11. Spray Lemon Juice on Sweat Stains
Yellow armpits on your white T-shirts? Spray straight lemon juice on your stains and let it soak. Then toss into your washer and watch your stains lighten up!
12. Wash Legos in a Laundry Bag
Don’t feel like hand washing a THOUSAND lego bricks? Use a mesh lingerie bag and toss your legos in. Be sure the zipper is nice and snug and toss in your washing machine to wash. It will be loud (probably not good for nap time) but your legos will be clean!
13. Freeze Grapes to Cool Your Wine
It’s been a long day. You forgot to put the wine in the fridge and could really use a glass to unwind. Instead of watering down your vino with ice cubes, toss some frozen grapes in! Here’s hoping that you didn’t forget to freeze them!

14. Baking Soda Sachets
Since socks aren’t the best look when wearing your flats, they often end up a little smelly from your bare feet. Make small sachets with baking soda and put in toes of your shoes when they’re in the closet. They will soak up the odor and smell fresh as a daisy then next time you wear them!
15. Use Dawn as Ice Pack
Does your child have a boo boo but you have no ice pack in the house? Make your own! Fill a ziploc bag with Dawn dishwashing detergent and freeze. Once removed, it will stay frozen for a very long time and can be used over and over!
