Something happened to me last week. I was suddenly inspired to do 4 Pins for Trish’s Pin It and Do It Challenge. Maybe I can make it all the way up to Pin Obsessed (8).
*Chunky Citrus Guacamole (Recipe)- I like avocados and this recipe was quite good. Unfortunately, I’m the only person in the house who eats them so I ate a lot of this by myself. Ugh. Make for parties.
*Hot Vinegar and Dawn on Bathroom Tile (Household Hint)- I was skeptical about this one at first. The hot vinegar melted my spray bottle. However, once I sprayed it on and left it for a couple of minutes, I wiped it off and my subway tile was very shiny. A week later and my tile is still sparkly. It didn’t do much for my grout though.
*Scarf Organizer (Household Hint)- An easy one. The girl has a few scarves and never knows where they are. This simple solution works fairly well. I had the hanger (obviously) and bought a box of clear shower curtain hooks at Walmart for $2 or $3. The only problem with this one is without a full hanger of scarves, the hooks all slide toward each other.
*Nubbie Scrubbies (Crochet)- A couple of balls of Cottontots yarn from Bernat (Lemon Berry, Wonder White) and I made these washcloths. Very soft!
So far, so good. No duds yet. I’m not 100% sure what I’m going to do next but I have ideas. Thanks, Trish!
I wonder if you could wrap something around the hanger to keep the scarves from sliding one way? I'm not sure what--I'm thinking something rubber but it's too early to think of something. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the guacamole. LOVE it but hub is allergic to avocado. I just keep telling myself "good fat, good fat"
YAY!! Great progress!!
I probably could come up with something if I gave it some thought. :)
DeleteI need to do an update on this one as well! I love this challenge.
ReplyDeleteMe too, it's been fun.
DeleteDawn and hot vinegar? That sounds interesting to say the least! Nice to see an update on all of your progress. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, you got to use it right away or it gets all foamy in the bottle. I'd do it again sometime.
DeleteI use a huggable pant hanger for my scarves. I hang them through and around the hanger then put it on the back of the door. They stay in place.
ReplyDeleteI think I have some of those. I'll try it.
DeleteI'm going to try the dawn and vinegar for the tile in my bathroom shower poss this weekend. I wonder if, rather than put it in a spray bottle, if I could keep it in a bucket and apply with a sponge? Hmmmm...
ReplyDeleteProbably, but I would wear gloves to do it.
DeleteIt sounds like you're rocking the challenge!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteMaybe you can let the vinegar cool a little before using the spray bottle? Or maybe use a glass one?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I didn't think before I poured it. Plus is was a cheap dollar store bottle.
DeleteI'm always looking for natural, non-cleanery ways to clean my house. Will definitely try it! My tile is due.
ReplyDeleteTile is hard to keep looking shiny. I loved it when we first put it up but it's the bane of my existence.
