Used cooking oil can be a conundrum for home cooks: You can't pour it down the drain without it clogging, and tossing it in the trash can mean almost endless wads of soaked paper towels. Here's one way to get rid of cooking oil: Use it to kill pesky weeds. Pouring cooled oil where weeds proliferate will not only kill them, but the oil prevents them from coming back. And because it’s a vegetable-based oil, it’s biodegradable and perfectly fine to pour into the soil.

Stuck with leftover bubble wrap? Sure, you can reuse it when you ship fragile items in the mail, but there are also myriad uses for it around the house. Line refrigerator drawers to help cushion fruits and vegetables so they don’t bruise and spoil quickly. Line reusable shopping bags with bubble wrap to help create insulation that will keep frozen foods cold as you bring them home from the store. You can also protect plants from frost by wrapping them with bubble wrap; it’ll act as a mini greenhouse to keep your plants protected until you can bring them inside.

There’s one simple ingredient in your pantry that can leave your face glowing and baby-soft: honey. The natural sugars in honey are powerful ingredients that help hydrate your skin and reduce flaky dry skin even after you’ve washed the honey off. And it’s easy to use: Just mix a spoonful of honey and a little warm water (to make it less sticky) and slather it on your face. Let the honey mask sit for a few minutes and rinse it off. You’ll be amazed at how amazing your skin will look with this simple beauty trick.
