Rubber Bands as Strap Securers




Original purpose: Bundling mail in the postman's bag. 
Aha! use: Keeping camisoles and sundresses from slipping off their hangers. For this stop-strap measure, wrap a band (or two if you use skinny ones) around each end of a hanger. 
Reward: Garments that stay put instead of sliding to the floor.

Get Organized Using Everyday Items


Tall Vase as Toilet Paper Container

Original purpose: Showing off all those long-stemmed roses from gentleman callers. 
Aha! use: Helping toilet paper hide in plain sight. 
Reward: Guests don't have to root around for a new roll in your not absolutely, positively tidy vanity, and you always know when you're running low

Rock, Paper, Trimmer!


By Fiskars! Love it ~ Not only is it pretty and pink, it also plays music. Yes, you heard that right. Just plug in any MP3 player or iPod and rest it on the dock at the top of the trimmer, and you can rock out to your favorite tunes through the two speakers on the left.
