It’s great to reuse old jars and bottles. Those things can be really useful, but what happens when you re-label them? Or at least scrape off the last one, and all that old sticky residue is still there from the last label? Just use cooking oil, it’s as easy as…pie.
Rub some oil on the stickiness with some cotton and just watch how easily it comes off when you wipe it. Now you can repurpose old jars and stick whatever you want on them, or just leaves them clean and use them as decorative pieces on your window sill. It’s great in front of the light.

Our household goods and furniture are subject to a lot of wear and tear. Kids' feet, animals, accidents, spills, and more. You name it.

Toothpaste can take care of a lot of scratches. You can just rub it on those unsightly marks until they smooth out. Put just a dollop of toothpaste on the scratch and slowly buff it out in a circular motion. Clean up the rest with a damp towel.
