Pour the soapy water into a pump sprayer and spray down the siding.

Hose off the soap mixture and admire your refreshed siding.

And be sure to follow up with a moisturizing deep conditioner afterward to avoid damaging your hair.

Defog Eyeglasses

Are your eyeglasses are always steaming up when you head indoors on a chilly day?

The soap creates a thin film that will stop that condensation from clinging to your lenses.

Clean Jewelry

It’s not always convenient to take a ring in to a jeweler for cleaning.

Did you know you could do it at home without any special equipment?

Then gently brush away the dirt and grime using a clean, soft-bristled toothbrush.

Remove as much air as possible, then seal and freeze it.

Let it sit a few minutes until the blockage loosens.

Try flushing the toilet.

If it won’t flush and is still clogged, repeat the process.

In a new spray bottle, mix a heavy squirt of dish soap (about 1 Tbsp.

), 1 cup of distilled white vinegar, and 1 cup of water.
