What lifehacks have you adopted into your life?

The kind you see on a buzzfeed article or reddit.

Well I saved time and stress by never bothering with those articles which only make really simple stuff seem hideously complicated, so there is that.

I use binder clips to hold cords. It is so awesome to not have to grope around on the floor for your phone charger.

Like this.

Cut through a toilet paper roll. Wrap it around a roller up poster or wrapping paper. It will stay rolled up neatly. It's really nice.

For a quick heating pad, get a sock and fill it up with rice. Tie a knot in the hole end. Put the sock with the rice inside of another sock, hole end first. Put it in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Heating pad!

I definitely adopted the whole "use a staple-remover to get keys on and off keyrings." Ruining my nails no more!

The "turn all your hangers around at the beginning of the month, turn them back around when you wear the clothing so you know what you actually wear" one has been SUPER helpful. Most of the articles I see recommending this say to throw out whatever you don't wear after a month, but I usually do it in more like 6 month increments so that way I can get a feel across hot and cold weather.

It's been legit helpful because for the longest time I kept saying "Oh, I should keep these three navy v-neck sweaters because you never know when you'll need one!" and then I had hard proof that I never needed them.

what do you mean by 'turn them around'? The way i'm thinking, i'm just likely to say 'oh look clothes facing a different direction'

I do something similar as anon, so what I assume they mean by that is when you hang your things up on hangers, put all the hangers in your closet backwards.

As you use your clothing, you put the hangers/clothes that you use in the closet in right way around. At the end of the month/season, you take a look at what is STILL hung up backwards and get rid of it, since you don't use it.

This picture (found on Google) shows what I mean. The backwards ones would be the ones you haven't used at the end of your month/season/length of time.

When I did, I would physically put the hangers in a different direction. I'd start by hanging them all in the opposite direction and as I put clothes back, I'd hang it the normal way, if that makes any sense.

I make my bed every day. This results in some surprised looks when people arrive unexpectedly and have to go into a bedroom for some reason. It's awesome.

Over the door shoe organizer in the kitchen to store all my plastic tumblers and cups with lids and water bottles. It's fantastic, I can see all of them and grab one easily. And it wasn't something that took tons of time or supplies.
