## Remove Crayon Marks: A Parent’s Guide to Clean Walls and Creative Kids
Erase your child’s crayon marks
Your little one loves to draw and will do so whenever inspiration strikes. Inevitably, your walls will bear the colorful evidence of their artistic endeavors. But fear not! You can preserve your walls’ original paint job with this simple trick. Grab an old toothbrush, add some shaving cream, and gently scrub away at those crayon marks. Once the color is gone, give the wall a final wipe-down with a clean cloth.
Toilet Bowl Cleaning
Those tricky nooks and crannies of your toilet bowl can be a real pain to clean. Traditional toilet brushes are often too big to get into those tight spaces. Here’s where your old toothbrush comes in.
Use a lighter to heat up the toothbrush handle, making it easier to bend. Then, press down on the head of the brush to create an L-shape. This new shape will allow you to get into all those hard-to-reach places, leaving your toilet bowl sparkling clean.
Tame Those Flyaway Hairs
To keep those pesky flyaway hairs in check, simply spray some hairspray onto the bristles of your old toothbrush and gently brush it through your hair.
Create Sleek Styles with Hair Gel
If you’re in a rush and need to smooth down your hair with gel, avoid sticky fingers and uneven application by using your old toothbrush instead. Spray the gel onto the bristles and then gently brush through your hair, section by section. This will give you a sleek, polished look without the mess.
Exfoliate Your Lips
One of the main reasons your lipstick may not be looking its best is due to dry, flaky lips. After brushing your teeth, spend an extra minute or two gently exfoliating your lips with your toothbrush. This will remove any dead skin and leave your lips soft, smooth, and ready for your favorite lip color.
Clean Your Bicycle Chain
When was the last time you gave your bicycle chain some TLC? Over time, grease can build up and harden, making it a struggle to pedal. Here’s a simple solution: take two old toothbrushes and tape them together, back-to-back, with the bristles just touching. Then, simply run your bicycle chain through the gap between the brushes for a quick and easy clean.
