I just love to learn new household remedies for around the home, because I like to be able to do things myself, especially using objects and items I already have laying around.
This is your chance to share more ideas and helpful household hints with me, and all the readers of this website, because there are always new ideas and things to learn.
You can already share your homemade cleaners recipes here, and your stain removal tip here, but a lot of tips and suggestions just don't fit in these categories, so I created this section of the site.
You might have a great idea or home remedy for unsticking a stuck zipper, fixing scratched glass, or using duct tape to patch an object in your home. Whatever it is, I would love to hear it here.
Remember, the best tips and hints will get featured on the site, so send me your best stuff! You can skip down to submit your hints right now.
