10 Ordinary Household Things Turned Extraordinary
Elevating Everyday Essentials: Ordinary Household Things Turned Extraordinary
Everyday Domestic Objects may initially appear dull, with apparently restricted or absent utility. Nevertheless, today I'm here to reveal how these 10 household items can be ingeniously repurposed, providing remarkable adaptability and usefulness in your residence. Instead of disposing of them or purchasing costlier substitutes, uncover their concealed capabilities!
Transforming Everyday Essentials
1. Vinegar and Newspaper — Window Cleaner
When cleaning your windows, opt for a vinegar and water solution as it effectively cuts through grease on glass surfaces. Afterwards, wipe them dry with crumpled newspaper to achieve a streak-free shine. The glycerine present in the ink will help make your windows sparkle brilliantly!
2. Olive Oil — Lubricant
Apply olive oil to squeaky hinges instead of buying WD-40. Save a little money by using something you already have at home!
3. Mayonnaise and Eggs — Hair Conditioner
Mix together a mixture of mayonnaise and eggs to make your own homemade hair conditioner. Rub onto hair and let sit for 2-5 minutes before rinsing from your hair.
4. Lemon Juice — Cleanser
Rid your hands of the smell of seafood by rubbing a little bit of lemon juice on yoru hands. And voila! No more seafood smell.
5. Vinegar and Dish Soap — Weed Killer
Mix one quart of vinegar with two tablespoons of dish soap, spray it on your weeds and they will turn brown in a matter of hours!
6. Cayenne Pepper — Antibacterial
Clean up your cuts by sprinkling a little bit of cayenne pepper on them. You would think it would burn, but it doesn't! The wounds will heal faster and it will kill any bacteria in them.
7. Toothpaste — Burn Cream
Apply toothpaste onto minor burns to pull the heat out and instantly cool the burning sensation that you feel.
8. Honey — Cough and Cold Medicine
Enhance your foods and beverages with honey to effectively alleviate sore throats and reduce phlegm. A fantastic benefit is that honey has an indefinite shelf life! Simply warm it up if it hardens, and it's good as new for use!
9. Active Charcoal — Diarrhea Reliever
You can find active charcoal at your local pharmacy and this is what you can use as a more natural diarrhea reliever than the mass produced medication out there.
10. Borax and Coconut or Vegetable Oil — Goo Gone
Mix a two to one ratio of Borax to coconut or vegetable oil and make a paste that can be rubbed onto the sticky mess. Best if you use an abrasive material to apply it with like some kitchen sponges.

i’ve heard about the newspaper, I use vinegar for a lot of my cleaning. Thanks!
How wonderful!! And I never knew cayenne pepper could be used as antibacterial cleaner!!
This is great. I have been looking for safe alternatives to use around the house. I am definitely on top of the weed killer recipe. With the dogs and the way they like to eat the grass, that’s essential. Have you ever heard of Absorbine Jr? I use that on sunburn/burns. It’s a miracle worker.
I’ve tried the two vinegar hacks. Newspaper and vinegar really does an amazing job on dirty windows.
