Need to remember this ... so many clothes I thought were ruined... Chalk will remove grease stains from clothes. Simply rub the stain with chalk, then toss in the wash as normal.

Whoa....Vinegar works as a wood stain when you add a metal object in the mix and let it sit in a glass container for a week.  A handful of pennies will produce a beautiful pale Caribbean blue stain.  A wad of steel wool will give you a rich reddish hue.  A combination of tea and a metal object in vinegar will produce a black stain.

When painting something, use a few push pins in the back of the object to lift it off of the table. No more sticking to whatever its painted on. SM@RT!

FYI. A Parmesan Cheese lid fits a regular mouth Mason jar perfectly. ;) Wow!
