So, if I want to remember it these days, I pin it on Pinterest (which is incredible!!!). However, little snippets of smartness from a magazine article or column…can’t be pinned. So, here they are:
1. Use a baby wipe to clean a stain in the carpet. It’ll even take out red wine and chocolate with no damage to the carpet’s pile. (hopefully I won’t need that little tip in the next 18-24 months…we’re seriously eyeing wood/Pergo)
2. I love the “Buttercream” colors from the July 2011 issue of BH&G. I will have those saved in Coverleaf (once they update the subscription information). I really want to do yellow in our family room, hall, entry. And I want to do green in the kitchen and dining. Need to find two that work together.
3. 10 seconds in the bedroom to straighten the reading material on your bedside table and take the already-read stuff to the recycling bin.
4. 90 seconds to line up shoes at the bottom of the closet to make them easier to find.
5. 5 minutes to go through a single drawer and toss outdated and worn-out clothes. Too embarrassed to wear it to answer the door? Get rid of it.
And now, I can toss this little stack of torn out magazine pages into the recycle bin.
