all the easy details and by the way this entire channel is dedicated to cleaning and life hacks yep the whole thing subscribe if you're new or better yet let me earn your subscription starting with number 23. you know those mesh laundry bags that you can get at the Dollar Tree you get three in a pack to put your delicates in your brows your panties all the lovely things that you do not want damage by the way I have a whole video about how to wash delicates without damage I'll link it below for you but today we are not using this for delegates I mean that would be boring that's not really a hack now is it I love using these mesh laundry bags to contain the plastic bags when I do grocery pickup from Target in particular or if I go to the Dollar Tree and I forgot to bring my reusable bags you can put so many of these plastic eggs in these mesh bags and it looks cute and contained and it's organized and I get excited now about how to house these plastic bags I like to keep one of these in each of my bathrooms that way when I'm changing out the garbage by the way we use these in my garbage can it's orderly it's tidy and I have everything at my fingertips you can also use these mesh delicate laundry bags in your car as a snack holder I got this massive one from Amazon which is absolutely gorgeous but why not use a mesh one this is great for the beach it's just great for your car it's great to put in a backpack loving this because mama needs snacks on hand we don't want to get get hangry more to come on that number 22 baby oil in the baby section from Dollar Tree get some of this for your household because I'm going to show you here really quickly how you can use this for things outside of having babies I like to shine up my faux plants with the baby oil it makes them look shinier gives them New Life they get excited I mean I get excited you can also use this to shine up your faucet and the beautiful thing because oil repels water you'll have less likelihood of water spots when you rub a little bit of baby oil on there I like to do with a microfiber towel and I'm feeling good when my faucets are shiny and it smells nice too piggybacking on that let's solve a very annoying problem do you ever have squeaky doors or hinges oftentimes we get a squeaky door from the garage into our house because that door gets so much love throughout the day you can also use this on your cabinet door so if you have some cabinet doors that are making little just rub a little baby oil on there I like using a Q-tip that way I have better control over the dispersion of that baby oil a little goes a long way remember that in a number 20 spot we're gonna head to the craft section at Dollar Tree now I'm not much of a crafty person but I do like to use several of the items for cleaning and life hacks and you're going to get some of the sort of Bungee ribbon if you will and we're going to use it to solve a very common household problem that may drive you crazy at least it did for me don't you just hate when you throw something in your garbage can or it gets overly full the bag starts to close in on itself and then you try to do the Command hooks on the side of the garage bag but depending upon the bag it just kind of slips off you got to put the Command hooks in the right place so no no we're going to take our bungee we're going to measure it out if you don't measure it perfectly it's just fine you can tighten it as needed but you can see here wrapping it around my garbage can this very heavy boot well somewhat heavy boot is no match for our Dollar Tree craft DIY yes I am loving this in fact we have one of these almost on all of our garbage cans you can buy the Garb bands I think is what they're called but why when you can get a whole spool of it from the Dollar Tree for a dollar 25 number 19 you know if you've been here a while of all things smells strong smells light smells just all the smells yes I like bleach that could explain a thing or two but today we're taking some car events from the Dollar Tree and you guessed it no we are not using this for the car because again that's boring let's take these car events and you can stick them I'm sticking them here in our office my husband and I share an office together and when the heat turns on the air comes on I got a nice Fresh Linen right beside me it's very discreet I feel like I have a fresh load of laundry just brewing in my office as we speak got a smelly gym bag or maybe you have some boys or girls that have smelly hockey stuff I'm in the land of hockey just flip that baby right into that gym bag so that it is concealed and hidden but making everything smell oh so good or maybe sweat covered in nice Fresh Linen kind of like poo spray poo spray works great although it still smells like and poo spray who know what I'm talking about if you've ever used poo spray before it's a tinge of something familiar you know number 18 spot these shoe eraser from the Dollar Tree you can find these at the checkout counter or close to the checkout counter at least in all my Dollar Trees where I live this is great for shining up your shoes and getting all those scuffs out yes magic erasers work great but I love that there are dual sides to this shoe eraser make sure that you get it thoroughly wet it's going to help the product work much better and what I noticed about these you know Magic Erasers can start to disintegrate after a while will this shoe one hasn't for me and our number 17 spot grab yourself some Dollar Tree wax paper we're gonna use this in a couple