It's a blog that creates "a prosperous life" with you.
Household goods that are not used in the house pile up over time.
Sometimes there are household items that you can't throw away.
Let's read it briefly and learn how to use household goods.



1. Smell of food waste and blow it away with coffee grounds

Coffee residue is used for many purposes because of its unique color and scent. The best way to use it is to pour it on food waste or put it in a food waste bag. Coffee has a deodorizing effect, so it is very suitable to use instead of deodorant.


2. Remove the smell of refrigerator food with tea residue

If you collect the tea residue little by little in the tea cup and put it in the refrigerator, it becomes an effective deodorant. In tea-hungry homes, new debris will always be available as deodorant. Of course, green tea bags are also effective, so it's good to use them.


3. Replace batteries at once to make them into million rolls

When batteries such as radios and flashlights are exhausted, it is rather uneconomical to replace only one with a new one. This is because the life of the new battery is shortened. Therefore, when replacing batteries, it is a principle to change all batteries in electrical appliances at the same time.


4. Use for washing dishes with rice water and oiliness

Rice water has an ingredient that decomposes oil, so it is good to collect it well and wash the greasy tableware after eating. If you use rice water, the grease will disappear cleanly without using detergent. Moreover, it is not only helpful when it is difficult to use detergent due to a drop in detergent or a wound on your hand, but it also has the effect of killing two birds with one stone to protect the environment. You can also get the same effect with green tea or black tea residue.


5. The basics of water conservation, use a plastic bottle in the toilet water tank

If there is too much water every time you flush the toilet, it is also a waste. In this case, a toilet with a water tank behind it can be easily solved. If you fill a plastic bottle with water and put it in a water tank, you can save as much water as the amount of water in the plastic bottle every time you flush it.


6. Instantly save, such as fluorescent and incandescent lamps

Turning the fluorescent light on too often shortens the life of the light bulb, so it is easy to think of it as a loss. However, fluorescent lights have significantly improved these defects. So it's economical to turn it off for a moment. For example, the electricity bill applied to a single flashing of a white 20-watt fluorescent lamp and the shorter life span is based on 45 seconds. In other words, if it takes more than 45 seconds to turn the fluorescent light off and on again, it is beneficial to turn it off diligently.


7. Use the remaining thread and mop to sew

It's good to use the remaining thread after sewing to make a mop instead of throwing it away. Fold the old piece of cloth in the usual sewing box into a mop and sew it little by little whenever the thread is left. If you do this, the mop will be completed before you know it. It's woven, so it's strong and it's good to see that it's sewn with colored thread


8. Cut old rubber gloves into round pieces and use them as rubber bands

You can cut old rubber gloves into round circles and use them as rubber bands. You can freely make and use rubber bands of various sizes such as wrists, backs of hands, and parts of each finger. In addition, you can freely make things that are wide and narrow.


9. Making a baby blanket out of an old blanket

If you have an old blanket at home, try making it into a baby blanket. First, cut the blanket in half. And then you make a bag that's the size of a blanket out of the pretty painted side of the cloth. Place a half-cut blanket in your pocket, seal the entrance, and thread the four corners and center. You can cover your children or sleep on a sheet during the change of seasons or in the middle of winter.


10. Use a leaky hose to water the grass

The leaky hoses are still useful. These hoses are effective if you drill more holes with a knife to water the lawn or garden. Simply connect it to a faucet and spread the hose in the garden, and water will be sprayed in all directions, making it easy to water. Replace the spring cooler.


11. Another deodorization method using coffee powder

Use coffee powder as a natural deodorant instead of throwing it away. Put dry land in a jar with a small hole in the lid, and put the jar in the bathroom. The floor absorbs unpleasant smells, making the bathroom smell fresh and clean.


12. Using eggshells as fertilizer

Rather than throwing away eggshells, use them to grind into powder and enrich your garden soil. Calcium in eggshells promotes plant growth and helps prevent rotting of tomatoes and peppers.


13. Magazine holder using cereal box

Instead of recycling cereal boxes, turn them into magazine holders. Cut the box diagonally from the top and wrap it in decorative paper to create a stylish and practical storage solution.


14. Use wine cork for various plant markers

Don't throw away wine cork and use it as a marker for plants grown at home. Write the name of the plant on the cork, stick it in the skewer, and stick it in the soil. It can be a valuable record management if you write down unusual things such as when you started growing plants in the cork.
