Hacks, in all forms, are something I can absolutely appreciate. When we come across a helpful piece of information or knowledge that relates to something we make frequent use of in our lives is one thing, but to unveil a more efficient or time-conscious method is another, and I haven’t met anyone who doesn’t enjoy a helpful hack.
I’ve shared different hacks here on my blog in the past, and the following ones relate to life in a general sense – by that, I mean they apply to just about anyone, regardless of background or profession. This information comes from familyhandyman.com.
“Pasta lighter: We’re sure you’re stocking up on sweet smelling candles to make your home extra cozy for the colder months. But, if your candles are burning too low to reach the wick, there’s no reason to go without your favorite scent. Instead of burning your fingers, light a piece of uncooked spaghetti. It’ll reach into those deep candles and burn long enough to light the candles on grandpa’s birthday cake!
“Remove highlighter stains: Ever wish you could remove highlighter marks from a book? Lemon juice fades highlighter enough to make it virtually undetectable. Cut a lemon in half and get some juice on a cotton swab. Run the swab over the highlighted text and watch the color fade.
“Puppy slow feeder: My puppy was eating his food too fast, resulting in him vomiting it back up. Instead of buying a slow-feed bowl, I drilled holes into a 12 in. length of 2 in. PVC pipe and capped the ends. I fill the tube with puppy food, and he has to roll it around to get the food to fall out of the holes. My puppy gets all the food he needs without the mess that comes from eating too fast. Be sure the holes are large enough for the food to come out! – Charlie May” the web page explains.
There are plenty of more hacks where these ones came from – check back tomorrow for more.
