Handy things you can do with silicone bags

Do you know it? You ordered something on Net-a-Porter.com, bought new shoes or you receive a package with beauty products sent to you Then you always find one or two small bags with silicone balls in them that you probably immediately ungratefully toss in the trash. Don't do that anymore. This Martha Stewart will tell you why.. Ideal against odors in shoes.

Of course, you don't suffer from smelly feet. But just in case the leather has become a bit damp on a warm, muggy day, you put a small bag in the toe of your shoe. It absorbs all the moisture and accompanying odors. Any accompanying odors I mean, of course.

In your toiletry bag.

You leave your hotel room and quickly brush your teeth before checking out. That wet brush now has to go in your toiletry bag. Not nice. Here comes this little friend that can absorb four times its weight in moisture. Problem solved.

With your silver.

Okay, I understand that if you have very nice table silver, you prefer not to stash it away in a plastic bag. But if you want to keep your silver nice, you need to store it as moisture-free as possible and in an environment with as little oxygen as possible. For example, if you have nice underplates that you only use occasionally, store them in plastic bags with a bag of silicone balls included.

Between the old books.

Do you know that musty smell that often hangs in old houses? That's moisture. Often the moisture especially seeps into the old books you find there, and thus the smell spreads further. You can see it coming; hide some bags between and behind books and you're done.

makeup bag stays dry and crispy , even if some perfume accidentally drips out of your bottle. Oh yes, and if you want to dry flowers, the bags are also a solution. Place the flowers without water in a vase with some bags included and the drying process goes much faster. stays, In short, don't throw them away anymore, but use those bags.

Good luck with it. Your Martha.
