To Remove Ink - BY SHERRY L.
To remove ink, including permanent marker ink, from carpet or clothing, spray with Aqua Net Hairspray, then wash clothing immediately, in your normal wash cycle. For carpet after spraying ink stain with Aqua Net hairspray, blot with papertowels to get as much ink out as possible, repeat until all ink is gone. Any hairspray would probably work, but I've just always used Aqua Net.
Baking Soda - BY MARY
I Have found that putting some baking soda and very hot water in a thermos will get it clean as a whistle.
Dryer Doors - BY KELLIE P.
When my son decided to use the dryer as a hiding spot for a game of hide and seek, the fold down door did not want to support his 65 pound frame and bent. With this, whenever I would dry a load of laundry, the door would pop open from the tumbling of the clothes. I proped and ironing board to close it for awhile (till I kept tripping on it) then I found at my local craft store...super magnets. These magnets are incredibly strong and 6 does the trick. I have called Sears about a replacement door and it is over $200.00!! With $3.65, I have used the magnets for 2 years and had no problems since.
To Clean Your Eyeglasses - BY MALENA T.
To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs.
Vodka Cleaning Remedies - BY MALENA T.

-- To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash clean. The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew.

-- Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka and letting your safety razor blade soak in the alcohol after shaving. The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.

-- Spray vodka on vomit stains, scrub with a brush, then blot dry.
