Here are more household tips to share! Broken Glass Use a dry cotton ball to pick up little broken pieces of glass - the fibers catch ones you can't see! Name tag If you purchase a new bike for your child, place their picture inside the handle bar before placing the grips on. If the bike is stolen and later recovered, remove the grip and there is your proof who owns the bike. Flexible vacuum To get something out of a heat register or under the fridge add an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your vacuum. It can be bent or flattened to get in narrow openings. Reducing Static Cling Pin a small safety pin to the seam of your slip and you will not have a clingy skirt or dress. Same thing works with slacks that cling when wearing panty hose. Place pin in seam of slacks and -- voila -- static is gone. hope you enjoy them and feel free to share some of yours!

yup but the problem is sometimes glass shatters across a large area then we'd need a lot of cotton to do the job.

ha ha ha ha ha... yeah. I guess it is useful if you know where the glass went. Then again, using the cotton balls will definitely be easier than trying to sweep them up with a broom. Previously, I would sweep sweep sweep to consolidate them to one place, then use the sticky tape to pick up whatever cannot be swept into the pan. The cotton ball would be useful to some extent.
