I was looking threw a book the other day about hints for the homemaker and realize how many books or sites there is already about things that came make your life easier.
So i thought let me put a few on here which I was not aware of. 1. To prevent fly marks on lampshades and bulbs, rub with a cloth soaked in castor oil. 2. Clean grubby marks from wallpaper with a piece of white bread. 3. A creaking door can be silenced by rubbing the offending hinges well with a lead pencil. 4. Smear aftershave on your legs, arms and face when camping and it will chase the mosquitoes away. 5. To tie parcels tightly, wet the string before using; it will shrink when it dries. 6. Mark a torch with a few stripes of luminous paint or tape then it is easily identified when the lights fail. 7. Toothpaste and laundry blue will relieve a bee sting once the sting has been removed. 8. To remove warts, rub regularly with castor oil. 9. To keep grass out of your flower beds, dig a small trench round the bed and put some coarse salt in it. 10. An easy way to clean your hands after gardening is to add a teaspoon of sugar to soapy water, Ingrained soil will soon disappear. This is only but a few, until next time. Stay blessed. |
