4. Clean your showerhead without any effort The easiest way to clean plaque and other buildup in your shower head is to grab a ziploc bag, fill it half-way with strong vinegar, wrap it around the showerhead, making sure it is submerged all the way in the vinegar, and let it sit there for the night. Don’t forget to flush the shower once you’re done. |

5. Power-scrub your shower or bath No one likes scrubbing tiles and bathtubs, so grab a drill, attach a scrubber to the tip, and scrub away without putting in too much elbow grease. |

7. Defog your mirror If you like shaving in the shower, but your mirror gets too foggy – use shaving cream and spread it over the mirror’s surface, then wipe it off. No more fogginess. |

9. Keep nail clippings stationary Hate it when these darn things fly around? Clip them after the shower – they’ll be softer and won’t fly off. |

10. Sharpen your razor If your razor blades are dull and you can’t get a new one, run it a few times on an old pair of jeans to hone the edges. |

11. No more shaving cream rust If you hate the rust stains shaving cream dispensers leave in your shower after a while, store them on their heads (it’s made of plastic and won’t stain). |

12. Reading in the bath If you love reading in the bath, but are worried your e-reader (Nook/Kindle) will get wet – seal it in a ziplock bag. Make sure you get all the air out, and you can enjoy your new books in peace. |

13. Better Volume If you use your phone to play music while you’re in the shower, you can place it in the sink for volume amplification. The sink will serve as a loudspeaker, allowing you to enjoy your music. |

14. Organize your bobby pins Stick a magnet strip to the inside of your cabinet door and use it to keep all your bobby pins in one place. |

15. No more auto flushing If you hate it when public toilets flush automatically, especially while you’re still using them, then use a piece of toilet paper to cover the proximity sensor. The mechanism will think you’re still there, and you won’t be interrupted by constant flushing. |
