* Using washing liquid to clean your blender
Grubby blender? These little tools see some serious use in winter, from making hearty soups to blitzing cranberry sauce or even mashed potatoes. All that work can leave them looking dirty, so for an easy clean, squirt in some washing liquid and a little warm water and run your blender as normal - making sure to pop the lid on first! Then just give it a rinse.
* Polish leather with toothpaste
If you've got a leather sofa, jacket or shoes that are a bit scuffed, you can buff them up easily with toothpaste. Just make sure you use non-bleaching or non-whitening paste to prevent staining. Rub it in with a soft cloth then rinse off with a damp one.
* Clean brushed stainless steel with baby oil
Remove fingerprints, old food and smudges from your stainless steel pans and appliances with just a drop of baby oil, rubbed in on a square of kitchen roll. It's worth noting that this only works for brushed stainless steel though.
* Remove sofa stains with shaving foam
If your sofa is looking a worse-for-wear, try dabbing a little shaving foam on any stains, leave it to settle, then blot it away to remove the shaving foam – and the stain!
* Odour-blocking balls
Block unpleasant smells from drawers, shoes or bags by filling a coffee filter with baking soda and adding a few drops of your favourite essential oil. Secure it with an elastic band and place it anywhere that needs freshening up!
* Easy keyboard cleaning hack
Easily clean the small nooks and crannies in your keyboard or other small electronics by placing the pointed lid of a squeezy ketchup bottle over the end of a vacuum. It will quickly get rid of any dust or crumbs.
* Use a squeegee to clean up fur
If the vacuum isn’t getting rid of unwanted animal hair, try using a squeegee as an effective solution on the sofa, carpet, or other delicate upholstery!
