There is always a wood working project or a radio-controlled airplane build going on in my family so one thing you will always find, either in the garage or the Hobby Room, is sandpaper. What I didn't realize is that it had so many more uses than just sanding down rough edges.
Next time you have a small piece of fine grit sandpaper that you think should go in the trash, tuck it away in your sewing box instead. Poking your sewing needles through sandpaper a few times or twisting them between a folded piece of sandpaper will sharpen them in seconds..
You can also remove those annoying fuzzy pills from your sweaters. Use any grit size sandpaper and rub lightly in one direction until they are all gone. One thing I can't wait to try is using a piece of sandpaper as a jar opener for better grip. Why didn't I think of that?
