The fastest way to get rid of stains is Lava soap. Mom had just bought a new blouse for church. They went to eat afterwards. Well, mom had spaghetti. She sprayed her stain remover on blouse (I don't know which brand, I don't used them. and put in washer and dried the blouse with the other clothes. It came out with an oil stain spot on it. A few days later she called me and then she told me about her new blouse. I said bring it here. I wet blouse and rubbed lava soap on both sides and let it sit for 30 minues. Then I rinse it. No oil spot even though it had be washed and dried before the lava soap treatment. My husband's Grandma told me to use this back in the 70s. I got lava soap in cabinet right now. Works better than anything else. Another tip is to get dollar tree regular pain brush the smaller size. Pour toilet bowl cleaner into cup. Dip paint brush and paint the grout. Later on rinse the bathroom wall.
@@Ms.Bytchy I can buy Lava soap at my grocery. I guess its where the demand is. So far lava soap has removed dried up blood, grass, oil, probably on paint too. Hubby painted thing andI use it on anything else I need it for. It is the pummice. I believe that comes from volcanic lava.
On the dawn Power wash you said to use distilled water alcohol and Dawn also you mentioned white were cleaning vinegar but did not say how much of the vinegar
My favorite tip is to use fuzzy socks instead of Swiffer cloths. Those cloth refill packs are so expensive! An inexpensive pair of fuzzy socks can be washed and reused many times saving me a lot of money (and a lot of garbage out of the landfill!) 😊
My wife watches you and your tips and thinks you are so funny and cute when you get excited about cleaning cuz she doesn’t get that excited about cleaning!
Hi my name is Heather Johnson and I watched several of your videos but this is the first time I've ever been able to leave a comment and I am so excited I hope I win the giveaway. It's just so hard to choose one of the hacks as my favorite. I would have to say the laundry bag with snacks in it. Or the sock on your duster. I'm just so excited to be able to leave a message I just had surgery on my left ankle and I've been stuck in my bed but all I want to do now is go to the Dollar tree and input all of these things. I love your sense of humor and your excitement and thank you. Money is super tight for me right now and winning would be a blessing!!!
As a disabled person I enjoy these hacks because often they save me from myself when trying to take on the bigger chores. Hacks to make cleaning easier! Favorite this time was the sock and glove dusting! Thank you!
Yes, I agree. I used to be OCD about cleaning, before being physically assaulted 15 yrs ago at she 42 and not able to move like I used to. These hacks are so helpful! I fo what I can and share with my helpers.
Hi Andrea Jean , I am thankful for all the tips in your videos. I started mixing the spray cleaner a while ago. I have a spray bottle In each bathroom and one in the kitchen. I also keep a dollar tree vase at my sink with cleaner. Why so many? We are dirty people and make big messes. The coolest idea from this video is using floss to cut cake! Who knew? I have recommended your towel folding method to others. My grown son’s even noticed the towels and like it. They actually said so. Your tips are too numerous to mention. Therefore I shall say thank you , thank you, and a million thanks to you! Lisa Clark
My husband asked where my garage was in the Jeep...thanks to ur video I have a new trash that doesn't pull on the shifter!! Thanks soooooo much for sharing this video
Witch Hazel was a go-to in our home for a lot of things, but SUNBURN RELIEF is the BEST! Takes the heat and sting out, and seems to encourage tanning instead of blistering and peeling! It worked for MY fair-skinned Irish family!!!
@@dede71185 apple cider vinegar certainly helps big time!!!!! You walk around smelling like a salad for an hour and you’re done! 🤣🤣🤣 But the Witch Hazel sure did work for me as well!!!!
All of these hacks look good but my favorite is your idea of using hairspray on suction cup hooks so the stick much better on the wall tiles! I'm grateful to you for this tip!
That’s def another i can’t wait to try! we have the same issue with one bathroom, the walls don’t hold suction anything, bc they are like stone, so i’m hopeful this may help!
