HINT & TIPS Welcome to another installment of the FReeper Canteen Hints & Tips. Hopefully, youll find something here that youve never heard before. If you have tried one of these hints, please share your thoughts on it. Tonight, well do some general household hints.
*** Metal cookie cutters double up nicely as unique napkin holders for special dinners. If you want, spray paint them to match the decor.
*** Remove adhesive from stickers on glass by rubbing vegetable oil with a soft cloth or paper towel, then wash. *** Pan size is measured from the top, not the bottom.
*** Put used steel wool scrubbing pads in a plastic bag and store in the freezer to help prevent rust.
*** Trouble putting the lid on a plastic container? Run the lid under hot water for 20-30 seconds and it will close easily. *** Glass tabletops will sparkle if you rub gently with lemon juice or with vinegar, then dry with paper towels and polished with newspapers. (All hints found on websites. Management makes no claims to the effectiveness of any hints) Join us again next week for more hints.

Nope,... honest pure luck as I’d just finished putting up the last FRWN thread and going back to the forum and there it was so I tried to jump in first. Obviously I made it.
