Here are 10 more easy {and budget friendly} tips and tricks for all you homemakers out there!
1. Take scratches out of your CDs/DVDs using a banana
Peel the banana. Rub the banana on the CD in a circular motion. Use the underside of the peel and rub the banana in deeper. Wipe away the residue with a lint-free cloth, like you’d use to clean your
car windows. Using another cloth, remove smudges with a spritz of Windex. Voila, she is like new!
2. Store bedding in a pillow case
3. Take scratches out of furniture with a walnut
4. Magnetic strip as storage behind vanity door
5. Upside down muffin pan for cookie bowls
6. Hull strawberries using a straw
7. Use coffee filters to keep soil from falling through the hole

The magnetic strip also works well on a filling cabinet at the office to hold paper clips, etc!
