  Some very helpful easy tips!

  lists homemaking

  • 2. For inexpensive framed art - Buy old frames at yard sales then fill them with pages from old or half-priced calendars. These make great gifts, too.
  • 5. Home remedies for ACNE, BLACKHEADS, AND PIMPLES: (via)
     * Dab a small amount of toothpaste (paste, not gel) on pimples before bed; this helps dry out the pimples
     * Apply fresh lemon juice on the affected area overnight. Wash off with warm water the next morning.
     * For acne that hasn’t seemed to respond to anything, steep 2-3 tsp. dried basil leaves in 1 cup boiling water for 10-20 minutes, cool, and apply to affected area with a cotton ball.
  • 8. Vacation time for plants - While away on a vacation, try leaving them in the bathtub with an inch of water
  • 14. Free 411 - Call 1-800-free411 (373-3411) and get assistance for free after a short 20-30 second ad. Good to program into your cell phone as well.
