To help you whittle down what clothes you should keep or get rid of, try this great trick! Put all your clothes on backwards hangers in the closet. Then, whenever you wear something and put it back it, turn the hanger the right way. After a few weeks, the clothes that are still on backwards hangers are the ones you don’t wear. You can now get rid of them without worrying about if you wear them or not!

I love finding coupons and good deals on things I buy, but I almost always forget to take the coupons with me or use them. A great hack is to wrap your credit card or store card with the coupon so that you bring it with you and, when you go to check out, the coupon is right there!

Another great tip for your phone is to use a cup as a quick speaker. It’s not as good as an actual speaker, but it’s definitely cheaper and works pretty well. Just stick the phone in the cup and you should be good to go!

If you bought a pair of shoes that you need to break in fast, try this. Put on multiple pairs of thin socks or a pair of thick socks, whatever you have. Then put the shoes on and blow dry them for about ten minutes. Let them cool and the shoes will be perfectly broken in!

If you travel a lot, then this is definitely a tip you’ll want to follow. Tie a bright piece of fabric to your luggage. That way, when it comes onto the baggage claim, you can know for sure it’s your bag without having to checking. SO much easier than looking around for your luggage tag!

Day three hundred and fourty eight of my project 365. This is Kirsty's bag! She came down to Portsmouth today and I handed in my last piece of work in the morning! It was so hectic! I was going to wait for the plumber to come round and fix the boiler in the morning, but in the end he never turned up so I had to rush around town unshowered, getting my essay that I'd finished yesterday binded and handing it in early! After that I rushed back home to have a cold shower and clean up the house before going to the train station to pick Kirsty up! The boiler was fixed by the time we got back and we had a lovely evening with a curry. As you can see though, I didn't have much time to take a photo!

To freshen up a stinky house quickly, stick a bunch of dryer sheets on the back of a fan and turn it on. The suction will keep the dryer sheets in place and it will also blow a fresh clean smell into the house!
