Most people use nail polish remover to remove nail polish. They use coffee grounds to make coffee and hair dryers to dry their hair. The majority of people may also think that the use of eggs, lemons, mustard, butter, and mayonnaise should be restricted to making delicious food in the kitchen.

These are just a few of the quirky ideas that appear in Unusual Uses for Ordinary Things.Readers of Unusual Uses for Ordinary Things will learn how to:Remove odors from clothes using vodkaShine leather belts, wallets, purses, and jackets using butterRemove scuffs from sneakers using toothpasteLocate small objects once thought to be gone forever using pantyhoseAnd much more! |
