Extra hanging space in laundry room
Ever think, I wish i had a place to hang clothes in my laundry room? Put a shower rod in the room, and there you go, you can hang up your clothes as they come out of the dryer- which will also help to reduce wrinkles!!!

Prioritize to make moving easier
When moving, make it easier to unpack by numbering and allocating what room the boxes go to as you pack them. 1's are Most Important - Must have immediately, 2's are second priority - Need to have within a week or so, 3's can go in a spare room or garage until you get to them. Just be sure 3's do not get damaged by hot or cold weather if they are put in a garage or attic.

How to remove grass stains from jeans
If you have jeans that have grass stains but they don't seem to come out, try this trick. When washing, pretreat knees as you would regularly do but before washing, add a pair of shoes that need washing to the load. The shoes will rub against the jeans like a scrub brush and knees will come out good as new!

Use new trash cans in new home
When moving to a new home, no one wants old trash cans for bed and bath. Purchase cans ahead of time and label them as to which room they are intended. Fill with items such as towels, washcloths, shower gel, shampoo, dishsoap, shower curtain liner, toothpaste and brush, alarm clock and even slippers. This puts at your fingertips items you will need immediately without having to hunt for them and eliminates some packing hassle, at least for the first few hours.

How to freshen bed sheets in between changes
I change my sheets once a week and during the week my sheets sometimes get crumbs, dusty or fuzzy. To make your bed feel fresh when you get in it every night use a lint roller. I recommend the Bounce lint roller. It makes your sheets feel fresh every day and the Bounce smells like Bounce dryer sheets so it will be extra fresh.

How to type non-smear addresses on envelopes
The type from most inkjet printers will run when it gets wet. To prevent the address you just typed from smearing if it is rained on, place a strip of Scotch tape over the address on the envelope. Now even if the mail carrier gets a few rain drops on the envelope, the address will be safe.

How to protect your doors from dents in the garage

Do laundry early and get it over with
Start your laundry on Thursday nights to get it out of the way for the weekend. Do the easy laundry first, towels, sheets, jeans, etc and save the hard to do clothes for the weekend when you have more time. You'll spend less time wasting your weekend on this thankless chore and you'll always have clean clothes!
