6. Organise your tights

Source: whatiwore.tumblr.com

Rather than bundling them in your drawer, loop tights over a coathanger and store them in your wardrobe. Particularly pretty if you have a rainbow legwear collection like Jessica at What I Wore.

7. Keep cakes fresh with bread

Source: bakedbree.com

Pre-bake your cakes and keep them fresh overnight by placing a slice of bread on top. In the morning your bread will be hard as a rock but the cake will remain moist, ready to ice. We have no idea how it works but Bree from Bake Bree swears by it! (Hot tip: check out her chocolate peanut butter cake while you’re there. OMG!)

8. Use milk bottles for pencil storage

Grab a craft knife and recycle your large plastic milk bottles in to pencil holders. Extra points if you go all OCD and file them by colour.

11. “Whipped” detergent stain removal

Source: apartmenttherapy.com

For upholstery stain removal, whip it good! Apartment Therapy says, “Fill a container with half dish detergent, half water, and use a hand mixer to whip it up. Use a rag to rub the froth into the spot, and then rinse with water.”

12. Store cookie cutters on the wall

Use a peg board and hooks wall mounted in your pantry for a super organised cookie cutter wall!  See how Annie did it here at Annie’s Eats.

13. Iron clothes with a hair straightener

Source: realsimple.com

Touch up your ironing job with a hair straighter. It’s great for getting in between buttons and smoothing our minor wrinkles when you don’t have time get your ironing board out. Go for a model with adjustable heat, set it low, and make sure there’s no residue hair product on the straightener first.

14. Keep cans in a magazine file

15. Cook while you’re not home

Source: mamaandbabylove.com

Here’s a pro tip for mid-week meals. Prepare all the ingredients for multiple slow cooker meals at once, then dump them in to bags and freeze. When you’re ready to cook, simply take a bag out, throw the ingredients in to the cooker and turn it on. When you come home from work, dinner is waiting. Find recipes and details at Mama and Baby Love.
.

16. Pack like a pro

.
.
This is called the “clown car” or “bundled” packing method, which involves layering and wrapping clothes around each other instead of the usual method of folding and stacking. It’s a little hard to describe in words, so watch the video to get the idea, or check out this diagram.
.

17. Never lose your pen

Source: biancolo.com

Put magnets inside a pen and stick it to the fridge and you’ll always have a pen handy. Unscrew the end of your pen, trim the ink straw a little with scissors and put a few small disc magnets inside.
.
.

18. Make your own air freshener

Source: theburlapbag.com
So apparently, you don’t really need all those scented plug-ins, sprays, or automatic dispensers that look like space ships. This recipe couldn’t be easier. It’s just baking soda, with around 8 drops of your favourite essential oil. Give it a shake every now and then to refresh the scent.
.
.

19. Create extra kitchen storage

Source: bhg.com

Hang a shoe organiser over your pantry or kichen door and fill it with cooking utensils and supplies that you use every day.

20. Clean grout with an electric toothbrush

Source: diylife.com

Take to your grout with an electric toothbrush and some baking soda to cut through the soap scum (and the elbow grease).

21. Use shower caps as food covers

Source: thekitchn.com

Avoid wrestling with plastic wrap or cling film by using shower caps instead. The elastic conforms to the shape of your container and they’re reusable too.
.
.

22. Prevent necklaces tangling

Source: realsimple.com

It seems whatever way I pack my jewellery, it’s always a mess when I get to my destination. Until now! Stop necklaces from forming knots by undoing the clasp, threading a straw through and re-clasping. So clever! Just remember to take the straw off before you wear it …

If your precious iPhone takes an unexpected swim, all is not lost. Lots of people have had success in reviving their waterlogged tech gadgets with rice. Turn your phone off, take out the SIM card and place in a bag or bowl of rice for 48-72 hours. Check out video instructions here. Good luck!

24. Portion mince meat before freezing

Place mince meat in a large ziploc bag and flatten out evenly. Separate in to portions using a chopstick or skewer and then freeze. When it’s time to defrost, you can simply break off the amount you need and put the rest back in the freezer.
