Pinner says - Fly repellent - I had to repin this again for you to see. YES IT WORKS! Oh my, it looks hokie but our temps have been upper 90's and no flies in my back yard have been spotted. I spoke with a women who grew up on a dairy farm and she swears by it. She said they used 5 pennies. Go figure.

Tub & Shower Magic (Dawn & White Vinegar.) Oh my gosh I made this stuff and it's fantastic! You should see my sinks, showers and faucets They look brand new! Must try.
This long-forgotten gem of a cleaning agent may be used with a little water or vinegar to lift even the most stubborn stains. Unattractive grout? Mold and mildew stains? Burner pans and casserole dishes? Cream of Tartar is your new best friend.

Take your favorite liquid fabric softener and soak an old hand towel or flour cloth completely with it. Wring it out and let it dry completely, then throw it in with your next load. This mega-fabric softener sheet should be good for at least 40 loads of laundry WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!

Brittany Dunning I have these on my wall in my bedroom and I love the uniqueness they bring~
Turn standard bookshelves into pantry storage. The uniform clear & labeled jars are perfect to have visible in a kitchen or dining room. This would be ideal for buying certain items in bulk and being able to store them while in small space living. MUST, MUST, MUST do this for our home! Absolutely love. :)

A Cleansing Soak --> Once a week for 20 minutes, sit in a hot bath that contains a handful of Epsom salts, 10 drops of lavender essential oil, and a half cup of baking soda. This combo draws out toxins, lowers stress-related hormones, and balances your pH levels.

To figure out your cost per load, do something like this: soap cost ($1.92 for 4 bars = $0.48 for 1 batch) + washing soda cost ($2.99 for 6.5 cups = $0.23 for 1 batch or 1/2 cup) + borax cost ($4.29 for 20.5 cups = $0.20 for 1 batch or 1/2 cup) = $0.91 for 1 batch. 2 gallons is one batch, so using 1/2 cup for each load equals 64 loads from 1 batch = $0.0142 per load! Wow!
