How to Divide Serger Thread with an Egg Beater


      When I got the serger machine, I was really happy. However, my happiness faded away when I realized that I had to buy a bunch of thread with the same color. However, I did not give up because I am a person, who causes the economy down as my friends usually said. 
      Yep, there is an abundant hand mixer on the self. It is old, and its attachments were all rusted. However, it still works. I use this hand mixer and cardboard tubes to divide my thread into more spools. Let's watch the video to know how to do it, and enjoy!

How to remove sticky labels on the glass bottles easily (Baking sodaand oil)?


It is like a pain in a neck when you want to remove the sticky labels on the glass bottles. So do I. I was struggling to take those labels out of my bottles because I can recycle them instead of throwing them away.
I tried many tips, such as pouring hot water into the bottle and setting it aside for a while. Then, it is still staying there. After that, I tried to scrub them by using vinegar, and  I could smell vinegar everywhere in my house. 
Finally, I came up with the idea, using oil and baking soda to remove the sticky labels. It really worked, but I have to warn you that you will really use a lot of dish soap when you wash the oil on the bottles after you removed the sticky labels. Thanks, MNN for sharing the tip.
I did the same way that MNN tell.