of ways here today so get excited about that a little trick with the wax paper make sure you punch or poke the ends of the wax paper in it makes it so it can come out much easier especially as you get lower on the wax paper and then tuck the lid in to get a perfect tear every single time but again we're not baking with wax paper we are going to shine up our faucets with this there's a nice wax coating on the wax paper it transfers onto your fixtures which is nice and helps repel future water stains can't seem to get any stains up grab an old dryer sheet fabric softener sheet whatever you want to call it that also works great at lifting stains and water spots in and around your sink and then go back in with your wax paper as needed number 16 hangers you're gonna grab yourself some Dollar Tree shower Rings you may have seen a couple of hacks related to this one but I got a two for one special for you on this you can see this really cute hat organizer I got on Amazon I don't know how much I paid probably too much and then I also have this really cute sort of tank top bra organizer yes love it it's from Amazon but let's do you one better I want to save you some money and I also want to make things look cute not trashy in your home unlike my tin foil video yeah that was a bit of a parody like death one over here I try all the things this first one you can Loop your hats using these shower Rings onto a hanger so if you have a ton of hats and you are not quite sure how to store these babies you can load them up with as many shower rings as you can fit on your hanger this also works great with tank tops you can double them up you can sing them up you get to decide it's totally up to you now I will say it can start to look a little bit tacky but if it's placed correctly in your closet you're just gonna kind of see the the fronts of the tank tops but it's super functional that's the best part about it and it saves space and it's renter friendly I want to give a real quick shout out to Lynn Nipper thank you so much for your multitude of super thanks and supporting this channel I greatly greatly appreciate you in a number 15 spot every season every holiday they have different trinkets when it comes to Valentine's Day or St Patrick's Day is on its way so I wanted to grab some of these we're gonna do two purposes with these gold coins I just thought they were so cute and then you're going to grab yourself a Dollar Tree Glass any glass will do it's completely up to you I like a smaller glass you'll see why here in just a second next you're going to go ahead and fill your glass with your favorite gems that you discovered at the Dollar Tree maybe it's Easter maybe it's Halloween maybe it's who knows what then you're gonna take your pens and now you have your very holiday inspired pen and or scissor holder really cute a nice way to display things yet being festive all at the same time here's a little parenting sort of trick that we like to do or you probably could do this with your wife's or husbands completely up to you we have a paddle system in our house when our kids do the things that we want them to do we give them Pebbles right like treats for the things it's dogs you want to train them you got to train the children that guy could use a little training myself so these gold coins are going to be a great substitute for the Pebbles or it'll just be worth more Pebbles translate into dollars so then they can go and buy and save and all that good stuff you know number 14 but you're gonna go to your Dollar Tree to the organization stationary section and you're gonna grab one of these sort of pencil organizer things these have been in my Dollar Tree for a while but I just kept overlooking them I'm like pull the trigger and I could not be happier you can see this cabinet was quite a mess we use it every single day was the bane of my existence but I thought what's a great way to organize these without the pencil scratching the top of the cabinet every single time and I didn't want to put the pencils down because they're going to get dull and break you get where I'm going with that so this is the perfect organizer and I'm so happy I'm so pleased with it I get so excited just to open and close the cabinet because yes and it's not just for holding your pencils although that did solve a very common problem in my household because that's boring you can use this for holding your lipsticks and your lip glosses you can see this beautiful gold glass one I got from Amazon but for a zala 25 you can take your pick the tall one the short one depending upon the size of your cabinet I think they look so cute you can also store your makeup brushes in there what a great way to dry them as well and then I just want to try this last one for funsies if you had this on a desk you could put little lollipops and little candies in there and you got your work done and then you can reward yourself with a sucker I don't know that's kind of fun in a number 13 Spots You're Gonna head to the Dollar Tree and get yourself a squeegee I thought they were out at my Dollar Tree I just had a get down low and there they were I previously showed how to use the squeegee to clean hair off your carpet even though you vacuumed and then you use the squeegee and you're like what just happened did I even vacuum but today we're going to use it on our countertops you know sometimes when you clean your countertops there are still streaks so I'm gonna grab one of my favorite granite countertop cleaners and then you can use your