    Someone probably mentioned this already; but for the painters tape/drill bit hack: instead of completely wrapping your tape around the bit, try folding it around and creating a little “flag” by attaching the sticky side to sticky side on the ends. It will be easier to see your progress.

    For your paint cans .. you really should use a different vessel to actually paint your walls with or whatever your painting with it'll save your paint you'll be able to keep it longer because bacteria from the walls or whatever else you're painting will go back into your fresh paint but besides that, if you take a drill with a very small bit or smaller than the rim of your paint can and drill holes how about 3 in around part of the rim of your can anytime you get paint on the inside rim of your can it will just drip back into your paint can. Hope you try it thanks for your tips love them

    A juicing secret for next time: Roll your orange, lemon, lime or grapefruit on your counter before poking it with your chopstick, THEN squeeze. This method works great for all citrus fruits making juicing easy in ANY form. 💚💛💜 Happy New Year!!!

    • @johannacundiff614

      Also you can put in microwave a couple seconds or minute before rolling. Heat loosens the juice from the fruit

    If you are a renter and you want to hang some thing on the walls. Get some sewing straight pens with out the color heads. The straight pens leaves a very small hole in the wall. I even hang some heavy iron decor with the straight pens and yes the pins will hold the iron. Been doing this for years even when I was a renter and I got my deposit back. Its better than using a big nail. When using the pins angel the pin down in sheet rock. Avoid the suds at all times. I love to crocket. One day I thought why not crochet around my hangers. For you crocheters start out with a chain leave a long tail on both ends start to finished. Make you chain longer than your hanger that way you can bunch it up when your finished. Bunching is better but you don't need a lot of it. After the chain you can single or double crochet in the chain. Make sure the crochet can wrap around the hanger before finishing your project. After that get a crochet needle whip your chain down around your hanger. When you're finished tie off and leave another long tail so you can tie your master piece to the bottom of the hook. The tails can be in a knot or knot and bow then straighten you work out. The bunching helps with the sweater shoulders. If you have tank tops with the thin straps they will go on and they don't slip off easy. These hangers are great for yours or and your husband's slacks. Happy nailing art work with straight pens and crocheting your hangers. :) :) :)

    I LOVE hack videos! TY for sharing all of these. Some I already use, but others I wouldn't have thought of myself. I didn't know about the orange peeling trick. Thanks for that because I have two oranges I've been meaning to eat, but hate getting my hands all sticky. And I'm definitely making some Quesadillas for lunch today! TY for that hack as well.
    Here are a few ideas that I use:
    *When vacuuming under the washer/dryer, refrigerator, etc., spray the paper towel tube with a light mist of spray adhesive first. It will pull out way more lint, dust, and even small items that may be lurking under the appliance.
    *If looking for a small hard to see item (like an earring or contact) that you may have dropped, put a piece of panty hose or a sock over the hose of the vacuum and hold it in place. Then run the hose around the area that the item was dropped. It will get sucked up to the pantyhose or sock, but not sucked into the vacuum itself.
    *To clean ridges in window sills or door thresholds, etc, I use an old toothbrush or baby bottle brush and a paper towel dampened with Awesome Cleaner (from DT) or a Clorox wipe.
    *I use scotch tape that I cut with a nail clipper as my guide for a French Manicure. But instead of using nail polish, I use a paint maker. lol. Of course I put a top coat of clear nail polish, but whatever gets on my skin just washes right off. Plus, I don't have to maneuver a small nail polish brush AND I can use any color I want!
    *I've also used permanent vinyl that I cut with my Silhouette to fit my whole fingernail. It comes in handy when you need a quick color manicure.
    One more thing- you can write a note in lemon juice using a paint brush, and to make the writing show up, just heat it up with something (like a blow dryer). When it cools, the writing will disappear again.
    Sorry for the novel long comment. I just wanted to share these with you in hopes they may be a help to you in the future.
    I don't normally share videos, but this one is worth it. Have a happy and blessed Easter!

    • @thepurplepixie8886
      @thepurplepixie8886 3 года назад +5

      I sometimes use my wood burning tool with the tip that looks like the end of a blade. And if I have to cut the plastic with scissors, I place a piece of parchment paper over the jagged edge and apply an iron at low heat. It melts the plastic (of course) and you can keep melting it down until the edges are flush.
