Why Didn't I Think of That?

My mom sent me a forward that had all these pics and this info in it. I have no idea where it came from, but I thought there were some interesting ideas here. Some I had heard before, but some were new to me. We all need more tips for the everyday problems, right? I figured I would pass on some enlightenment! :)
Above:
Overhaul your linen cupboard, store bed linen setsinside one of their own pillowcases and there willbe no more hunting through piles for a match.

Below:
Install a tension rod to hang your spray bottles.
Remove crayon masterpieces from your TV orcomputer screen with WD40.
Hull strawberries easily using a straw.
Rubbing a walnut over scratches in your furniturewill disguise dings and scrapes.
Stop cut apples browning in your child’s lunch boxby securing with a rubberband. Pump up the volume by placing your iPhone & iPodin a bowl. The concave shape amplifies the music.. Re-use a wet-wipes container to store plastic bags.
Add this item to your beach bag. Baby powdergets sand off your skin easily, who knew?!
(I see this pic is from i heart naptime.)
Attach a Velcro strip to the wall to store soft toys.
Use wire to make a space to store gift wrap rollsagainst the ceiling, rather than cluttering up the floor.
Find tiny lost items like earrings by putting astocking over the vacuum hose..Make an instant cupcake carrier by cuttingcrosses into a box lid.
For those who can’t stand the scrunching and bunching: how to perfectly fold a fitted sheet.
Forever losing your bathroom essentials? Usemagnetic strips to store bobby pins, tweezersand clippers, behind a vanity door.
Store shoes inside shower caps to stop dirtysoles rubbing on your clothes. And you can find them in just about every hotel.
A muffin pan becomes a craft caddy. Magnetshold the plastic cups down to make themtip-resistant.Bread tags make the perfect cord labels.
Bake cupcakes directly in ice-cream cones, so much more fun and easier for kids to eat.
Microwave your own popcorn in a plain brown paperbag. Much healthier and cheaper than the packet stuff.
Turn your muffin pan upside down, bake cookie-doughover the top and voila, you have cookie bowls for fruitor ice-cream.
Freeze Aloe Vera in ice-cube trays for soothingsunburn relief.
Create a window-box veggie patch using guttering.
Use egg cartons to separate and store yourChristmas decorations.

Well, she did more than lend...she went above and beyond to help me get this beautiful page rolling. THANKS SOOOOOO MUCH, Melissa!!

Planting, Planting, Planting

I love gardening. I really do. I long for the time when the weather allows me and Andre to get out in the yard, and clean winter off of it! I have grand, well, maybe not grand plans, but do-able plans for this spring and summer.
Anyway, I am getting off of the subject. I love to plant, and I want to pass that on to my kids. At Target the other day I found these cute little planting kits in the dollar bins. (Love those dollar bins!) I thought this would be a cute way to get Cash active in plant life.
I forgot to take pic's while we were planting, but here are some from this morning. Cash loves to check his sunflower's progress every morning. You can tell he has some serious bed head.
The blue is the sunflower. The yellow is the daisy. Aren't they the cutest, little pots? I will post them again to show the how they grow.
