Healthier.

20. Add a tension rod under your sink to hold spray bottles for more space!

21. Heart shaped boiled eggs::

22. Turn muffin tin upside-down & bake cookies on top. Cookie bowls for ice cream!

23. Freeze aloe vera in ice trays for soothing sunburn relief.

24. Use gutters for gardening :)

25. Egg cartons work for Christmas decoration storing.


   
  

1st Class Flyer

Sadie is officially in AL now :)  We woke up & left at 5:15 this morning. Caine was mad, as expected.  They had to wait about 30 min. to leave to Denver.  Then she flew first class to AL.  She was such a big girl.  Daddy said everyone told her she did so well.....especially since there was a crying baby to compare her too haha. Sade got to eat at MILOS!! unfair.

Sadie flying to AL from denver :) Could she get any cuter??
