My Frugal Life Submit a My Frugal Life Essay! Today's Tips: Keeping Pattern Pieces Together I am beginning to cut out a robe for my granddaughter. The pattern has several views. I am going to take the pattern pieces which go to one view and fold them together and secure with a paper clip or safety pin. The ones which are to be used for more than one view, I will keep together securing them in the same way. That will make the pieces easier to keep up with and there won't be as much searching for certain pieces By MartyD from Houston, TX Post Feedback: http://www.thriftyfun.com/tf25752873.tip.html Email to a Friend | Get Responses | Bookmark | Link | Rate It: | Print Drying Extra Cilantro When I make salsa, I use half a bunch of cilantro. For a while, I would just let the extra go bad in my fridge (BAD IDEA). Then I realized that I can easily dry out the remaining cilantro and use it that way! Preheat oven to 250-300 degrees F. Lightly coat a cookie sheet with baking spray to help with sticking. Strip the leaves off the stems of the cilantro, and spread the leaves in one layer on the cookie sheet. Let the leaves dry out in the oven for 20 -30 minutes, check once. You just want the leaves to lose the fresh green look. Take them out of the oven and cool on the cookie sheet. Use a spatula to scrape off the cookie sheet, and slightly crumble the leaves. Put in an airtight jar and store with spices, use when needed! These will last as long as any other dried herb you buy.

What we didn't realize was that the paint we dripped on the drop cloth was seeping through. We had a ton of dark green paint spots on our near white carpet. What took them all up was Barbasol shaving cream. Spray it on, mush it around and wipe it up with a clean white rag. Some spots only needed it once, others had to be done multiple times. Let soak and scrub.

This scares and distracts the dogs enough to run in separate directions. Banging two metal feeding bowls together has the same effect.

They can become natural decor for Christmas. Some places don't have pine trees, so you may actually be able to sell them online, at a flea market or a fair. I was traveling one year and was shocked to see a small bag of pine cones in a store on sale for $5! I had a yard full of them back home!

Open the laces wide, pull open the tongue of the shoe so the air can get inside and lay shoes on their side with the opening facing the grill. Hold you hand over the grill while the refrigerator is running and you will feel air blowing out one side more than the other, so use this side for faster drying. This is room temperature air so it won't shrink the shoes like a dryer. By morning, they will be dry.

Pick large frame like the size of 11"x14" or 16"x20", 18"x20". Larger sizes look more dramatic. 2. Use left over curtain fabric or a coordinating fabric for your frame. Also, use left over thin batting to have a more refined look. 3. Buy and inexpensive foam board 1/4" thick or less or cardboard from a large box. 4. Cut it a few inches smaller than the frame, so you leave enough allowance for the fabric that is going to be wrapped around it. 5. Cut your fabric to size the board and with batting (very thin so you can get in frame after), with 1 1/2 inches extra to seal over corners/sides. 6. Using spray adhesive, spray your board, and gently place batting on on board, smoothing out all the wrinkles. 7. Place fabric on top, sealing on corners and sides with hot glue. Place back into the frame and secure down. 8. Optional: add multiple sizes of family photo for a more personal touch. Sepia or black and white photos look great on fabric frames. Now you have a nice unique coordinating picture in your room everyone will rave about.

Pencil/brow powder just did not work for me - so, after having looked at expensive products on the internet, I was inspired to try something else. I dotted my Revlon Colorstay eyeshadow (in taupe) on my eyebrows and gently blended it into my brows. It worked! Looked great, and what's more, lasted until I removed it with makeup remover, which is more than I can say for what I had used before. By Pamphyila from L.A.

My son is going to Welding school, he uses our old mini van for transportation. He carries all his welding supplies in the back of the van, some of it in a big plastic bucket. He swears he checked to be sure everything was cold when he put it in, but we came home last night and the van was FILLED with thick, black, acrid smoke! Something hot in the bucket smoldered and burned everything in the bucket, melted the bucket to the floor & singed the back seat. It had just started to flame and we put the embers out with the hose! The biggest problem is major smoke damage. It is in everything; I don't know how we are going to get rid of it. We only had liability on the van, so can't file a claim. I bought Odo-Ban to wipe down the hard surfaces and upholstery. I got several bags of charcoal to hopefully soak up some of the smell. I also got plain cat litter to pour on the floor where we hosed it, to absorb water and odor. I probably need to rent a shampooer for the upholstery too. I know this isn't going to get rid of all of the smoke and smell. I'm sure it's in the ventilation system too. Do any of you have any suggestions on what else we can do to clean up this mess, and get rid of the smell so the thing is drivable again? At this point I'm pretty desperate and willing to try almost anything.

He used the whole box. Now we are all about to gag from the fumes/odor. I guess I will go under and try to find all these moth balls. Any advise what to do about the smell.
