    FOLEX is astounding. My poor mom at the end of her life got blood on the light carpet by her bed in her retirement home. No one could get it out and every day it reminded her of how ill she was 🫂 I ordered FOLEX, flew out to be with her at the end, and it took the blood right out. A very small thing, but it was one less thing weighing on her when she died. (Peacefully in hospice care at 91 ❤). Long story for an AMAZING product.

    As someone who works in a high-end printing and framing place, I wholeheartedly agree about the Amazon frames. $62 for a 24x36, or $41 for a 16x20 is terrific. Keep in mind that you can have a great 11x14 print, buy this 16x20 frame, and go to a shop like where I work and get a custom mat cut for it for about $15. The only thing even nicer than a framed print is a matted framed print.

      Great input! An idea that I would like to share: If you buy an inexpensive downloadable print (One recommended source off the top of my head is Etsy), "paint" your print with Hodge Podge with the strokes going in the same direction as if you were painting. AE.G.: circular for an apple, horizontal for the sky, etc.). The h
      Hodge Podge dries clear and it makes your print look a LOT more authentic!

      The Scrub Mommy paste is absolutely the best on my stainless steel sink. It comes in a container similar to car wax with a place to store the sponge in the lid. It removes the grime around the garbage disposal and erases the water spots, then leaves a shine that stays around a little longer than any other cleaner I have used. I am not a fan of stainless kitchen sinks, mine was here when I bought my house, but the paste does make it a little less of a pain. It is also all natural, so not harsh chemicals and that is awesome as well.

    Magic Erasers absolutely will take off paint if you scrub enough, and if you use it in semigloss or gloss, it will take off the sheen. It is a mild abrasive, which is how it get things off. In a pinch, I've used one in place of super fine sandpaper.

    My pro-tip is Pure Citrus air freshener. You can get it a lot of places, including Home Depot and Amazon, but you don't really use it as an air freshener for this tip, though it does smell nice. It's the absolute best product I've found for getting stickers/sticker goop off of things. My husband used to do merchandising in Home Depots and they used it to get price tag stickers off of the bays all the time. Now, I use it to get those ridiculous Ross price tags that just disintegrate into goop when you try to remove them off of those steeply discounted name brand water bottles, or if my kid puts a sticker on the car window or something. Nothing works better. Though, I did find that it kind of melts Wet hairbrush plastic, so there's that. It's pretty much just citric acid oil.

    I've also reluctantly become a Scrub Daddy convert this year. I think they're not as good at scrubbing the really deep, burned-on things, but they last FOREVER, and, unlike other sponges, they don't smell. I throw away other sponges once they get smelly and fall apart. I throw out my Scrub Daddy after 6 months because I've just whittled it down to nothing, but it'll still smell fine. Scrub Mommy has a gentler side on the back and that one will develop an odor, so I don't think it's worth buying.

I would spray down their whole pant. I kinda laughed because Nick said his 2 Pack lasted him forever! I would go through a 2 pack a month with my kids. I spray the bottom of my boys white socks too to get the bottoms clean. They will run around in their sock and go outside🤦🏼‍♀️. I spray it on everything! When I have something that got some kind of food or blood I will spray the spot, really saturate, rub it in real good and then leave it in the laundry room till I do that load and often when I go to do that load the spot has vanished before I put it into the laundry.

    First, Amazon is basically the new online Sears and Roebuck catalog from 150 years ago. The thing I like best about the Scrub Mommy is that it comes in white--can't stand colored sponges. That is reason alone to buy it over the other one. Magic Erasers are basically 2500 grit sandpaper--if you aren't very gentle or use enough slip on painted surfaces, they will leave dull marks or take paint off.

      Here's a hack I just discovered. I was desperate one night getting ready to go out. My legs weren't in the best shape when it comes to smoothness. I got out a brand new good quality micro fibre cloth and damped it ever so slightly (less). I folded it in two and began to use it on my legs I held it at each end and swept it up and down my legs. I couldn't believe the difference it made to the smoothness of my skin. I managed to do both legs in 5 minutes. I finished off wih the handcream residue that remained on my hands after I'd washed them. Talk about necessity being the mother of invention. Both legs looked as good as though I'd spent a couple of hours on them. Give it a try !

    The "magic" of the Magic Erasers (melamine) is that they're basically an ultra-fine sand paper so you can't necessarily use them on everything. They will dull and/or ruin certain types of finishes so if you're not sure, test on an inconspicuous place.

    Butter isn’t a product that typically goes moldy or rancid very quickly. It has such a high fat content relative to everything else that it isn’t hospitable to microbial growth. Plain water, on the other hand, is likely to get mold or other growth. Knowing absolutely nothing about the butter bell and having never heard of it until now and done zero research, it seems like a poor solution to a minimal problem. If you aren’t using butter from a dish fast enough, just put less out in the dish at a time.

Pro tip: if you or someone you know has raggedy troll feet that get the fitted sheet at the foot of the bed all pilly, use this!!! I actually happened to have it with me when we stayed someone else's house and used it on their sheets. I need to buy a second one so in case mine dies, I'll have a backup. 1000/10 highly recommend.

    I've been using a butter bell for a few years. Mine's not as pretty as that one, but it works great. Every two or three days I pour the water out, wipe it out with a paper towel & refill it. My butter has never gone bad. If you still have a problem with butter going bad, add a tiny splash of white vinegar. You won't taste the vinegar and it helps to keep it fresh.
