I'm looking for tips that you wouldn't see on every cleaning or homemaking article. Here are some of mine:I use rubber bands to keep hangers from getting tangled up.I set the timer and empty the lint trap on the dryer before I fold and stack my clothes on top, that way I can just throw the next load in and press start. Then, I can load the washer, put the clean clothes in my basket, and be off. Since I often try to multitask, I end up eating while I am working on the computer, so I wrapped plastic wrap over the keyboard to keep the crumbs out. I also line the shelves in the fridge with plastic wrap for easy cleanup of unknown gooey spills. We were constantly getting clogged drains in the tubs, I guess bathing 7 dogs regularly will do that. But, the conventional drain hair trap will not work for us because of the plug's design. So, I took a piece of screen (not the metal kind) and draped it over the plug and attached it with waterproof tape. No more clogs! I'm sure this would be good for drain's that have a tendency to eat things, like wedding bands and toothpaste caps. Last tidbit, I hung the shower caddy on the opposite side of the shower head using a hook for hanging baskets. I hated how cluttered one side of the shower looked, while the other was bare, and also hitting my head on it after turning the water off. Thanks for your tip(s)!
