My name is Judy an Ohio mum of 3 kids and today I’m gonna be sharing with you 10 super useful household products you didn’t know you needed. These are things that help keep my home cleaner, more organized, they make my life easier and you definitely need to know about them. So I hope this gives you some ideas on ways that you can better your home and your lifestyle.
Let’s go ahead and jump right into it.
1 . Wrap drawer organizer
I love finding ways to better organize different drawers and cupboards around my kitchen.
And this drawer needs a lot of work. Let me know down below in the comments if you also have a drawer that’s filled with plastic wrap, aluminum foil and parchment paper. If so, you need one of these organizers. This can hold plastic wrap, foil and wax paper and it actually has the built in slicer. So you can just fill this up with all of your rolls. It has a little magnetic siding so you can just pop that right off. Fill up your organizer and everything looks tidy and clean.
I love that it’s clear so you can see exactly how much of the product you have left. And it’s something that you don’t have to take out of the drawer to use. Since it all functions from the top, you can just open your drawer and use it like that. This can be mounted to a wall or put into a drawer. I have mine in my drawer with the little feet on it so it doesn’t slide around and you can use it really easily. I love that this creates a little station in your kitchen. It doesn’t create more clutter. It actually keeps things tidier and it looks great.
2. Collapsible drying rack
If you have a small kitchen and wash your dishes by hand, you definitely need this collapsible drying rack. This is a full size drying rack that actually collapses down to be completely flat so you can fit it into a drawer. This comes with the collapsible drying rack and this little tray underneath that catches all the water. This is the perfect functional piece for anybody that’s lacking storage space in their kitchen, but needs those necessities to clean their dishes.
Sometimes having a drying rack on your countertop at all times can start to look cluttered and messy. So this is the perfect solution to be able to pull it out from a drawer, hide it away when you need to, and it takes up very minimal space.
3. The Tucker
I think one of the most difficult parts about making your bed is getting on that fitted sheet. If you struggle with fitting your sheet on your bed, lifting your mattress up, getting your fingers stuck inside, you definitely need the tucker. This is just a bed making tool and it really makes making your bed and putting on those bed sheets so easy and quick.
You don’t have to lift your mattress up, a kid could use this, and it definitely saves your fingernails from getting ruined. So I absolutely love this little bed tucker. You can use it with one hand and it just makes making your bed and getting on that fitted sheet so much easier. I even use it to tuck blankets in to really make my bed super tight and secure. So if you wanna make making your bed even easier, you definitely need one of these tuckers.
4. Cupboard lights
If you want to make the inside of your kitchen cabinets look a little bit more elevated and custom, you can actually install these little battery powered stick on motion detector lights. These turn on when the doors open and turn off when the doors are closed. So they really give off a nice glow at night so you can see exactly what you’re looking for. You don’t have to turn on all your kitchen lights. These take little AAA batteries and they have a little stick on backing.
So you can just remove them and move them around as needed. They have an on and off switch and this little magnet control. This is the piece that really controls the light. So you can stick that onto a door when it’s separated from the light, the light turns on. You can stick these on cupboard doors, drawers, or even doors around your home if you need a little extra light here and there. I love the way this looks when the door opens up and it really allows all of your dishes to shine and glow. So if you’re looking to add a little bit of an extra detail to your kitchen that’s renter friendly, this is just the solution for you.
5.Drink dispenser lid
If you’re someone that reaches for a certain beverage every day, maybe you have kids wanting drinks, maybe you’re not strong enough to lift bottles out of the fridge, I found just the solution for you. You can ditch the normal cap and actually install these little electric beverage dispensers. These fit on pretty much any bottle size. They have a silicone lid and they’re battery powered. So you install the two batteries and you have an instant electric beverage dispenser.
You don’t have to take any bottle out of the fridge. You can use it straight from there and there’s no lifting and no spills involved. I love the way this functions. It actually makes it really fun to make a drink and they make a perfect self-service station. Maybe if you’re hosting people, this would be just the solution to really make hosting that much easier.
6. Clip on strainer
If you’re in need of a little strainer for your kitchen, but you don’t want something that’s gonna take up as much space as this, you definitely need this little clip-on silicone strainer. This is the perfect solution for any small kitchen that’s lacking storage space. It clips on to any bowl or pot of any size and turns it into an instant strainer.
You can move this around from bowl to pot and use it as you need. I love a good space saving product and this is definitely it. This takes up very minimal space in your kitchen. It’s not gonna scratch your dishes and you can get rid of the unnecessary bulk and swap it out for something small and slim like this.
7. Tooth paste cap
Now onto a little bathroom hack. If your toothpaste looks something like this and it gets messy and sticky or you might be losing your toothpaste cap, you definitely need to swap it out altogether for this self-closing cap. These are little silicone caps that pop right onto your bottle and they self-close. So they open up when you squeeze the bottle and completely seal off to really keep your toothpaste bottle clean and fresh. No more crusty, hard mess on top of your bottle. You can keep it super clean with these little caps. You can pop these on any of your existing toothpaste bottles and it’s just that little detail that’s gonna help clean up one part of your bathroom.
8. Bag Openers
If you’re packing to-go snacks, lunches, or packing up leftovers, you definitely need these little bag openers. These make it so easy and quick to fill Ziploc bags with ingredients and snacks that you need. They’re perfect for kids as well because it really holds the bag open and definitely eliminates spills and messes. They even fold down completely flat so you can just store them away really easily.
The little clasps just hold the bag tightly so you can load it all up and pack everything you need. It’s pretty much just having an extra set of hands to do half of the work for you. So if you’re busy, you’re packing a bunch of lunches every day, you’re always using little Ziploc bags, you definitely need these little bag openers. They’re gonna save you time and definitely make life that much easier. All right, so that’s it for today’s video.
