Isn't it great that there are so many intelligent human beings who have a passion for inventing things to make lives better?
We are waaaay past the Stone Age or the Renaissance period so we may not have a 'rock-my-world' kind of invention anymore. And we do tend to take new things for granted now... because things change so fast and life is overly complicated. So, many of the good stuff go unnoticed.
Anyway, I do have a list of awesome stuff that are extremely useful to my boring life. While I can still imagine life without them, I am still raving the fact that they exist and are very affordable to common people like me.
The 3M Command
3M describes it as "Damage-Free Hanging Solutions". And yes, it is true to its promise. The secret is actually the sticky mounting strips and a user who is willing to follow the instructions carefully.
Our home is filled with it -- for picture frame hanging, hooks, even bathroom stuff.
It can be a bit pricey but your walls are kept intact and bathroom tiles are not damaged. If you do have heavy paintings to attach to the walls -- still best to do it the old way though.
Colored Printers, Photo Papers
At this day and age when a kid's homework involves the use of too many visuals, I am so thankful for printers and photo papers... add on the digital cameras and Google. We do not need to scramble through numerous magazines (cutting them would be heartbreaking, too), rush to a nearby Photo ID shop, or rummage the old cabinet for old photo albums.
The Bra Strap Extensions
I know this is old stuff but has been a very useful bit while pregnancy. For a mere Php50 (price of each one), I was able to manage additional pregnancy girth with this sweet little thing.
The Epilator
This is one of the best advices (if not the best) my sister has ever told me.
Gone are the days of spending too much time plucking. Gone are the days of hair ingrown and chicken skin underarm.
Hello to quick and easy hair pulling. And the best part is... hair grows back thinner!
Why didn't I find out about you years back?!
Ladies, if you don't have one... get one!
I do have some more in my list. But these are my favorites. Whoever invented them, thank you so much. You all made things easy indeed.
