He Starts Cutting This Egg Carton In Half. The Reason Is Surprisingly Brilliant!
I don’t know about you, but I love the guy who does these awesome tutorials. His multitude of life hacks really contain useful ideas, and his presentation just makes me laugh out loud. So, for three new practical hacks, all utilizing egg cartons, sit back and enjoy the video below.
His first ingenious idea he calls The FIRE STARTER. Everyone needs help getting the big logs to catch fire, whether it be in a campfire or at home in a fireplace. For me, either kindling wood or store-bought fire starters are the ‘go-to’. Then comes the crumpled newspaper, dirty hands and all, for added fuel. What if all this could be circumvented?
It can! And the CrazyRussianHacker somehow came up with this unusually useful idea, that saves a lot of time. Taking an empty egg carton he stuffs the holes with lint from the dryer, and adds leftover hot wax from a burning candle. Watch what he does next to turn these little gems into fire starters. It’s crazy how well and quickly this works.
Ok, so his next creation which he calls the REFRIGERATOR SPACE-SAVER is truly one of the simplest ideas, that makes you ask yourself why you never thought of this?!! As eggs get used up from the dozen package, he shows you how to reduce it’s size, creating more Frig space, while still storing the remaining eggs. CRAZY SMART!
Last, but not least our CrazyRussianHacker has come up with a really cool MAKE-SHIFT ICE CUBE TRAY. It not only comes in handy when the automatic ice-cube maker freezes up or breaks, but it simply is a way of making cool shaped ice cubes. He does this with empty well-washed egg-carton trays. It’s also a great solution for transporting cubes in a cooler and just tossing the disposable tray.
Sit back and enjoy his tutorial!

She Breaks Her Window Blinds Purposely. But What She Creates Is An Unexpected STUNNING Surprise!
Many people love decorating their houses and making it as cozy and comfortable as can be. Interior design is hugely popular and many retail stores are dedicated to the art of interior decorating. They offer everything from rugs, mugs, and vases to the kitchen sink.
However, many of the items found in stores are expensive and only available in limited styles. This is especially true when it comes to window coverings and blinds. While the options run from basic to fancy, the cost increases exponentially as you move up from mini blinds to silk curtains or cedar paneled shades.
If you want gorgeous, custom made window coverings it’s going to cost you, unless you make them yourself! The folks at Better Homes and Gardens made this easy to follow tutorial on how to turn basic mini blinds into beautiful roman shades.
It’s a much more affordable alternative to ordering custom ones and all it requires is a few things that you likely already have on hand. Those items are; white faux wood blinds, thick upholstery fabric, mod podge and a small container for it, a foam brush, pencil, scissors, clothespins, tape measure, and an iron.
Measure how long the blinds need to be before you begin, then lay them on a flat surface facing down. Extend them out to the desired length and cut away the string that connects all of the slats, aka the ladder string, on both sides. Be very careful to avoid cutting the single, thicker cord that moves the shades up and down, because you’re going to need it.
Each slat is going to be 7 inches apart, to figure out how many slats you’ll need simply take the length of the window in inches and divide it by 7, then snap off any extra slats you don’t need. Next, take the fabric and lay it on a flat surface, place the blinds atop it and evenly space out the remaining slats.
Use the tape measure to ensure that they’re approximately 7 inches apart, this way the blinds will fold up neat and evenly.Measure the fabric so that it extends 2 inches beyond the edge of the slats and 2 inches beyond the top and bottom as well.
If you need to, iron the edges so that the fabric will form a more even hem. Make sure that the blind operation, the part where the strings come out of the top and extend down from, is placed on the back of the fabric. Remove the stopper, located at the end of the top bracket, and use a pair of scissors to cut a notch in the fabric so that it’ll wrap neatly around that end.
Break out the foam brush and use it to apply a coat of mod podge to both the end of the bracket and the fabric. Wrap the piece of glued fabric around the top of the bracket, press it down firmly and secure it with clothespins while it dries.
Moving down each side, apply glue to the end of each slat and the fabric portion that extends out beyond it, then fold the fabric over and onto the end of the slat and secure with more clothespins. At the bottom of the blinds take the fabric and roll it over so that it forms a clean edge. Brush the bottom bar with mod podge and glue the fabric into place, securing it with clothespins.
Allow the glue to dry completely before removing all the clothespins, and at that point they’re ready to be hung. The shades will still be operational like normal mini blinds, but a lot more appealing and better looking. Plus, things won’t get snagged or hung up in them, (like cat paws!). Best of all, they can be customized to your exact tastes at a fraction of the cost of what you’d end up paying retail.
If you want to give your house or just one room an instant upgrade, try this out!

