Lost in the fridge
Ever lost something in the fridge? Depending on the size, try searching behind whatever's transparent or translucent. It's hard to believe, but light bends in weird ways, so items can become invisible when placed behind water bottles, etc. So, start there.

Remove spots from glass top stoves
After cleaning a glass top stove, sometimes, there are little oil spots. When the stove is dry and clean, and cold, take a paper napkin, and either use amonia, or brass cleaner and wipe on spots, and then wipe clean with a warm cloth.

Kitchen curtains
Pick out your favorite pattern and get a white fabric to line the fabric and use a sewing machine and sew them together and then fold over a slap and sew that and insert a rod and hang up your curtains.

Microwave cleaning
Wet a few paper towels and place them in the microwave and set it for 45 seconds (depending on your microwave). When done, just use those warm, wet towels to clean up any caked-on mess.

Cleaning silver cutlery
A quick and easy way to clean silver cutlery is to have a pan of water boiling on the stove and a number of pieces of scrunched up aluminium foil in the pan. Simply then "dip" each piece of cutlery against the foil and the tarnish is removed instantly! No polishing or fiddling!

Repair torn shower curtain holes
Shower curtain rings eventually tear through the holes in a plastic curtain. You can repair the tears with strong clear packaging tape. Cut a piece big enough to cover both sides between the hole and the top of the curtain. Or use a larger piece of tape and re-punch the hole in the tape. You now have an invisible repair.

Wrinkle releaser
Need to get wrinkles out of your shirt, but don't have time to iron? Fill a spray bottle with water. Put the shirt on a hanger and spray it lightly with the water. Smooth out the wrinkles with you hand or shake the shirt out. Be careful not to saturate the shirt or it will be too wet to wear. You can also try throwing the wrinkled shirt and a damp towel into the dryer for a couple minutes to release some of the wrinkles.
