Hope this little tip proves to be useful to you on your next bathroom renovation!
Salting only takes 20 seconds though, so it’s worth a shot if you’ve got a walkway that looks like mine.. Where we live, the climate is quite humid, so the salt really clumped up and stuck exactly where I put it, but if it’s dryer where you are, you may want to sprinkle the ground with some water first so the salt doesn’t blow away.. Something else you should know: This salt trick is a little controversial in the organic gardening world according to my reading.If you over-salt your yard, then you risk the salt leaching into the ecosystem and harming all kinds of plants, animals, and water systems.
My thinking is this: Harmful chemical weed killers do that anyway, but they’re also harmful to you.At least you know that salt is safe for your family.Use the smallest amount of salt possible.
Start with just a pinch at the base of the plant on a sunny day and see what happens.. Never salt in an area where you hope to have things grow in the future!That’s why it’s also a weed preventer.
Nothing will grow again for at least a little while in the areas where you’ve used salt.
It’s perfect for those driveway cracks and pathways like mine..Just a small amount of cold water will do.. We’re going to melt that wax out!.
Stir it around a little with a butter knife or something to ensure all the wax gets melted.. Pour all that melted wax mixed with hot water out and into the bowl of cold water..It separates really easily so if you don’t have a strainer to use for this, don’t worry, a spoon will work just fine.. Just a few seconds of work and your jar is perfectly clean!
Bonus: Your kitchen will smell amazing instantly if it was a scented candle.. Peel the label off and clean your jar as usual.Now wasn’t that easy?