The Easiest Way To Remove Dark Under Eye Circles For Good With Only One Ingredient!
Dark under eye circles are a beauty issue for many women and men. The unsightly blemishes are commonly seen as a sign of fatigue and lack of sleep but there are a number of other possible causes. They may first appear in childhood and this could point to them being inherited.
Dark circles have also been attributed to allergies and nasal congestion which dilates certain blood vessels around the eyes and causes them to darken. Other possibilities include stress, anemia, oversleeping, eczema, crying, too much salt in ones diet, aging, and excessive drinking, smoking, or sun exposure.
In addition, they may also be a symptom of a more serious condition, such as liver disease or hypothyroidism. Many products and treatments have been touted as effective at making dark under eye circles go away. However, most of them are ineffective and don’t really do anything and some may even damage the fragile skin under our eyes.
If you want to try an affordable, simple, all natural way to eliminate dark circles then try this at home remedy. All you need is baking soda, hot water or tea, and a few cotton pads. Take a glass of either tea or hot water and mix in well one teaspoon of baking soda.
Then soak two cotton pads in the solution and gently place them under your eyes for a total of 15 minutes. After you remove the pads wash your face and finish up with an application of moisturizer. Baking soda has been used in a number of at home beauty and personal care treatments.
It also works well to both clean and help fade scars caused by acne. The recipe and directions for an exfoliating baking soda acne scrub are as follows. Combine one teaspoon of baking soda and a drop of water on a plate and mix it up well.
You do not want to add too much water so slowly add one drop at a time, adding more if needed, until it has the consistency of a paste and not a runny liquid. Gently massage the mixture onto your face and let it sit for a couple of minutes or until it hardens, then wash your face well.
Over time this solution should fade any scars as it gently cleans your pores and skin. It can be applied nightly before bed and many people have reported that this is helpful and works! Baking soda works well at cleaning because it is effective at regulating pH since it’s not overly acidic or too alkaline, rather it falls right in the middle.
Thus, when it interacts with things that are either acidic or alkaline it naturally reacts to neutralize them. This is what makes baking soda so great at combating acidic odors that make our fridges smell. It also works well to maintain balanced, neutral pH levels and when it’s added to water and applied to things it serves to make stuff even more clean.
Best of all it’s extremely affordable, natural, and it doesn’t harm the environment like most of the ingredients that are found in beauty products do. Try one of these applications tonight before bed and see the results for yourself!

She Starts Drawing A Line Down Her Temple. But When She’s Done An Unexpected Surprise!
These days even the skimpy, cheap, mass produced costumes are extremely overpriced. Then you have to pay extra for accessories, makeup, and all the cool little things that make it special. It’s easier to get a little creative and make your own unique outfit that you can tailor to meet your size, needs, wishes, and desires.
One of the easiest ways to create an affordable look that really stands out is by doing some crazy, awesome, freaky makeup. Once you see this tutorial you’ll get what I’m talking about, and you may even be inspired to try it yourself.
The freaky Halloween look in this video was pulled off by Promise Phan. She is an artist who creates awesome and inspirational looks with makeup and teaches viewers how to recreate the looks on her YouTube channel. She always includes a list of all the products she uses in each tutorial and goes over the key essentials to achieving the best results.
In this video she shows viewers how to make what she calls a ‘face in a face’ look. She draws a second face on the side of her face, and when it’s all done it turns out looking really freaky….Which makes it perfect for Halloween!
While it may look hard to recreate, it’s really not all that difficult. As long as you take your time and have some basic drawing skills, you should be able to pull it off. However, it’s always easier to have someone else draw the face on with a steady hand.
Plus, if they are more artistic than you it will look all the more better. If you do decide to try it yourself, Promise recommends that you take a lot of small breaks because it’s very straining on your eyes. Shading and contouring with the correct colors is what makes this look all the more realistic.
You want to copy the depth, curves, and shades of your face to make the side-face match up and look symmetrical as possible. If you follow along to her lead you can pull off this trippy look, and really freak a lot of unsuspecting people out.
So instead of wasting a lot of money on some costume you’ll likely wear only once, spend a little on some face paint and get out your makeup and go to town!
