old things, new uses

I came across some really good ways to repurpose everyday items from RealSimple.com.  I never knew so many things can be so useful, just like auto insurance.  I definitely  look at things in a different way now.  Here are some of my favorites.

1) WD 40

It can be used to remove crayons from any surface such as plastic, metal, TV screens or freshly painted walls. Just apply a small amount and rub away with a clean cloth.

2)  Mayonnaise

It can be used to remove old stickers from mirrors, glass and bumpers.  Just apply a generous helping to persistent adhesives and scrape it off with a putty knife.

3)  Laundry bag

Great for keeping lids, baby bottle caps and other small items from falling through the dishwasher rack.

4)  Pillowcases

They can be used to clean a ceiling fan.  Just slide an old pillowcase over a blade, then grip the case and pull it back.  This will keep the dirt contained.

5)  Newspaper

When your container has smell, just use some newspaper and put it into a plastic container, seal it and let it sit overnight.  By next day, all the smell will be absorbed by the newspaper.  What a great Food container deodorizer.

Keep Your Cables Organized

My husband was on the computer a while ago looking for 24 hour towing and I quickly asked him to also check out anything that can keep the cables organized.  I have a big problem with cables all over the desk and floor.  What a big mess.  Well, I am glad that he found Cordies, a on-your-desk cable management system which organizes the computer cables and also keeping them weighed down so that they do not fall off the desk when disconnected.  I like them because they are cute and colourful.  Cordies come with 3 individual loop spaces and is available at Quirky.com

Baby Baths Make A Great Baby Shower Gift

bath1

A friend of mine  invited me to her baby shower last weekend.  It was great to see her and everyone had a nice time at the shower.  I was looking around for a nice gift for her baby a week before the shower and decided to get the Flexi-bath.  It is a hard plastic children’s bathtub made from polypropylene and thermoplastic elastomeric.   What is so special about this bath is that the corners and non-slip bottom of the bath have TPE lines which enables the bathtub to be folded flat easily with a touch of the hand.  Designed by Danish Company, A Real Cool World, the bath can be stored anywhere in the house.  How space-saving eh?  I bought the green bathtub for my friend’s baby.  Also available are pink/red/blue/transparent and turquoise.  Check out Gizmag.com.

Decorating Children’s Bedroom

My soon-to-be 5 year old has been asking me to decorate her bedroom.  She told me that she wants her own room (we have been co-sleeping).  My baby is growing up fast.  It seems like just yesterday I was popping those prenatal vitamins.  I have been looking around for some ideas and spotted these cool stickers from Hu2.com.

Watch A Chip Off The Old Block Online

I hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed Christmas celebration.  While hubs was fiddling with the faucets in the bathrooms during the holidays, I spent my time watching A Chip Off The Old Block online.  I enjoy watching this comedy a lot because I like 60’s fashion.  Also my favourite actors and actresses are in this 20-episode drama.  They are Ron Ng, Myolie Wu and Shirley Yeung.  I have watched 8 episodes so far.  What about you? Are you a fan of A Chip Off The Old Block too?  Next drama on my list is The Watchdog’s Tale.  I just can’t wait.
