Add Vinegar to Dishwater
I came up with this idea out of necessity. I was out of the expensive JETDRY product, so I poured white vinegar into the place where the JETDRY is normally poured. It worked just fine for me. I dont think you can go wrong, using vinegar.

Sweet Potato Vines In A Mason Jar?
You put the end that is pointed down in the water in the jar. You can grow these in your kitchen window or anywhere else in your home, where there is natural sunlight. Once you put the potato down in the jar, only about half of the potato should be in the water...

Paint Splatters On Winter Coat?
Instead of trying to remove the splatters from the coat, try to cover them up instead. My son got some white spray paint on a red fleece hoodie. I knew there was no way to remove it without damaging the color, so I opted to cover it up instead. Just get a permanent...

I read somewhere that you could buy cheapie cat litter, pour it into bowls/open cotainers & sit it around to absorb odors & moisture.

I would try rubbing alcohol & see if that works. It was recommended to me for removing black scuff marks on my dress shoes & it worked great.

Second Use For Paper Towel

Dishes Made Simple
Just today I saw a countertop dishwasher at Home Depot. It was only $169 & Im sure it wouldnt use much water at all. Sounds like this would be ideal for you.

Cleaning Cake Decorating Bags?
I would try a small amount of bleach in a sink full of water, overnight. I dont think the bleach would harm the bags in any way, since bleach is what is added to our drinking water, to clean & purify it.

Stain From Cake Crumbs on Soft Leather Sofa?
You might try the waterless hand sanitizer. Be sure & try it in an inconspicious place first, to make sure its color fast. I sat a bag of greasy food on my cloth car seat, without realizing that it had soaked through the bag on to my seat. I didnt have anything...

I have also used a clean, damped cotton swab to remove the lint from the back side of the hairdryer.

Easy Floor Cleaner
We built a new home (5) years ago & the vinyl floor manufacturer suggested that we only use vinegar & water to clean them, NOTHING ELSE!

Removing Hair From Hairbrushes?
I use my hair PICK & run it down through the rows of bristles. It works beautifully. Also, you can buy a crystal-like product at a beauty supply store that will take care of it, too. I have tried both & I prefer the PICK method & its free!

Use for a Cracked Wading Pool
I havent tried this myself, but saw it the other day around my neighborhood. Use the plastic wading pool for a sled to slide down those hills on a snowy day.
