I feel like the biggest idiot for never thinking of this: Use tape to measure distance between the two holes, then put the tape on the wall.

I keep meaning to do this: Use empty Lysol wipes containers to keep plastic grocery bags! Keep in your car for trash. Totally portable, and she even shows you how to put the bags in so they pop out one after another.

MATTRESS spring cleaning:pour about 1 cup of baking soda into a mason jar and drop in 4 drops of lavender essential oil. Put on the lid and shake up the jar.Using a kitchen strainer sprinkle the baking soda mixture all over the mattress and let it sit. I leave it for an hour or more, usually the time it takes for me to finish washing all the bedding and press the bed skirt. Using the hose end of your vacuum and an upholstery attachment, thoroughly vacuum the mattress. Bye, bye dust mites and other nasty things. The baking soda helps draw up any moisture and deep dirtiness. It deodorizes and leaves the mattress smelling fresh and clean. I also love the faint scent of lavender left by the essential oil.

Homemade cleaner. *Works like a charm & smells great too* take the empty bottle of your favorite cleaner. Don't worry about emptying it out. Add 2/3 cup of your favorite fabric softner, 1/3 cup baking soda, 1/3 cup of vinegar, & fill remainder up with hot or warm water. Your counters & floors will sparkle, stains come up easily, & it smells fabulous! For more cleaning tips, follow me on Twitter @CrystalFaile06

It would be easy to make a heart garland, something to brighten up mid-February. Or, hey, a birthday garland to hang on the mantle each time a family member has a birthday.