I really like your idea of a spray bottle with water, rubbing alcohol and dish soap. I'm going to start using that hack everywhere in my apartment. I have used the Dawn from Walmart and I do like that stuff especially for my dishes. Thank you for your ideas and videos. They are definitely helpful.
Love you & your show Andrea! That spunky personality of yours makes your videos fun to watch..😊 I usually watch your uploads in bed..at night... A few giggles as well as those good ideas you bring up take my mind off worries or pressures of the day!..👌 As for dryer sheets I would like to add that those are excellent in closets & drawers & I usually add 2 1/2 of the best smelling ones in my towel cabinet...After a few days the aroma bleeds in the fabric & the whole area smells like opening the door to a Spa! Saves on Essential Oils..😉! I like you.. your creative & have a delightful attitude so keep-it-up & I'll keep on watching!..👍
The back scratcher is wonderful. I keep a retractable one with metal 'claw' in my reusable grocery bags. I'm only 5'2" and I can usually reach the back of the dairy racks and top shelf items without having to ambush a passing taller customer to help. I wrote my name on it so the cashier won't think its store merchandise, but none have yet (so far). I'm 76 and can get cranky about that. Wonderful videos with a sense of humor but practical ideas.
Love the mop handle to unload groceries and the straws for packing necklaces. Actually, I love a lot of your ideas plus you’re hilarious. Love watching your channel!
I loved no.18, the suction cup blinds cord hanger thingy. My cats are constantly playing with and pulling on the cords and have nearly pulled the whole dang blind down in the midst of their psychotic revelry. The suction cup idea is better than tying your cords up in knots trying to keep them off the floor.
Another great use for Dryer Sheets is in you heater vents, especially if they are in the floor! Keeps toys and gunk from falling in and smells good too. Just weave one or two behind slots but Infront of fins.😊
Wow! 😁What a fantastic idea. I lay one of my scented candles in a jar (sideways) over the vent. What an eyesore 🤦♀️ I'm going to get a dryer sheet right now!! Thank you 🙏
I particularly like the sock over the swiffer dry mop as well as the gloves with dusting spray to clean the horizontal blinds. This way surely gets every single speck of dust. LOVE IT!!
I loved all, but my fave was using dollar tree socks as reusable Sw_ffer "mop/ duster" heads! I have to tell you I watch your videos, sometimes, because I love listening to your voice...I dont know what it is?...the way you punctuate words, the way you say, "my friends", your voice just seems so likable, so genuine, so real! Thank you Andrea Jean. I'm a "clean freak and I love finding things at the Dollar Tree that can be used as double duty, triple duty, sometimes even quadruple duty to help clean. And to complete this diatribe my two best friends are named Andrea and Jean!
My favorite was when you showed the 3 cleaners with the ketchup stains. I greatly appreciate your absolute honesty about the performance of all these products. Keep up the great work, Andrea Jean! I love all of your videos and ideas! 🤗💜
Thanks so much for your fun and knowledgeable videos! It’s always fun learning new things and trying them out! I craft daily,and my paintbrushes get very dirty and hard, unless not being put in water. The ash tray idea was such a genius one! I’ll definitely be trying this out and I know for a fact it’s going to simplify things for me! A huge “thank you” for so many wonderful ideas! Wishing you the best always… love your spunky personality btw!!!
I wish the Dollar trees around me had the eye glass holder😢. You are the best Andrea, you have gavin us so much hints, tricks, you test products for us, so much, I've told you before, if you need a house to test clean, mine would be it, I'm disabled so things get dusty, oven dirty. It takes me so long to clean, that's why my #1 trick you showed is using a dollar store broom to clean the tub. I love everything you show us. If you could give us a video on something like to help disabled people. So a big thank you to you. HUGS n KISSES to you~Namcy B🦋
Lot's of great ideas but the one I will definitely try is the rice on the bottom of each compartment of a muffin tray before baking muffins. I'm all about easy cleanup. I think it will also prevent the bottoms of the muffins from burning as well by providing a little bit of space under each liner.
