| Assign Colored Nylon Scrubbies for Bathtime
|
|
Save on laundry and hand soap! Assign a different colored nylon scrubbie to each member of your household. No more wash clothes to launder! A scrubbie creates a ridiculous amount of suds thereby reducing the amount of soap used.

| Make Your Own Ear Lifts
|
|
I've found a way to make my own "Ear Lifts", using clear packing tape, bought at the dollar store, waxed paper, and scissors. Stick a couple of inches of tape to the waxed paper. Then, just cut out your own ear lifts.

| Refill Mouthwash Squirt Bottles
|
|
Do you want to use mouthwash, but find it too strong? I purchased a little purse-size squirt bottle from the dollar store, used a little funnel and filled the small bottle. Now I just open my mouth, give myself 3-4 minty squirts, and my mouth feels refreshed!

| Refill Child's Cute Lip Gloss Case with Homemade Gloss
|
|
My daughter is 5 years old and loves all of the sparkly and colorful lip glosses that come in cute cases with her favorite characters on them. The problem is that these glosses are terrible for her lips! They are very low quality and drying to her lips.

| Hand Sanitizer for Sticky Hands
|
|
Use hand sanitizer on your hands after you've eaten, to get rid of sticky messes when you don't have soap and water available. It removes all traces of "stickiness" and works when dry napkins or paper towels by themselves just don't work.

| A+D Ointment for Dry Feet
|
|
I suffer from dry, cracked heels. I have tried many lotions and creams to soften and moisturize my feet over the years. When my mother-in-law suggested A+D Ointment for my daughter's dry lips, I had an "Ah Ha" moment and tried it on my heels after my shower.

| Use Antbacterial Gel in Your Bathroom
|
|
Our house is 100 years old and any activity on the plumbing affects the water pressure. When someone is in the shower it is a big problem. I have added anti-bacterial gel next to the sink so if you need to "wash" your hands the person in the shower doesn't get scalded.

| Baking Soda for Teeth Whitening
|
|
Use baking soda daily to whiten your teeth. It tastes terrible at first, but you get used to it. Just wet your toothbrush and dip it into the baking soda and brush as usual, then follow-up brushing with regular toothpaste for fluoride.
