A blow dryer is great for drying and styling your hair, but surely you can use it to work in other ways as well. When the hair dryer makes you look fabulous, consider these uses.
* Take wax off of furniture: Use the slowest, hottest setting to melt the wax. Use a paper towel to remove the wax and then use a clean cloth with dipped in a mixture of equal parts vinegar (or vodka) and water to wipe off the residue. This method could also apply to remove crayon marks from the walls.
* Clean candlesticks: melt the wax slightly and peel it off.
* Blow dust out for hard to reach corners: set your dryer on cool setting, then aim and fire. If the item is large and dusty, hang a damp sheet or towel behind it before you point your blow dryer at it. The dust will stick to the damp cloth. You can also use it to blow dust off of delicate objects.
* Remove a photo from an old photo album: Use a warm setting to loosen the glue from sticky photo pages.
* Defrost a freezer (or melt ice anywhere)
* Iron plastic shower tablecloths or shower curtains: Use warm air to make them wrinkle free.
And for two others, don't forget to check out our previous posts for using a blow dryer to removing labels from bottles, cans or paper and removing the white rings left on your table from hot plates and dishes.
