Household Items...

So, I've seen this in Real Simple, but let's do a posting about common household items that we've found an uncommon use for!

Here's mine:

Shoelaces
Yes, they are a fantastic way to keep your shoes on your feet. But did you know they also make great barette and hairclip holders? I've got one tied up near my "getting-ready" mirror, and I can just clip them all up on there for easy access. I suppose a ribbon might work also, but the shoelace has a nice fluffy traction to it that can't be beat. It's so much better than digging around at the bottom of some toiletry bag, or drawer because they're all in plain view.
