I always love your videos and have followed you for years (Will was a child and you were still married!). In this video, I allow myself to react and provide you with information. 1) When you remove the cord from a charger but leave it plugged in, be aware that you are still using energy. It's small but you consume. 2) Placing cleaning items and towels on top of trash (even dry trash) involves micro transfer. Your towels are “contaminated” by waste. Again, it's tiny but you have to know it. 3) The ideal flower storage temperature depends on the variety of flowers. It can range from 8 to 20° Celcius. It was a florist friend who taught me about it. Also, if you do not have the possibility (or the desire) to take your vase out at night, or the temperatures are much too low or high, simply put 2-3 ice cubes in the vase water over time (I do it every 2 days when I change the water). I wish you a beautiful day and thank you for your inspiring videos. Best wishes.

These are some great tips! One thing though, I was tought that leaving chargers in elektrical sockets is a fire hazard (one of the reasons why it's recommended not to charge your phone while you're sleeping). Maybe things have changed, but just a heads up. I had never heard of putting news papers in smelly things! I am going to try that for sure. I know putting a bowl of (dry) baking soda in there can help. Or a bowl of (unused) coffee (whole beans or ground) and even some (clean!) kitty litter can do the trick! I like that there are so many environmentally friendly options to try. Oof! I know that special drill you need for those '70s homes! My apartment was build in 1975 and all the walls are concrete..! I also love your late mother's trick 💐 Thank you for sharing!

I had been thinking of getting the IKEA pan protectors, but they are never in stock. But thanks to your video, I tried out the cork trivets and they fit perfectly between my frypans. So it motivated me to clean out and reorganise my pot and frypan drawer. Tack så mycket Benita.

I was going to suggest the newspaper for deodorizing if you didn’t show it. I would even suggest that when you close up the summer house for winter you may want to add newspaper to those old closed items. Another thing to remember is that sunshine is a fantastic bleach and deodorizer. Something that holds onto oder can often be freshened by time in the sunshine.

Yes, leaving things open is the best, but sometimes things need to be closed. We have a persistent mouse problem in our storage area so even empty storage bins are left closed while we figure that out. I’ve stuffed those things we closed to make sure mice stay out with newspaper so I don’t have a bigger job later.

For getting smells out - we have a product here in the states called 'Nature's Miracle' - it's for cat/dog potty accidents. It's an enzyme and it works fantastic for its original purpose, but I've used it in many other ways as well. In your situation with your storage chair (which I love by the way), you could just spray some on paper towels/newspaper and let it sit inside the chair - it may just do the trick!

A couple of years ago, I bought a large pine chest and when I got it home, I tried all the things you are suggesting and no matter what I did the smell would not leave, so I donated to a charity and perhaps they could paint it to get the odour out. You really have to take a good sniff at the shops to make sure it does not have an odour, but in all of my many many years of buying antiques, that was a first. I too place trivets between my fry pans and works wonders, no scratches. Thanks for all of the great ideas.

These were all great tips Benita!! I hadn't heard of several of them. I liked the toilet paper tube trick because that's readily available. I don't have to purchase anything extra and it solves the problem. Another tip for smells...charcoal . just a few squares in and they absorb the odors too! Thankyou for a great video!

Bicarb in a bowl will absorb smells like the crushed newspaper. I use bicarb in my kitty litter box and mix in with the kitty litter. It's great and really works ! Thanks Benita love your work

Loved these tips so much! Thank you Benita!! Your content is simply the best. I'll re-watch your older videos and notice tips I've picked up from you that I do all the time. I'll be pulling from this treasure trove a lot. The tip about using recycables as recycling containers - so simple but brilliant! An empty frozen veggie bag -- allows quick, easy trip rather than taking the whole bin out at once. Hello to Bonus, too!!

Great tips. For me, I especially liked your reference to the "cable spaghetti," which made me laugh. So good to just stash them away in a basket. And, duh, how simple and obvious to fold our rubber gloves to catch wet messes. I also noted the great cut and color of your hair, so flattering. I have been needing my own haircut and want it short the way I used to wear it. Love it.

I really appreciate the tip about the flowers definitely will try that. We also use cloth napkins and long ago when our kids lived at home we had four different napkin rings. Everyone's napkin had their own ring so we knew who's was whose and we could reuse until they needed washing.
