Reuse Paper Wrapping From Toilet Tissue
This is such a good idea. Especially wrapping up those sanitary products in before trashing. Saves on toilet paper. Every little bit of recycling helps a lot.

Use Utensils in Unusual Ways
Using that pizza cutter for cutting spaghetti and pancakes is a great idea. I never thought of using it for more than what its made for. Gee, there must be a lot of other things to use it for too.

 

The Words Of Love

Making Cookies in a Toaster Oven
I often wondered if you could bake cookies in the toaster oven. I dont like turning my stove on if I dont have to. I also bought a toaster oven from a yard sale a few years ago and use it all the time. It also bakes biscuits. You cant get as many done at one...

Old Rake Cup Holder
What a great idea! I think ill make one, paint it white,decorate with flowers and ribbon and hang my necklaces and chains on it in my bedroom and then figure out how to hang other things on the rest of the rake...thanks

 

jelly bean prayer magnet

Jelly Bean Prayer Magnet
Great idea. The magnet wont be too big for the fridge either. I like the idea of Carols to put them in tiny bags with the prayer tag. So many ideas can come from one suggestion. The jelly bean prayer can also be put on an Easter card to print out on printer...

Drying Nail Polish Quickly
Good idea dipping your nails in ice water. I tried the spray Pam and it did dry them, but you have to wash your hands good after to get the oil off. I guess I didnt wait long enough because I messed up my polish, but a plus to it would be that the oil is good...
