Does your home have a septic tank? If so, it’s important to check it periodically to make sure that it is working efficiently. Have the tank pumped and inspected every two to three years. Making sure it’s in good working order will ensure that it isn’t leaking pollutants into the ground and waterways. And every septic tank owner should know: Never flush dental floss, diapers, cigarette butts, paper towels, paint or harsh cleaning products down the drain.

If you use your oven only during the holiday season, now is a good time to give the inside a thorough cleaning. First, avoid using chemical degreasers and sprays to clean your oven; what’s unsafe to breathe should never be used where you prepare food. Just reach for baking soda instead. Make a thick, creamy paste with water, then coat the entire inside of your oven with the mixture. Let it sit for several hours to naturally break down the grime inside, then wipe off with a damp rag.

Have you ever dropped your pressed powder makeup compact, causing the makeup to break into clumps? There’s no need to throw it away -- you can salvage the situation easily. All you have to do is press the powder clumps back into place inside the compact, then pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol inside until it fills up to the top. Gently stir with a small spoon or toothpick until the mixture is smooth, then let it dry for 24 hours so the alcohol has a chance to evaporate. Voila! Good as new.
