Transparent Screw Organizers

Magnetic Tool Strip
Do you have to dig through a drawer or bucket to find drill bits and screws? Instead, hang a magnetic tool strip so you can easily see and find your metal tool accessories when you need them.
Clean fruit and veggies without harsh chemicals
Clean fruit and veggies without harsh chemicals. Scrub fresh produce with a mixture of baking soda and water to remove grit, grime, and pesticides.
Remove icky cooking smells from your hands
Neutralize garlic- or onion-scented hands by rubbing them with lemon juice, baking soda, or stainless steel. Why stainless steel? When you touch the material, the molecules in the steel bind with the stinky-stanky causing molecules (such as sulfur from garlic).
Save fresh herbs for later use
Use an ice-cube tray or muffin tin to freeze fresh chopped herbs in water, olive oil, or stock for later use as a seasoning agent.
Before you know it winter will be here. So start preparing for winterizing your home now.
