The one thing I find annoying is going to put on a necklace and spending half an hour taking all the knots and other bits of jewellery out of it! This is a good tip for both at home or when you are travelling, to keep your necklaces from tangling up.
Just thread one end in to a straw and do it back up. If you want to make it stay in place you can make a small slit in one end and feed the necklace on it.
I do it for my bracelets too – just chop a straw down to fit!
So here it is Top Tip Tuesday! I can’t guarantee I’ll post a handy hint every Tuesday but I’ll do my best! This one is about those unsightly carpet dents that you get when you move furniture around. The easiest and the most effective way is to put ice on the dent. Here are two that I uncovered the other day when I replaced my daughter’s bed. One was narrow and fairly deep; the other was heavily dented but I couldn’t quite show how badly on the photo. I just put some ice on the dent and occasionally gave it a rake with a fork or you could use your fingers.
When its dry give it a hoover and Voila!
This one was the narrow dent and it completely disappeared first time.
This pesky one looked like this …
so needed another application of ice, then as if by magic…disappeared!
How great is that?!!
