Life Hacks That Actually Work

Cut Your Bandaids

The More You Know

  • Avoid bad decisions by taking just a minute to focus and calm yourself before making a move.
  • Short on closet space? Use a lightweight piece of chain to stagger hanging clothing in tall closets to maximize space. Just loop the first link of the chain over the first hanger, and hang subsequent hangers on every other links after.
  • If your toilet bowl could use a cleaning but you're out of traditional cleaner, use mouthwash instead.
  • Stow bulky items overhead by cementing together a simple rack from 2" PVC pipes and fittings. Bolt the straight pipe to the ceiling joists to support heavy loads, and screw the angled pieces from the 'wye' connectors into the cross brace to stabilize the whole rack.
