* A Must for Dust: Use a fabric softener sheet to dust the front of the t.v.
* Sharpen Your Scissors: Cut through sand paper a few times (I've also heard tin foil, but the sound gives me the shivers!)
* No More Foggy Mirrors: Clean the bathroom mirror with canned shaving cream
*Hard Water Buildup? Pour distilled white vinegar in a plastic bag and tie the bag to the shower head or kitchen faucet so that the head is completely submerged. Soak over night.
*Clean as a Whistle Shower Curtain Liner: Wash with 1/2 cup ammonia to 1 quart water
*Stain-less Plastic Containers: Spray your plastic containers with cooking spray before filling with tomato sauce to avoid red stains
*The Price is Right: To remove sticky price tags from dishes or glasses, spray with WD-40. Your husband will be so impressed!
*Carpet Stains Be Gone: 1 Tbs. vinegar with 1 Tbs. cornstarch. Work into area with a soft cloth and let dry for 48 hours. Then vacuum it right up!
*Stainless Steel Appliances: use good old fashioned Pledge to get those finger prints off. For more details, check this out.
*Stainless Steel Utensils: Place flatware in a pan and cover with seltzer water or club soda. Let set for a few minutes then let it shine like new again!
*Freeze the Vine: Put leftover wine into ice cube trays and freeze to be used later in recipes
*Eye Know! Put an apple in with your bag of potatoes to keep them from sprouting

Eager to try out the carpet stain remedy - our current house is a rental that has carpet in the dining room.
WHY would anyone think it a good idea to have carpet in a dining room, I ask??? :)
Have a great day!
Umm, don't worry about cleaning the shower curtain liner and replacing it when your mother-in-law comes to visit?
Works for me :)
These are so fun!
Who would have thunk it? Thanks for sharing.
