1 Soda Pop Tag Hangers Double Your Closet Space
Out of all of the life hacks from Pinterest, this is one of my all time favorites. It seems like no matter where I live, the closet is never big enough. If you have run into this problem, then this life hack will change your life! All you do is put one end of the soda pop tag over the hanger that’s hung up on the closet rod and then feed another hanger through the other opening. Just like that, you’ve doubled your closet space! This works well if you live in an apartment like I do or have to share your closet space with someone else. Keep in mind though that this process works best with wire hangers.
Frequently asked questions
2 Use a Can Opener to Open Blister Packs
I don’t know about you, but I have the worst time trying to get into blister packs. Scissors and knives will barely cut through the plastic. Luckily, this life hack from Pinterest has the perfect solution to these pesky packages. Simply use a can opener to get into hard to open packages. This will save you plenty of agony and time!
3 Use Toilet Paper Rolls for Storage
Finally, there is a purpose for empty toilet paper rolls! If you have cords to store, there is no better way to keep them than by lining up toilette paper rolls inside a box. That way, each cord gets its own cubby and won’t get tangled with the other cords in the box. This also works great for other small items that you don’t want to get mixed up.
4 Wooden Spoons Keep Pots from Boiling over
One of the most stressful things that can happen while cooking is your pot boiling over. I don’t know about you, but I hate when it happens! Who knew that there was such a simple solution? Take the wooden spoon you’re using to stir and lay it over the top of the pot. I’m not sure how it works, but it prevents water from boiling over in the pot. I love this life hack so I’m not going to question its magic!
5 Use a Stocking over a Vacuum to Find Lost Items
This life hack has saved me countless hours of searching for lost earrings and other small items. If you drop something on the floor and just can’t find it, take a pair of stockings, wrap it around the hose part of the vacuum, and begin running it over your floor. The suction from the vacuum will pick up tiny items like earring backs while the hose prevents it from getting sucked into your vacuum and getting lost for all eternity. I think this will be your new favorite trick!
6 Use Bread Clips to Organize Cords
There are few things more stressful than trying to figure out which cord you need to unplug behind your TV or computer. There are usually so many cords plugged in, it’s hard to keep track. Label bread clips and put them around the cords so you never have to guess again. This life hack will save you tons of trouble in the future, I promise!
7 Freeze Water in Your Water Bottle
Water bottles are a must-have when exercising, but sadly they don’t always keep the water cold enough. That’s where this life-changing life hack comes in! Fill your water bottle halfway up with water and then lay it on its side in the freezer. The next time you’re about to hit the gym, take it out and fill it up with water. This life hack is especially nice while exercising outdoors in the summer. Your water will stay cold throughout your entire exercise! This simple trick can make workouts so much more enjoyable.
There are many more life hacks on Pinterest than these 7, but I have found these are the ones I use the most. I hope they help you out as much as they’ve helped me. I love how creative these solutions are to everyday problems. Will you be trying out any of these tricks? What’s your favorite life hack that’s improved your life the most?
