More than a dozen Clever Ideas

The simplest way to slice a  bunch of cherry tomatoes is to
sandwich them between two plastic lids and run a long knife
through all of them at once!



Keep brown sugar soft by storing
with a couple of marshmallows.


Install a regular coat rack
low down the wall to store
shoes safely off the floor.


Organize jewelry on a corkboard for easy viewing.
 
 

Create a thrifty watering can by puncturing holes
in the top of a used milk bottle.
 

Remove pet hair from furniture and carpets
with a squeegee.
 
 Water straight from the tap becomes cloudy when frozen. To make ice cubes crystal clear, allow a kettle of boiled water to cool slightly and use this to fill your  ice cube trays.


Use a large muffin tin to cook stuffed peppers in the oven -
it will help keep them upright.
 
 To prevent potatoes budding,
add an apple in the bag.


Add half a teaspoon of baking soda to the water when hard-boiling
eggs to make the shells incredibly easy to peel off.
 
Prevent soil from escaping through the holes in the
base of flowerpots by lining with large coffee filters.
