I love trying new hacks and different tricks for surviving life. There are so many things I swear I've been doing wrong my entire life, especially when there is a much easier way to do them.
I'm excited to share some of these hacks and tricks with you! You never know when you've been messing up something totally easy all along. So, let's get started, yeah?!
To be honest, even with this ninja folding technique, I'd probably still shove all my clothes into the drawers without thinking twice about it. Still, I guess it's good to know!
Use a knife to slice a bunch of cuts into the sticker and no one will be able to peel that baby off!
But, all jokes aside, this is definitely a really smart way to freeze leftovers so they are perfectly portioned and easy to reheat.
Even though I know this is how it's supposed to be done, I can never seem to do it right. I guess I'll give it another try and hope it's as satisfying as this.
I've gained quite the muscle carrying a grocery basket on my arm because I didn't have a coin to put in the cart.
I mean, those things aren't the cheapest drinks in the world. Might as well get your money's worth!
If you didn't know this, I dare you to take a look under the hood. It might scare you!
And trust me when I say I had definitely been peeling eggs wrong this whole time. Want to know more? Check out my egg hacks to see how it's done!
You can use the spring from a cheap pen to help keep those pesky cords from breaking apart.
The only time I ever actually wrap gifts is at Christmas because I love the look of them under the tree. I'll definitely be giving this Japanese technique a shot.
Those tabs are useful for more than just opening the can. You can thread your straw through the hole, too!
I hate when a self-serve checkout or vending machine won't take the only bill I've got on hand. Apparently, folding it horizontally can help!
Add a little symbol or special flourish to your signature that people wouldn't think to replicate. That's kind of smart!
Ever notice how the salad bars at grocery stores have perfectly chopped veggies? Grab a container of those for a couple of bucks to make your next omelette.
No more pulling on each cord to see which one is "lights on" and which one is "ceiling fan move."
In theory this is great, but I can never remember to bring reusable bags down to the car with me, let alone a grocery basket.
Turns out, you can slide it under the tab of a can and use it to open it without breaking a nail. Kind of makes sense now that I think about it!
Air conditioners eat up a lot of hydro, but if you clean or replace the filter you'll likely save some $$$.
The way to keep your cookies from going hard is to add a piece of bread to the container you store them in!
Apparently, if you fold raffle tickets, you'll increase your chances of winning because you've increased the surface volume. I know I'm more likely to pick a folded piece instead of a flat one!
This suggestion to use a blender to pour them into the cups perfectly is actually genius.
Although now I'm a bit worried that gym thieves everywhere are going to be checking locks for combinations written on clear tape now.
As long as you have one of these cars with a fin-thing on its rear, you can enjoy your soup without any spillage. I wouldn't suggest just hopping up on any random car to eat, though. Please reserve this hack for your own vehicles.
Why not simply fashion it into a fancy, rustic-style wine glass holder? It goes perfectly with any farmhouse decor, and it seems to work remarkably well! We love a good recycle life-hack!
Look how gorgeous these thrifted bottles look as lights. Don't just throw away your empties! Turn them into something beautiful!
And as it turns out, CD holders make great bagel containers! Look at how perfectly that glorious sandwich fits in there. It's like it was meant to be.
Sure, they're great for holding sleeping tots. But when it's time to move onto a big kid bed, their old cribs can be transformed into a super cool table!
If you do it this way, you can really save space, plus then you won't have to shove your arm inside a cardboard box every time you want a drink. This works with soda boxes too!
That way, you end up some some natural curtains that will keep the sun out while keeping your greenery happy and healthy.
Simply take the plastic lid off and place it underneath your cup. Now you won't risk the condensation making any ugly rings on your nice furniture.
So speed up the process a little by wrapping them in a damp paper towel, and then sticking them in the freezer. Your night of drinking just got a whole lot cooler, my friend!
If you want to avoid rock-solid, totally frozen ice cream that's nearly impossible to scoop, store the container in a freezer-safe plastic bag. That way, you sweet treat will be smooth and much easier to serve!
This genius way of eating cupcakes will stop you from getting frosting all over your face, and will also make it a much more evenly-distributed cupcake eating experience.
So, scribble it out instead. It makes it way harder to read, so whatever you didn't want anyone to see will go totally unseen.
Same. That's why I eat my burger like this, with my pinkies and thumbs supporting the base of the burger and keeping everything right where it should be: inside the buns!
If you use a fork, you won't accidentally drop your cookie into the milk, so no more soggy treats for you!
Kids are prone to dropping things, but these will help them keep their juice box right where they want it: in their hands!
Not only can I never seem to fold one, they also never seem to stay on my bed. Apparently, suspenders are the solution to this!
Apparently, poking the holes like this can help with air flow, making it much easier to pour. Hallelujah!
