Dousing Squeaking Flooring With Baby Powder
When floorboards and the like become squeaky, it can be more than just an annoying sound and cause you to slip or trip more easily. To avoid a potentially serious injury, take your favorite brand of talcum powder and pour it into a small squeeze bottle. Now, begin applying the powder within the gaps in the boards and take a makeup brush for the next step. You can then use this fine-haired brush to insert the powder within the small gaps.

Fix Carpet Nicks With The Frosty Goodness Of Ice Cubes
Place an ice cube within the nicked portions of a carpet and allow it to dissolve into the material. As the carpet will soak up the water, the added moisture will allow the damaged fibers to swell and fit back into place. Now, take a hard-bristled brush and begin sprucing up the parts that are still in bad shape in your carpet after the water dries. Your carpets will look good as new!
