1. Lighting candles
You have to light a candle, but the wick is too low down in the container. In order not to burn your fingers, use a piece of spaghetti as a lighter.
2. Dust collector
If you have to drill a hole in the wall and you don't want the dust to spread all over the floor, take a postit note, fold it in half and stick it on the wall, positioning it just below where you are going to drill: it will collect all the dust that falls.
3. Banana saver
To prevent your bananas from ripening too quickly, wrap the stalk in a bit of plastic wrap or aluminum foil: this will prevent ethylene from reaching the fruit and making it ripen too quickly.
