Why Didnt I Think of That,
published by The Wimmer Companies, Inc
ISBN 1-882232-15-1,
Directions:
: Slip a pencil eraser, thimble or finger from an old glove
: on the end of the curtain rod to make it easier to push the
: rods through the seams.
:
: To dispel paint odors, add half a small bottle of vanilla
: extract to one gallon of paint. Or leave a saucer of salt in
: the room for a couple of hours.
:
: When youve finished an inside paint jar, fill an empty shoe
: polish or nail polish bottle with a little of the paint. If
: a scratch appears, you not only have matching paint, but a
: handy dauber as well.
:
: Save steps when window washing. Dry one side of the pane
: horizontally, the other side vertically. This makes it easy
: to determine where any remaining strokes are located.
:
: Save money on window cleaning liquid by making your own. In
: a one gallon jug, mix one pint rubbing alcohol, two
: tablespoons non-sudsy ammonia, one teaspoon dishwashing
: liquid. Add four drops of blue food coloring (or the color
: of your choice) and fill the jug with water.
:
: Get rid of scratches on hardwood floors by rubbing them with
: fine steel wool which has been dipped into floor wax.
:
: Clean silver by rubbing with damp baking soda on a soft
: cloth.
:
: Use toothpaste for cleaning copper...or try dipping used
: lemon rinds in salt, then scrubbing your copper bottom pans.
:
: Toss lemon rinds into the garbage disposal for a fresh,
: clean scent.
:
: Rid bathroom and shower stalls of mildew with a weekly
: spraying of liquid bleach.
:
: Dingy, moldy shower curtains will look like new after an
: occasional soaking in 1/2 cup liquid bleach and 1/4 cup
: detergent. Soak curtains for 20 minutes in washing machine
: or bathtub. Rinse, then drip dry.
