Travel Mess-Free

Save the plastic zippered container that your sheet sets came in. You can use them for when you travel to put toothpaste, shampoo, - all your toiletries. That way if they spill, they don't ruin everything else you have in your suitcase.

Crumbs & Keyboards

I do alot of eating while at the computer. To avoid a mess falling on my keyboard, I tuck a full size Scott towel under the front & drape the rest over the keys. Any crumbs or other food drops on the towel & doesn't mess up the keys. Nothing worse than a drop of spaghetti sauce on the spacebar.

Dryer Lint

If you save the lint out of your dryer you can use it to clean up oil spills in the garage. It's cheap, works great, and you're gonna throw it away anyways. It even gets all the oil residue so none is left behind.

Emptying a Bagless Vaccuum

When I need to empty my bagless vaccuum canister into a garbage can, I don't want the dust to go flying around the room. My solution is to get 1 or 2 SCOTT paper towels wet and ready, then I empty the canister very slowly and as far down into the trash can as possible. Next I put the wet SCOTT paper towels over the vaccuum waste. This keeps the dust under control!

Water Globes

Every time I fill my plants' water globes, dirt has accumulated in the stem. I use bamboo skewers to clean the stuck dirt out. The skewer fits nicely alongside the dirt without pushing it further up the stem. Works every time.
