Practical solutions and ideas with a pair of scissors

CaykutusuEasy grab hole/ window for teabags. If you are a tea fan, like I am, you know how hard it is to get teabags out of the stacked boxes in the kitchen cabinets. The boxes clutter, fall down, just drive you crazy.

I figured this trick actually from a Stash tea box. You just cut a half circle at the bottom. Then sort the tea boxes vertically, side by side. Some boxes already come perforated this way. But if doesn’t, you can do it yourself.

So my easy solution was to cut an old overall, with a wide neck, at the bottom and a little bit at the sides. I call this the meal-time shirt. It covers everywhere, including the lap.

Hair cuts I am the hairdresser in our household. I use the scissors more than then the clippers. It is very convenient as men don’t need to drive to the hair salon every 3-4 weeks. I can cut any time of the day. We save money. And I like the 1-to-1 time with family members during haircut session.

I am a mother of two and a type of person who you would call “Jack of all trades, master of none”. As you might guess from categories, I love my children, reading, sewing, gardening, traveling and cooking. I also work full time so I have to be practical to do all the things I want to do in a 24-hr-day. More About Me
