Living alone has its perks since you have the place all to yourself, but it also has its downsides, such as having to clean on your own or do an activity that requires more than one hand.
This woman who had been struggling to put on her own bracelet figured out a hack for doing it, and people are calling her a genius.
Living alone has its perks
While living on your own has many perks, like finding things exactly where you last put them and scheduling your day exactly how you want it instead of around anyone else’s day, it can still be difficult.
A downside to living alone
One downside to living alone is having to handle certain tedious tasks alone, like reaching the top shelf or putting on your own bracelet.
This will have you looking for creative solutions to figure out how to do those tasks yourself.
A woman figured out how to put on her own bracelet
One example of these solo living solutions is a woman’s hack on how to put on your own bracelet which left many praising her for how nifty the idea was.
The hack came from user @jadelehuray on TikTok, who posted a video of herself doing the trick.
She posted it amongst a trend
The TikTok was posted under a viral sound that says, “Show me the life hack that you randomly saw one day that is now an unconscious standard practice in your life.”
People shared all sorts of hacks
Under the viral TikTok sound, people shared all sorts of life hacks that made their lives that little bit easier and Jade Le-Huray was no exception.
She showed her followers a method she usually uses to close the tricky bracelet clasp herself.
The hack is genius
In the video, she captioned, “Single life made [me] think of this one,” the make-up artist and life coach clasped her own bracelet with a hairpin.
It is such a smart move that you wonder why none of us had thought of it before!
Start by hooking the pin in the bracelet
To execute this hack, the make-up artist started by hooking the bobby pin into one of the end bracelet loops, onto which the clasp attaches.
She then held the bobby pin in her hand and looped the bracelet around her wrist.
The hairpin makes it easier to handle
With the bobby pin in her hand and the bracelet around her wrist, she can easily put the clasp through the loop, making it the right size for her wrist.
She then removed the bobby pin from the end it was attached to, et voilà!
The pin acts as an anchor
This hack works so well because the bobby pin holds the bracelet in place at the wrist, acting as an anchor so it doesn’t get flimsy and slip off your hand.
Quite the genius move, isn’t it?
Getting ready on your own isn’t a fuss anymore
With this trick, you don’t need a second hand to hold the end of the bracelet for you, the bobby pin has got it!
Usually, putting on your own jewelry is a hassle, with a flimsy bracelet escaping your grip, but no more.
People in the comments were amazed
Under the life coach’s TikTok showing this hack, people were amazed by how fast and easy she put on the light piece of jewelry.
One user said it was “pure wizardry,” while another person excitedly wrote that it was “genius.”
Users said the hack saved a lot of struggle
People were grateful for the nifty hack and thanked the user for sharing it, with one person admitting, “This is awesome. I’ve been struggling for so long.”
Another user made a lighthearted joke saying, “Now I can become single.”
You can also make your necklace a little longer
There are also a few more jewelry hacks to save you some trouble.
The first is elongating your necklace with a bracelet if you haven’t got a chain extender because sometimes a necklace is perfect for an outfit, but it’s too short.
The bracelet will add to the length
Clasp a bracelet to each end of your necklace, hooking the corresponding clasps to each end.
There’s no need to worry about the look — the elongated piece won’t show if you wear the bracelet at the back of your neck!
Use Windex to remove a stuck ring
We’ve all been there: You put on a ring that was too small for you, and now you can’t take it off. Well, you could use Windex for that!
Spray some of the stuff around the ring and your knuckles, and it should come right off.
Use baby powder to untangle chains
Now, this one is super nifty. Instead of wrestling with knotted jewelry, you could place it in a bowl with a generous sprinkle of baby powder, and it should loosen things up. It’s easy to clean, too.
These jewelry hacks make for a quick and easy getting-ready process, no more struggle!