squeegee to clean it off and get all those marked I have to say this cut down my time when cleaning the countertops immensely because I have to clean those babies breakfast lunch dinner snack Play-Doh crayons paint all the things I'm loving this little squeegee hack thank you Dollar Tree you know number 12 spot you're gonna grab yourself some plates from your local Dollar Tree take your pick I wanted something black so that it was Chic because you know oftentimes you go to the Dollar Tree and people make crafts and you're like that looks cheap I'm not putting that in my house yeah I don't want that I want it to look nice I don't want it to look like I only paid 3 375 for this beautiful gem I'm about to show you and then you're going to grab some Dollar Tree candle holders of your choice you can do two or you can do one depending upon the height that you want and then you're gonna take some E6000 glue because that glue is holding everything up and just glue it to your plates and make sure that it is completely dry I did the first part with the smaller plate first and then I let it dry for about an hour and then I went in with the big plate and you can see here I've made something very beautiful and Chic now you may have seen something like this where people hold their jewelry in it and I think that looks great it's quite heavy I have an alternative solution for you that I thought was even cuter you can use this to hold your fruit and your produce though when I'm transferring this on was from Amazon but I actually think I prefer my 375 is that did I do the math correctly depending upon how many candle holders that you use you can also use this to house some very gorgeous desserts if you're having friends family over a brunch perhaps oh and I did spend all day baking those cupcakes and cookies for that two second clip mmm that just smells good you smell it you can smell it's like sugar yes [Music] delicious another clever idea for you when it comes to this two-tier stand you could certainly make a three-tier stand if you wanted to meat and cheeses and crackers and then little tongs on there like that would be so cute in our number 11 spot you're gonna get all things organized all those little trinkets that cause you a headache you're gonna head to the automotive section at least that's where it was in my Dollar Tree and you're gonna grab one of these clear cases that are intended for tools but again we're not going to be using it for tools I no joke use this every single day when I do my two girls hair I have it in the bathroom I just take it to the kitchen I do the hair shut the lid it's organized everything's contained I love it this is also a great way to organize all of your batteries you may have seen those little battery organizers from Amazon with the little holes in them and I thought about getting one of those but I was like why this actually looks cuter and then there's not all these empty spaces for batteries that I don't have you get what I'm going with that in a number 10 spot this next one's a bit of a stretch but it works you're gonna grab yourself one of these soap holders from the Dollar Tree you certainly could use this in your kitchen to hold your soaps and your sponges and all the things you have in your kitchen or even in your shower you could use it to hold your soap but actually I want to show you here it's actually holding up a pretty good sized backpack another idea I had is you could use this in your closet if you had a place to stick it it does help if you get a little bit moist it sticks better you could use it to hang your purses yeah make it more organized you could display it you could hide it whatever you wanted to do I also wanted to show you here I could put my cell phone in there so if you wanted to do one of my home workouts on Elite fit with Andrea Jean my other YouTube channel you can just prop me up right there wherever this will stick in your house maybe you have a remote situation you want to keep your remotes up and you want to hide it so I just stuck it here to my cabinet and two remotes fit in there take your choice it's not the most aesthetically pleasing but it's functional and does the job and so if you can kind of hide it I love this inner number nine but go ahead and grab yourself an ice cube tray you get two for a dollar 25 but again not using it for ice you can use this ice cube tray to organize tools if you're doing a sort of craft project you could use it for office supplies if you wanted to tuck it inside your drawer but my favorite way to use this was actually for my necklaces you can see here in my closet it's a bit of a mess so let's just organize these babies so they do not get tangled up and I'm not going to leave this out because again that looks kind of tacky but the best way I found to do this is just to slip it in a drawer where I get ready every single morning I can just look in my ice cube tray and grab out whatever gold piece of jewelry that I want because apparently I need 15 gold necklaces that basically look all the same in our number eight spot I was looking for travel soap containers and I could not find them but I think I found something even better if you have an old soap travel container at home I'm going to show you a little trick on how to use it and no it's not for your soap but I found these two pack storage bins even cuter and what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and put my kids crayons in there so if we go to a restaurant or in the car we're on the Go kids are fighting