I did not know half of these! Thanks Arielle!!!
Oh! My. These are great.
Thanks Arielle very useful!
Great article! Also if you want to shrink the waistband of your jeans Mix 3/4 cup hot water with 1/4 cup fabric softener, pour the mixture in a spray bottle. Cover the entire area you want to shrink with the mixture, and then dry on the highest heat setting. (Similar to boiling the jeans to shrink them)
Nice! thank you for the tip!