Too many great ideas. Can’t choose just one! Sheet idea is sooo cute! Folding the fitted sheet is my failure in life, just cannot get it folded, those dang corners! I do put my sheets and pillow slip inside a pillow slip and I add a dryer sheet, smells so good!
Oh my goodness! Congratulations on your engagement! I am literally tearing up with you. So looking forward to upcoming wedding videos. Love all your hauls and you definitely deserve all the happiness coming your way ❤
I also like the bed fold and the pillow hack , toilet hack, dish liquid hack, dryer hack, jewelry,dust mop with the socks, baselessly I like all the hacks
I'll start using many of these hacks. I'm choosing the fuzzy sock and glove for swifferring and dusting to help the environment and keep my home clean. 😊
I like the coat hanger hack with a paper towels I've used it myself for years. I also use it for rolled trash bags that I hang inside the pantry so I don't have to deal with the box.
This is the first time I have watched and listened. After the first 'session', I quickly clicked on another. Everyone of your ideas are great! It would be impossible to choose one. You ARE A SUPER STAR! So exuberant and fun as well as funny. I absolutely love your personality. You are adorable. Please accept all these compliments, as they are well deserved. I will be watching and listening...as long as you are here to learn from and enjoy. Thank you, you little energy bunny. hehe GOD bless.
Hi Andrea Jean!!! I absolutely LOVE your fuzzy sock/glove idea! I’ll be implementing that in my home TOMORROW!!!! And will give your mesh laundry bag hacks to my sister for her SEVEN (soon to be NINE!!) grandchildren! I KNOW she’ll love that!!!
I've got a tip for you hon. I use magic eraser a lot so I cut each pad into six pieces and they last so much longer. That way the whole foam pad isn't crumbling.
I love all the hacks, but the paper towel holder hung will be something i will use a lot. You can also use Press and Seal to keep necklaces separated and from tangling when you travel. 😊
I use Press’N’Seal to prevent liquid or gel makeup or other products from leaking out into luggage when traveling. A small piece between the opening and dispenser top, with cap screwd down securely makes anything leak-free even if squeezed!
LOVE the idea of using the craft sponge paint brush to clean your vents and it inspired me to use the same brush to clean the inside rim under the lid of my Instant pot the ALWAYS manages to trap spills and get gross! Thanks for these great ideas Andrea Jean!
My fave will have to be #13 - Using dryer sheets to pick up those rogue dust particles. All of the other methods that I've used always leaved dust behind but using dryer sheets really help.
I love all of the tips in this video, but especially the dusting gloves. Also, I appreciate the cleaning formulas to make our own refills. Thanks so much.
I loved the broom hack for a one trip grocery run. This can really come in handy when you live in an apartment complex and may have to walk far or go multiple stair cases. I really enjoyed this video, you’re amazing!
Absolutely, love the glass bottles with the leaf to put syrup or oil. I was thinking salad dressing. It would make a beautiful presentation on the table with guests
SO MANY GREAT TIPS!!! I've got to replay video with pen and paper at hand to write it down when I'm so impressed with something! The most useful one near the end is the long-handled carrying rod to thread through the shopping bags to reduce trips into the house!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR GREAT TIPS!!!! I LOVE TO HEAR YOU, TOO!!!!
Hey Andrea! I love these hacks! I use a ton of Dawn & Brillo dish spray. Thanks so much for the recipe! Okay, I thought I was the only nut that tried to come up with fancy sheet/pillow case folding. 😉 It honestly relaxes me. I think my favorite is the muffin cup. I live in Northwest Wisconsin and like you, let my car go over the winter. What I can do in less than 60 seconds gets done. What a super idea! I also bake a ton and have never heard of the rice thing. Thank you so much for all your wonderful ideas!!❤
The laundry mesh bag is definitely a brilliant idea. I will use one for snacks and another to store toys for the grandchildren when they ride with me. I loved all the hacks, but my favorite was using those glass containers to store the pancake syrup. I will be at the Dollar store tomorrow morning for sure. Thank you.
