Do you know how to remove a print from a T-shirt, quickly peel an ear of corn, or fold jeans neatly so they take up minimal space?
New collection of useful tips and unusual ideas from netizens. Many of these life hacks can significantly simplify tasks that always take time, energy and nerves.
1. Nowhere to store your wired headphones? Use the Kinder Surprise toy case - perfect for plugs or droplets.
2. If you have lost your sealant or liquid nail cap, use a wine stopper. Make a hole in it with a drill and place a tube on the spout. True, it should be understood that this is a temporary solution, since the cork still allows air to pass through.
3. Have no place to store pot lids, ladles or cutting boards? Use the inside of the cabinet door. By gluing a few simple hooks to it, you can discover new storage space.
4. How to fold jeans quickly and neatly so that they take up minimal space? Very simple.
5. To keep freshly made toast cool quickly and prevent condensation from forming underneath, leave it on the table in the same position as in the photo below.
6. To keep the paint tray (cuvette) always clean, you can simply wrap it in polyethylene. This will not affect the convenience in any way, but you will already have to wash one less item.
7. Another construction life hack that allows you to quickly divide a bag of cement into two parts.

8. When painting the skirting board on a staircase, you can use the remnants of the laminate flooring to help protect the edges of the carpeted steps to prevent paint from spilling onto them.
9. Do you have a T-shirt that hasn't been at its best for a long time, or you just don't like it? If it is cotton, then perhaps the print can be completely removed from the fabric using acetone. But be extremely careful: use gloves and do not inhale liquid vapors.
10. Are the bolt washers run out at the wrong time? If time is running out, use drilled metal coins. Reddit users advise pennies, but with us, pennies are fine.
11. Need a tablet stand urgently? A simple fork can help out, which, of course, you do not mind. You will have to bend the prongs in several places.
12. Home carpets can only be thoroughly washed with a pressure washer. If you don't have one, or there is simply no place to apply it, use a self-service car wash.
13. To prevent the ladle from falling into a large pot or dish, insert the narrower cutlery into the hole in its handle - yes, yes, this hole is not only for hanging.
14. To quickly peel an ear of corn without leaving a single "hair" on it, put it in the microwave for a couple of minutes, and then cut off the base and squeeze the ear out of the leaves.
15. There are also plenty of ways to quickly peel the garlic, but here's another one for you - using a bottle cap that allows you to gently separate the husk.
16. And here's how to prepare ripe pineapple for consumption: remove the leaves, knock the fruit on a hard surface and roll it as if you were rolling out dough. The last two points can be repeated, and then you can break off pineapple slices without cutting it.
