Works for Me Wednesday

Have you ever owned a shirt where the pocket or collar wouldn't stay down? I have this lovely brown striped shirt that a friend gave me but the pockets stay flipped up, even straight out of the dryer. Mr. Steady suggested I iron the shirt but I say peshaw, who irons? Especially when they make glue dots. Besides, this is Works for ME Wednesday. If ironing works for you, go with it.

I may or may not have done this on the way to church. I'm not telling. Either way, one glue dot placed strategically under each corner will do a right fine job until you can tack the pocket down. Or until you wear the shirt the next time when you'll apply a new set of glue dots. Whichev.

Are my glue dots showing? Don't forget to take the glue dots off before laundering.

Works for Me Wednesday

I don't believe I've ever participated in Works for Me Wednesday but I keep wanting to share this with you.

I bought this four cup muffin cup at a garage sale several years ago without nary a purpose in mind. However, I quickly realized that all of those odds and ends of good smelling candles could fit in there. I don't have a fancy electric wax burner so I put plain wax in my muffin tin and whenever we're done using our stove we place the muffin tin on the turned-off-but-still-very-hot burner. The wax quickly melts and the smell soon permeates the house.

Right now I have a collection of chocolate, vanilla and caramel in there but I am thinking I'll pop these out (just place in the freezer for a few hours) and replace it with Mr. Steady's favorite Butterscotch Brulee from The Candle House.