Love the tips :). Sharpie marker on packing tape can also be removed with a regular pencil eraser (it’s like magic!), if you don’t have rubbing alcohol on hand.
Andrea, another amazing hacks video! Loved the garden pot roller to use under the Instapot and the backscratcher to grab those pesky items that fall behind freezer door! Thanks so much for taking time to share your time and money saving tips! You’re the best!🥰
Hard to pick a favorite but I love the fuzzy glove/furniture polish hack, the plastic hanger paper towel holder, and the 2-tier tray. I love your household hacks! ❤️
Love your posts. I’m in Canada 🇨🇦 so we don’t have a lot of the items you show including the refrigerated items, but just love your sense of humour as it’s very in tune with mine. Keep up the great work.😊❤
Mommy to 4 Children back in the day, I love your home cleaning hacks, makes me become a hacking pro for my G Noni's Club of 12 Grands. I Love Your Clever Way Of Using The Dollar 🌳 Tree Ashtrays For My Budding 🎨 Artists. I Love Your Idea 4 Easy Way To Hack A Good Smelling Room With Dryer Towels. I Love The Way You Truly Shared A Hack To Filing Your Goodies, Snacks In A Bag For Long Trips. My Top 3 Faves Keep Changing Every Day😂!
I like the coat hanger hack. I use them to store ribbon. I cut the hanger as you did, but I hot glue a pencil cozy to one end. That gives me an opening with a closure. I make several and organize by color, so I can find the right ribbon quickly.
Love the ideas for the glasses thingy (not sure what they are called either). The painter's tape/clear tape label is great - an excellent hack. Dusting with your hands looks like a great workout. Wow, the rice in the muffin pan is such a great idea.
My favorite was the tip to write on clear storage containers. My daughter sells on eBay and uses these boxes to sort categories so now we can easily change things out. LOVE watching you I learn and it’s fun!
Almost forgot, I also love your sheet set folding idea bc it saves room. The Dollar Tree here has those bags that you can use a vacuum cleaner to close. I used them to store all the blankets that I am currently not using and cleared an entire shelf in my closet.
As a grandma with small grandchildren and I most definitely love the zippered laundry bags to hang on the back of the seat so everyone can reach their snacks and Nauna can focus on driving. PS this also works great for holding iPads and our coloring books.
20:31 I love the one ones with the fuzzy socks for the swifter and the gloves for the blinds!! Genius!!! I wish I had your hacks and organization ideas when my 5 kids were little and still living at home. Your ideas are simply brilliant and you’re such a wonderful distraction from the reality of my illness, Thank you! 😊
I love your two tier trays. You did a nice job. Also I like the idea of the syrup in the little containers. I believe those are perfume containers. Great job. Thank you.
I love the packing tape/painter's tape labels. And the plant roller for you Instapot. I prefer to slide my pillowcases inside the sheets before I fold them. That way, they are all together.
I started doing crafts so the astray to hold brushes and the water is awesome! The hanger cut in half to hang paper towels for in my craft room is genius!
I love your simple and creative tips! My two favs are the Dawn pro wash recipe, as I think Dawn is a magic all-things cleaning elixir. And the packing tape hack over labels! I label my craft bins but often times need to change them, and then it's this whole aggravating process, but No More! Thanks to you.😊❤
Hi there Anna Jeannie! Yes your like a Jeannie in a bottle! You make it all happen !!!! I have to say it’s not just one hack!!! I love them all! But the one to put rollers on your Inda pot is Awsome!!! I need to do that with my kitchen-aid mixer!!!!!
