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.

Bread Test: To discover oven hot spots arrange bread slices to cover the middle oven rack. Bake at 350° for a few minutes, and see which slices get singed―their location marks your oven's hot spot(s). If you know you have a hot spot in, say, the back left corner, avoid putting pans in that location, or rotate accordingly.

Gather up all those oils and vinegars as well as salt and pepper shakers in a basket by the stove - or put them all on a lazy susan plate in the pantry.
A list notebook - because some things just can't be done on the computer (as much as it pains me to say so).
personalize your knife block. because most of them aren't that pretty.
I think I've already pinned this once before - that's how much I think this is a fabulous idea!

Adhesive tile spruces up storage areas: When the floor of your sink cabinet needs a spruce-up, lay down squares of self-adhesive vinyl tile. They're about a buck a square at home centers and provide an easy-to-wipe clean surface.

Kara Hudson This works brilliantly. Next time I'll make it with 1 tsp of Dr. Bronner's rather than just regular dish soap.