over crayons they can have their very own stack of crayons at their fingertips and they're very cute Dollar Tree case in our number seven spot grab yourself a pack of binder clips I love that there are varying sizes available to you in a previous video I showed how you can hold up your cell phone charging cords yes but I'm gonna do you one better are you cooking something maybe you want to make Mary's monster cookies and you want your recipe popped up because you can see it better yeah just grab a little binder clip pop it in there easy peasy by the way feel free to screenshot this if you want some really good monster cookies Mary is my aunt and she knows a thing or two about a moist tasty monster cookie and our number six spot next you're gonna grab I guess we'll call this a magazine holder I've seen people use these for storing water bottles which I think I know that's clever I have a Amazon when actually several Amazon ones so that would be great but I found a better alternative that I prefer even more you got all the plastic bags you got the tin foil you got the wax paper you got the things this is a great way to store all those products and then you can easily take it to and fro depending upon where they are housed so these things are housed in my pantry but I often need them in my kitchen so there you have it or if you're packing lunches in the morning you can just pull this out with all your lunch packing accessories and make your morning run a bit smoother I mean you certainly could put magazines and school papers in there that works too I do have one in another room in my house but I actually like this trick better you know number five spot maybe you want to leave your loved one a little note here so we're gonna grab a picture frame but we're again not gonna put a picture in it and then we're gonna grab a dry erase marker you certainly could have some beautiful paper but you want it to be paper that you can see through let's just open up this picture frame I'm actually just gonna flip around what was inside so I have a white surface to begin with and you can see here we close this up I use my dry erase marker and I can put love notes on there you could put it in the entryway of your house you could put it in your laundry room you can make little reminders with this you can totally get creative and as you can see here because it's a dry erase marker it wipes off very quickly oh and a little bonus tip here for you if you accidentally or someone in your house uses Sharpie on this glass surface just use a little rubbing alcohol it should come right off in our number four spot now again we're back in the craft section I'm not a crafty person but we are in this section quite a bit we're gonna grab some of these foam brushes they had several options available I'm going to take a couple foam brushes and just a little bit of rubbing alcohol paired with some water in this spray bottle I'm gonna spray down a couple of these brushes in my kitchen here this vent gets dirty every single week it's like growing hair on it like what is happening so these brushes get in those nooks and crannies very quickly and I love that I use the rubbing alcohol it helps pick up a little bit more of that dirt and grime it also kills any bacteria along the way making it smell oh so good but don't forget about your home in your car those car vents just keep one of these in your console if you're going through the car wash bust out your Dollar Tree sponge brush and you can get all that dust in your car Vents and make it shiny and new you know number three spot yes these are some Dollar Tree scissors I can't find them there anymore I absolutely love them they're my favorite I'm a lefty so yeah I have a lot of problems when it comes to opening and cutting things but now with these ones this E6000 cap often gets stuck now you can put a little vaseline on the cap so it's easier to get on and off that does help but look here if you pinch down with the inside of the scissors this is actually a great way to grip it and open it a fun little hidden function on your scissors for you number two in one of our amazing life hacks when it comes to the Dollar Tree we're heading over to you guessed it the toilet section you're gonna go ahead and grab yourself one of these toilet brushes and no we're not cleaning any toilets today don't you worry about that and hopefully you have a pair of wire cutters on hands some buried in your garage or a utility closet of some sort and you're going to cut one side of this toilet brush and you can see I've made an elongated handle can you guess what we're gonna do with this lucky lucky under here again my refrigerator every week for some reason this girl's hair has a mind of its own what is happening and it often gets missed because I'm not down there crawling around to see what's happening so taking your toilet brush assuming you have not cleaned it in your toilet you're not going to want to do that that goes without saying you can see how this toilet brush the bristles are thick enough to get deep within these vents once you go ahead and get all the initial dust and grime out wipe it down with a microfiber towel and it's gonna look good as new next let's head up to my laundry room probably one of my favorite places in the house you can see here this Dollar Tree one that I have and you can extend this out to whatever length that you need but why spend your money on Amazon when again we have our Dollar Tree toilet brush to get in our dryer and get all of that lint up
