Spray to make arrangements
If you are sick of the mess dried flowers make when your are arranging them or when they shed petals, spray them with hair spray either while you are arranging them or after you are finished. They stay together much longer.
Bag that shot.
By using a sunglasses bag, I can keep my camera in my handbag without it getting scratched. And it is not as bulky as a camera case.
Nice sole collection.
If you don't have extra money to buy a bookcase, purchase a fabric shoe hanger to store your books, CDs and DVDs. It is neat and it will save you heaps of money

Wow thanks for these tips also. I really like the hanging one. I think that would make a great thing to put in your spare closets. I have a game room that has a closet with nothing but board games but this would really make it a lot neater.

Wow, thank you Kathy for some really great tips. I'm not sure my camera would fit into a sunglasses bag but I'm sure I can find something similar. The other two are ideal points to make, as I have both those problems.
Thank you very much, my friend... I shall be putting these into practice. Brightest Blessings.

They are some really great suggestion there, and I do like the shoe hanger idea. I will pass the dried flower suggestion onto my friend as she does alot of dried flower arranging. Thanks for your posting!

Once again those are great tips. My daughter has the fabric shoe hanger in her bathroom for storage of her curling iron, blow dryer, lotions, etc. Then she has one in the baby's room for her socks, and hair ribbons, all those little things.

Great tips kathy77. Especially he one about flowers. I always have flowers in the dining room and I don't like the mess they make all the time when I arrange them. Thanks for sharing these tips!

Good tips kathy. I would suggest that you try the spray on a mall portion of the flowers first because there are some flowers that are very sensitive to just about anything. There is a product called Cloud Nine that helps the flowers retain their water and thus will make your flowers last a lot longer. I researched it when I was in my internship at a nursery. Also put an asprine in the water will help them last longer.
