PLASTIC FLOWERS
To clean plastic flowers put them into a carrier bag and add a couple of tablespoons full of salt. Shake the bag around for a minute or two. When the flowers are removed they will be as good as new.
SOAP SAVING
Put slithers of soap into a washing tablet net. The abrasive material on the bag will act fast to get rid of the dirt on your hands.
PILLOWS
Before washing foam filled pillows, tie knots in each corner. This will hold the filling in place and when the case is removed you will have a perfectly shaped pillow instead of the foam all collecting in one corner.
TOP TIPS NOT TO DO
Most times I venture out onto the streets there are always a few tips that would be better off not mentioning. This weeks winner, who shall remain nameless came up with two of the most dangerous tips I have ever heard of. They are definitely NOT to be tried at home!
BOILING UP TROUBLE.
The first suggestion was to save money on expensive pots and pans by simply boiling up your pasta and sauce in the kettle. It uses a fraction of the electricity and cooks it to perfection. Don’t try boiling drinking water afterwards though!
FORTIFIED WITH IRON
The same person claimed that they could also cook up a full Irish breakfast on an upturned iron. Apparently the temperature is just right to get the sausages a nice golden brown and the eggs are done to a turn. What happens to the fat that drips off of the sides I wouldn’t like to guess (never mind how your clothes would smell after ironing)!
