By Robin Salvador @vinzsalvador23

I didn't know I could use the jacket railing for more than one purpose! Well not just that, you can embed hacks in everything you do and make life much simpler. Let's start by letting you know what a hack is.

A hack is anything that makes your life a ton simpler especially because it is a creative solution and is devised from an unexpected item.

Several household items can be turned into hacks that can make our lives much more simpler. Here are a few brilliant home hacks that you should be aware of:

    Re-purpose Your Old Gloves

You must be having a pair or two of old work gloves that you are willing to dispose of anytime soon. But wait, you can instead use them creatively by cutting off the glove fingers and using them as covers for tips of tools such as chisels and pliers.

Furthermore, you can also use them for softening the grip of several other rough tools,

    Use Old Door Knobs As Towel Hangers

Think twice before throwing away those old door knobs because they could come in handy. You can use them as towel hangers in the washroom especially if you are short of towel hanger hooks.

Not only will they add value to the space, but they will also look stylish.

    Use Picture Frames As a Memo Board

Never forget an errand with an eye-catching DIY board. You can frame an attractive fabric or wallpaper then with the aid of a dry erase marker, write down reminders.

Additionally, you could also attach a marker to the frame to make it easier for you to use it.

    Convert a Step ladder Into a Bedside Table

If you are the minimalist type, this may work well for you. You can use a step ladder as a night stand that can hold all bare essentials such as your smartphone, water and a lamp.

    Picture Frame for Creative Key holding

If you want both an organized and creative key holder, then look no further than a picture frame. Not only will framed hooks on a picture frame keep your keys in place, they will also add a decorative element and charm to the place.

    Tension Rod For Hanging Cleaning Products

You can use a tension for several purposes in different places to hang up the most frequently used items on your home. For example you can install a tension rod in the cupboard or in the bathroom sink and hang your most often used items such as gloves and sprayers there.

    Use an Iron to Clean Carpet Stains

Carpet stains should not be an issue anymore since you have a flat iron at home. After vacuuming the carpets, you can dampen spots with a moist towel dipped in some vinegar and water and use the iron to heat the stained spot. Continue doing this until all the stains have been lifted and the spot is clean.
