Ironing .
If we have burnt the woolen material, we can save it by applying a mixture of baking soda and water to the burnt material. After drying, the area is carefully brushed.
The combs.
They will clean more easily if dipped in lukewarm water with 3 tablespoons of bleach and 3 tablespoons of baking soda dissolved in it.
Two piece clothes.
It is good to wash them together. So they will bleach evenly, shrink and stretch equally.
Oak furniture.
Bring back their freshness and colors by washing them down with lukewarm beer. Then dry and simultaneously polish with a piece of linen cloth.
Labels from jars and bottles.
To be easily removed from jars, bottles and plastic boxes, it should be rubbed with baby oil.
The key to the cabinet.
If it nags, it should be cleaned with soapy water and rubbed with wax.
The mosquitoes.
You will get rid of them if you plant a few tomato stalks on the balcony.
The kitchen.
It will smell good if we roast some dried juniper berries in the oven.
The dishwasher.
The vessels in it must be sorted. The other condition to be observed is not to fill it all the way.
The moths.
In order not to attack the clothes in the wardrobe, it is enough to collect some chestnuts and put them near it.
Flies.
They will not land on the mirrors and windows of your home if you scrub the glass surfaces with vinegar.
The new shoes.
If they squeeze, before putting on shoes, they are rubbed with a cotton rag soaked in rubbing alcohol.
The scissors.
They are sharpened by cutting sandpaper with them. It is enough to make 15-20 cuts to make them sharp again.
Polishing furniture.
Instead of detergent, you can use sun protection cream. The same effect is achieved.
The cheese.
Before putting it in the refrigerator, it is good to wrap it in tin foil. In plain paper it dries.
