I've been asked for more Hacks and Tips, so here you are! Enjoy! :)

. . .

1- Clean out an old lotion bottle for your beach bag and hide your phone, money, and keys in it for safekeeping at the beach.

2- Old car with no cup holder? Use a roll of duct tape on the passenger seat to hold your drink.

3- Throw an aluminum foil ball into the dryer. It will eliminate static cling and act as a dryer sheet.

4- Take pictures of business cards, receipts, etc, just in case you loose them.

5- Use paper clips to stick to the end of a tape roll in order to find it easier.

6- Put a mirror on the stairs to scare the crap out of people! ;)

7- You can shrink a pimple in minutes by putting a dab of Listerine on it. The alcohol will dry it up and cause it to fade.

8- A frozen, saturated sponge in a bag makes an ice pack that won't drip all over when it melts.

9- Stack your clothes vertically in your drawer so to see them all.

10- Use a muffin tin to serve condiments (tomatoes, onions, etc) at a BBQ. It also helps to cut down on dish washing.

11- A face brightening toner that reduces the size of pores, brightens face, reduces inflammation, and helps with acne: 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1 cup water, and 2/3 cup witch hazel.

12- Place a wooden spoon across (or in) a boiling pot of water to keep it from boiling over.

13- Use a hair clip (the claw looking ones) to organize long wires.

14- Hold Oreos with a fork so your fingers don't get messy dunking them.

15- Put a stocking over the end of a vacuum to find tiny items like earings without them getting sucked up.

16- Take an old CD spindle and turn it into a bagel tote.

17- DIY Teeth Whitener:

1) Squeeze half a fresh lemon.

2) Mix with about 1/4 cup of baking soda.

3) Apply to teeth with a Q-Tip, leave on for 1 minute.

4) Brush off, and voila!

18- To get long, thick, super soft hair:Massage organic coconut oil in your hair 2-4 times a week (leave in 10-25 minutes) and wash out with shampoo. Do this until hair is growing and healthy (no split ends) and reduce to 2-4 times a month. Works amazingly!

19- Break in your flats in under 5 minutes:

1) Put on thick socks, then your flats.

2) Blow-dry your shoes around the tight sections for a few minutes.

3) Keep your socks and flats on while it cools.

4) Test them out, repeat process if you need them more stretched out.

20- Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It's a lot cheaper than shaving cream and leaves your legs really smooth.
