101 pretty good ideas from Home & Garden Television

A continuing compendium of tips and tricks from Home & Garden Television:

1. To add moisture to skin throughout the day, add some rose petals to a small spray bottle of water and spray on hands and face. Change the mixture every two days.

2. For too-tight shoes, place a freezer bag inside the shoe, fill the bag with water, seal it and place the shoe in the freezer overnight. The power of water expansion will make the shoe fit great the next day.

3. To make it easier to water plants, use long cone-shaped plastic watering spikes that fit right over a plastic soda bottle. Screw the spike onto the top and turn the bottle over, placing the spike into the soil of the plant. The water will slowly drip from the bottle, giving the plant a steady supply.

4. Have a piece of clothing that’s too large? If shrinkage is what you want, then place the item in hot water, plunge it into cold water and then into a hot dryer.
