Make an Impromptu Clipboard

By Sandi/Poor But Proud

A small legal pad attached to a small cutting board with binder clips. When you have a dollar tree cutting board that is no longer good for food, don't toss or recycle it. Turn it into a clip board! With the 3/$1.00 mini legal pads, two binder clips and the cutting board, you can make something to do a shopping list, To Do list, or even a Honey Do list!

Stretching Fabric Softener

By Faye

There is nothing more pleasing to me on laundry day than smelling the fragrance coming from my bottle of Gain Fabric Softener. Problem is that I live on a limited income and all the "name brand" fabric softeners can become pricey.

Lollipop Bouquet Garland

By katrine2706

Lollipop Bouquet Garland - finished candy garlandThe school year is about to end and I have started my seasonal business again. My business strategy is simple. To make it appealing, know your market. I have started this at my kid's school with candy garlands since kids love to have candies around their neck during graduations and enjoy the goodies afterwards. Now, I'm getting more customized orders.

Removing Gorilla Glue from a Guitar
How do I remove Gorilla Glue? I like fixing things and, true to form, I bought a guitar that someone tried to repair with the brown urethane Gorilla Glue. I explained to the first owner this type of glue is exceptionally good at seeking out moisture and foams up to pull it from the air. I'm expecting to need a lot of patience to clear and remove the residue.
Slogan for a Cleaning Business
I need a catchy slogan for my cleaning company called, Rainbow Cleaning.
