  1. How to Put on a Bracelet by Yourself
    If you have trouble putting on a bracelet by yourself, all you need is a paperclip. Open it up and use it as a closure aid, as you can see in the video here. This simple trick will save you time and frustration, especially when you’re in a hurry and don’t have someone around to help.
  2. Prevent Pasta Water from Boiling Over
    Do you sometimes have your pasta water boil over? Place a wooden spoon across the pot. It acts like a barrier and prevents the water from rising above the pot and spilling over. This is a simple yet effective way to keep your stovetop clean and avoid the mess.
  3. Organize Your Cords with Toilet Paper Rolls
    Never throw away empty toilet paper rolls. You can use them to sort your cords, label them, and place them in a drawer or box. This will help you stay organized, and you’ll always be able to find a cord quickly when you need one. It’s a great way to recycle and keep your space tidy.
  4. Unstick a Stuck Zipper
    Is your zipper stuck? Then take a bar of soap and rub it on the zipper. Remove the soap residue with your fingers, and the zipper will slide open and closed smoothly. This hack can save your favorite jacket or bag from being unusable.
  5. Keep Straws in Place with a Can Tab
    The tab on a soda can is not just for opening it. You can also use it to secure a straw in the can. This way, the straw won’t come out by itself, and insects won’t get into your drink as easily. It’s a clever way to enjoy your soda outdoors without hassle.
  6. Hidden Air Freshener with Panty Liners
    Take a panty liner and cut it into two or more pieces. Now, put a few drops of an essential oil on them, then stick them somewhere out of sight. This way, you have a hidden source of fragrance that can always provide a pleasant fresh scent. It’s a discreet and effective way to keep your space smelling nice.
  7. Test if a Battery is Dead or Alive
    Not sure which battery is full and which is empty? Drop the batteries from a height of about 15 cm onto a table. If the battery barely bounces and falls, it is still full. If it bounces after the impact, it is dead. This quick test can save you from the frustration of using dead batteries.
