Thank you Helen and welcome to my forum!!! I'm sure you didn't know the graphics in your post aren't showing for some reason. :( Know what though? I can still figure it out without a picture.:)

Congratulations on your first forum, Evelyn.

Here's something light and nuetral ...but useful for everyone.

Ideas to Make Life Easier

Why didn't I think of that?! We guarantee
you'll be uttering those words more than
once at these ingenious little tips, tricks
and ideas that solve everyday problems.


Hull strawberries easily using a straw.




Rubbing a walnut over scratches in your
furniture will disguise dings and scrapes.



Remove crayon masterpieces from your TV
or computer screen with WD40. (I don't
think I would put WD40 on the newer
computer screens.)




Stop cut apples browning in your child's
lunch box by securing with a rubber band.




Overhaul your linen cupboard, store bed
linen sets inside one of their own
pillowcases and there will be no more
hunting through piles for a match.



Pump up the volume by placing your
iPhone & iPod in a bowl. The concave
shape amplifies the music.



Re-use a wet-wipes container to store
plastic bags. You can also use empty
Kleenex tissue boxes.




Add this item to your beach bag. Baby
powder gets sand off your skin easily. Who
knew?!




Attach a Velcro strip to the wall to store
soft toys.


Use wire to make a space to store gift wrap
rolls against the ceiling, rather than
cluttering up the floor.


Find tiny lost items like earrings by
putting a stocking over the vacuum hose.




Make an instant cupcake carrier by cutting
crosses into a box lid.




For those who cant stand the scrunching
and bunching: how to perfectly fold a
fitted sheet. Now if you could teach your
husband.....




Forever losing your bathroom essentials?
Use magnetic strips to store bobby pins,
tweezers and clippers, behind a vanity
door.




Store shoes inside shower caps to stop
dirty soles rubbing on your clothes. And you can find them in just about every
hotel.





A muffin pan becomes a craft caddy.
Magnets hold the plastic cups down to
make them tip-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 paper bag. Much healthier and
cheaper than the packet stuff.




Install a tension rod to hang your spray
bottles.




Turn your muffin pan upside down, bake
cookie-dough over the top and voila, you
have cookie bowls for fruit or ice cream.




Freeze Aloe Vera in ice cube trays for
soothing sunburn relief.




Create a windowbox veggie patch using
guttering.




Use egg cartons to separate and store your
Christmas decorations.

No they didn't but you know what they say, it's the thought that counts and you can still understand the points being made.
