Easy tricks that will turn those oh-no moments into I-got-this moments.
1. Broken slop? Clip it
You know that heart-breaking, annoying moment when your slop’s strap pops out?
No fear when a bread bag clip is near.
For a temporary fix, pop the clip onto the strap on the sole to secure it and keep walking.
2. Evil key ring? Grip it
Can’t get that key onto the key ring without losing at least one nail?
Get your handy staple remover out and think of the key ring as a staple.
Now you can safely add keys to the key ring.
3. Loose carpet? Velcro it
We all know how mischievous a loose rug corner can be, waiting to catch you when you least expect it.
So, stay safe and use some velcro to keep the rug in place and out of mischief.
Use the sticky back type and simply stick one side to the corner of the rug and the other side to the floor.
4. Stuck screw? Rubber it
When you need to get that screw out, but it won’t move and then it strips!
A trusty rubber band will create resistance and help the screwdriver form a tight grip on the screw.
6. Sticky mess? Ice it
Got gum on your shoes or worse, in your hair?
Put an ice cube on the gum for a moment and remove with ease.
8. Cannot spread? Grate it
In a rush to make a sandwich and the butter is rock hard? Reach for the grater.
