Laundry Quandary?
Ever wondered what all those indecipherable icons on you clothes labels actually mean?
Pet Food Storage
Ever wondered what to do with dried pet food?
If you are anything thing like us and buy dog biscuits in bulk bags and have a problem storing it here is the answer...
Get a large storage box or bin (preferably with a lid -to keep dried food fresh!)
Remove a base units hinges and replace with drawer runners.
Attach a timber frame or a wooden base to the door to attach your storage bin to.
And once constructed fill it up with the dried food, we've also added a handy scoop!
Now those pesky pet food bags/boxes are no longer an eyesore and you now have easy access and a neat storage solution that is incorporated into your kitchen!
Decorating Solution #1
Here's a great tip for decorating...
Take: an old washing up bowl or plastic box,
a bit of pipe insulation (if you're anything like us, there's always some lurking about in the tool box!)
and a bit of duct tape,
And create this marvellous contraption!
All you need to do is make a slit along the length on one side of your pipe insulation, hook it over the edge of your washing up bowl or plastic box and tape in place.
Once you've taped it in place make cuts on the inside edge, being careful if you're using a stanley knife.
And there you have it - a handy paintbrush holder!
You can either fill the box with the paint you're using or just some warm water for cleaning.
A great solution for dripping paint brushes and filler spatulas.

Chips and Dip -Clever Serving Idea.
A great tip for entertaining - add a wine glass to a serving bowl before adding the crisps, then fill the wine glass with your dip. It not only looks cool but saves space and is practical!
(Not just for entertaining! Very practical if it's just you or for cosy nights in as two!)
