National cleaning products
1. The plug
Original assignment:spin spaghetti and catch the "running away" mushroom on a plate. New application: use a fork to smooth out dents in the carpet. Such imprints remain from massive furniture - the higher the pile of the carpet, the more noticeable they are. Take a fork and straighten out the crumpled areas. Result: a flat surface of the carpet (not counting!).
2. Rice
Original purpose: garnish for fried chicken and not only. New application: coffee mill cleaner. Pour a handful of rice grains into a coffee grinder and mix it: small particles will absorb the smells and collect the remains of coffee. Remove the rice flour and wipe the container of the grinder. Result: the original fragrance of a cup of freshly ground coffee (just after a hearty dinner with chicken and rice).
3. Corn flour
Original purpose: hominy, flat cakes and other national dishes. New application: destroy grease stains with light clothing and upholstery (well, suddenly you have no salt at home, and corn flour - as much as you like!). Pour a little flour on the stain, allow to soak for 15-30 minutes. Shake off the flour from clothes, and soft furniture will have to be vacuumed. The result: cleanliness without a trace of stains.
4. Baby oil for massage
Original purpose: baby massage. New application: "massage" of chrome surfaces. Saturate the napkin with cosmetic oil and wipe it with taps, handles and other chrome interior details. Result: radiant surfaces throughout the house - starting with the one who lies in the cot, ending with the bathroom and kitchen.
5. Scotch tape
Original purpose: glue boxes, wrap wires. New application: protection of walls and skirting boards from traces, which leaves a brush of a vacuum cleaner during the strengthened struggle against a dust. Glue the tape along the edge of the brush - thereby protecting the walls covered with plaster, as well as skirting boards from blows while vacuuming. The result: clean without black marks.
- More: scotch will cope with the dust on the shade
6. Toothpaste
Original purpose: return to the teeth of pearly whiteness. New application: Polishing of scratched CDs. Squeeze a tiny drop of toothpaste (gel does not fit!) On a cotton ball. Wipe the disc surface in the direction from the center to the edge, as well as along the scratch itself. Rinse the disc with water. Result: Your heart is not a CD, the voice of Frank Sinatra will leave an indelible mark on it.

By the way: about a coup in the fate of a mop
Original purpose: sweeping the floor. New application: "sweeping" the ceiling. Use a mop with a rag to collect cobwebs and dust from the corners of the room and from curly moldings. The result: no more circus tricks, like when you balance with a rag in your hands on a shaky stool.
