Cool Drinks with Toilet Paper
Unexpected guests? No ice in the freezer? No problem! You can quickly chill drinks using toilet paper. Simply wrap a few layers of toilet paper around the can or bottle, dampen it with water, and place it in the freezer. In just 10-15 minutes, your drink will be as cold as if it had been in the fridge for hours.
Unclog Your Shower Head with Vinegar
Over time, your shower head can become clogged with mineral deposits and debris, resulting in reduced water flow. To fix this, pour white vinegar into a plastic bag and secure it over the shower head so that the shower head is submerged in the vinegar. Let it soak for 30 minutes. If there is a significant buildup, you may need to soak it for longer. Vinegar is a natural disinfectant and will help break down any mineral deposits.
After soaking, remove the shower head from the bag and apply a small amount of toothpaste to a toothbrush. Scrub the shower head with the toothbrush, as toothpaste is mildly abrasive and will help remove any remaining debris. Reattach the shower head and test the water flow. You should notice an improvement in both water pressure and flow.
For a deeper clean, soak the shower head in a mixture of warm water and white vinegar for another 30 minutes. During this time, you can also swish the shower head around in the mixture to help dislodge any stubborn buildup. Finally, use a soft cloth to wipe down the shower head, and run the water to flush out any remaining debris.
Floor Cleaning with Shampoo and Salt
Did you know that a mixture of shampoo and salt can be used to clean and add shine to your floors? Simply add a small amount of shampoo and salt to a bucket of warm water and mix well. This solution is especially effective for wooden floors, as it adds shine, and for tiled floors, as it helps keep them clean for longer. You can also use this mixture to clean wooden furniture.
Unclog Your Sink with a Plastic Bottle
A simple way to unclog your sink without using chemicals is to use a plastic bottle. First, run the tap to fill the sink about one-third to half full. Then, take an empty plastic bottle and fill it halfway with water. Quickly invert the bottle and place it over the drain, ensuring that the water in the bottle flows directly into the drain. The pressure created by the water will help dislodge any food or debris that is causing the clog.
Repeat this process a few times, and you should notice the sink draining more freely as the clog is cleared.
Remove Towel Odors with Vinegar and Baking Soda
Over time, towels can develop a musty smell and turn yellow, especially during humid weather. To freshen them up, wash them in the washing machine with hot water and add a cup of white vinegar. Run the machine through a complete cycle. Then, run another cycle with hot water and add half a cup of baking soda. Finally, hang the towels out to dry in the sun.
Nail Clipper as a Mosquito Coil Holder
During the summer months, mosquito coils are a must-have. If the holder that comes with the coils breaks or is lost, you can use a nail clipper as a replacement. Simply separate the two halves of the clipper, stand the file upright, and secure the mosquito coil at the top. Since the clipper is made of stainless steel, you don’t have to worry about it catching fire. Plus, if the coil breaks, you can use the clipper to fix it by joining the two halves and securing the broken end of the coil in the middle.
Clean Foggy Glasses
If you wear glasses, you know the frustration of foggy lenses. To keep your glasses clear, start by rinsing them under warm water. Then, apply a small amount of dish soap to both sides of the lenses and gently rub it around the lenses and frames. Rinse the soap off under running water, and finally, dry your glasses with a soft, clean cloth or towel.
Avoid using any cleaning products other than dish soap or lens cleaner, as products like acetone or alcohol can damage the lens coating.
