It’s hard to cut eggs on your own because they constantly break into little pieces. In this case, housewives use special egg cutters, but even if you have this contraption, you need to cut every single egg separately. But in order to cut all the eggs at the same time, you just need to use a grill.

3
If you light candles in cups full of coffee beans, the beans will heat up and create a subtle coffee smell.

You can make a romantic dinner even if you don’t have any candle holders in your house. If the candles can stand on their own, you can use silicon molds: they will protect the table from wax stains. By the way, the wax doesn’t stick to the molds, so it will be easy to wash them after.

Do you still throw the little paper bags from shoe boxes away? It’s probably because you don’t know about their cool features. For example, if you put these bags near the windshield in your car, they can stop it from getting foggy. It’s because they contain small pieces of silica gel that absorb moisture very well.

12
If you bought 2 frozen pizzas, there is an easy way to cook both of them at once. Just cut both of them in halves and place them on the oven shelf as shown in the photo above.

13
There are many ways to use binder clips. Here is one of them: attach one big clip to your fridge shelf and place a bottle or a can next to it. You can even make a pyramid and the cans won’t roll.

In order to heat up 2 bowls of food quickly, put one of the bowls on top of a mug, so that the 2 bowls fit together. As it turns out, you don’t even need a huge microwave to be able to do this.

Nobody has come up with a better idea for keeping hairpins than whoever came up with a tic tac pack. This plastic box will always keep your hairpins safe. It’s also really easy to get them out of there.

Cardboard boxes from tissues can also be given a second life. For example, they are great place to store plastic bags and you can use different boxes for different kinds of bags.

17
Looking for the end of clear packing tape is probably one of the most irritating things in the world. To avoid having to do this, just put a paper clip on the end the next time you use it. This way, you won’t have to break your fingers trying to peel the tape.
