]]>Easing Stuck Zippers
Wax paper can be a lifesaver for dealing with stuck zippers on jackets, bags, or even jeans. Simply rub a piece of wax paper along the teeth of the zipper. The wax transfers onto the tracks and acts as a lubricant, easing the sliding motion and reducing squeaks.
Protecting Surfaces While Painting
Wax paper is a great solution for keeping paint off surfaces. Because of its water-resistant properties, wax paper can be used to protect doorknobs, hinges, and hardware during home painting projects. Simply cover these areas with wax paper and secure it with painter’s tape.
Sharpening Garden Tools
Gardeners will appreciate this lesser-known use of wax paper. By using wax paper to clean and sharpen the blades of garden tools, not only do you prolong their life, but you also improve their performance. Rubbing your shears, spades, and other metal tools with wax paper removes dirt and grime and leaves behind a thin layer of wax, which prevents rust and keeps the blades sharp.

]]>Peace Lily
The peace lily is a wonderful option for the bathroom because it loves the shade and requires little light. This plant will bring a tropical feel to your bathroom. Plus, it’s great for air purification, and removing mold spores and toxins.
Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is an ideal plant for decorating and improving the air quality in your bathroom. It thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and doesn’t require a lot of watering, which makes it perfect for this often overlooked space in your home. The succulent leaves are also practical. You can use the gel inside to soothe minor cuts and burns.
Bamboo
For a modern and exotic touch, this is a great option. Bamboo is an incredibly resilient and versatile plant that can grow in low light and high humidity. It can grow in water, making it exceptionally low maintenance. Just change the water every two to three weeks, and you’ll have a thriving plant with minimal effort.

]]>Aloe Vera
This sturdy succulent loves being placed in a well-lit window, where it can soak up as much light as possible. Give it some water about once a week (or once a fortnight in the winter) and provide it with some plant food around once a month and you should have no problems keeping your aloe vera alive.
Spider Plant
The main form of care you may need to provide for your spider plant is removing the many ‘spiderlets’ which your initial plant can produce. These offshoots can stay on the main plant, but if you want a tidier looking plant you may need to cut them off and repot them.
String Of Hearts
These trailing plants can look stunning draped over some shelves or a bookcase. Ensure they get plenty of light and water them around once a week. With this care and attention, your string of hearts should thrive in most indoor environments.
