Pool Maintenance
We purchased a house with an in-ground pool. We had a large hole in the light niche fixed, but we are still seeing some water loss. What can be expected as far as normal evaporation? This is a 19000 gallon round pool, and the temps have been in the mid 80s.
Determining the Value of Antique Dishes
I have some antique dishes, Flying Turkey, with the "M" mark in a wreath, "T" mark in a wreath or triangle, and "TT" in triangles. What are they worth (ball park)? They were made in the early 19th Century.

Use a Nut Cracker to Open 2 Liter Bottles
My sister gave me this useful tip. We sometimes have a hard time opening 2 liter bottles. To remedy that, we use a nut cracker. You know the kind that usually comes with the picks? It is just right to go around the lid of the bottle and, in a flash, the bottle is open.
Hanging Clothes in a Wire Rack Closet
When hanging my clothes in my closet on the wire rack, instead of hanging them on the bottom bar where the clothes get all scrunched up together, I hang them on the top bar, placing one hanger in the space between each of the cross bars.

To save any of your jewelry from tarnishing, pop a length of chalk inside your jewelry box. I have no idea how this works but it does!
Making Dishcloths
I've joined a dish cloth swap. Most of the ladies are knitting or crocheting theirs. I don't do either, but was hoping that I might be able to still make one out of fabric that I could embellish somehow.

I love summertime. I love to plant and garden and watch everything grow. I love to take pictures of all my plants and see the beautiful colors and watch them grow from when I first planted them to the end of the summer.

Clear VHS Cases For Seedlings
When our library decided to get rid of videos in favor of DVDs, all the old transparent plastic cases went in the waste bin. This is a cloche made from some that I rescued. Superb for plants and less for landfill!
Fresh Mint for Air Freshener
I use fresh mint from my overgrown mint patch for air freshener. I gather a small handful and crush it up a bit, put a couple of bread ties or rubber band around it and hang it from the light fixture of the ceiling fan. I also put one hanging in front of the box fan.
Reuse Plastic Cat Litter Bags as Tomato Planters
The new tomato plants were out today, and I couldn't resist, thinking surely, I had some large planters at my apartment. You guessed it, no planters, but I do have a cat.
Alcohol Left White Spot on an Antique Dresser
I spilled rubbing alcohol on my dresser the other day. I tried rubbing with soap and water, but the white stain is still on my dresser. It's an antique dresser. What do I do to get that white stain off of my dresser? Thank you.
