Aluminum foil is a common household item mostly used for wrapping food before it’s refrigerated. People also use it for wrapping school lunches and picnic sandwiches. But, aluminum foil can also be used in a number of other, less familiar ways, outside the kitchen.
Read on and find out how to save money and make your life easier by using silver foil for everyday house chores.
1# Make ironing easier

This is one of the best home tricks you can come across. The thing is aluminum foil can significantly reduce the time you spend ironing if you place it along the ironing board before you start ironing. In this way you won’t have to iron both sides of your clothes as silver foil will reflect the heat thus both sides will end up ironed. This method will reduce the time you spend ironing time by half.
2# Keep freshly baked bread warm and tasty
Aluminum foil is the one thing you need to keep your freshly baked bread warm and tasty. It’s ideal when organizing some picnic time or a camping trip. What you do is first wrap the bread in some paper napkins to absorb the moisture and then in aluminum foil to reflect the heat back into the bread thus keeping it fresh and warn longer.
3# Keep paints fresh and use them more than once
Once you open a tin of paint, its shelf life becomes much shorter. The paint dries out easily and it often becomes useless before you can use it for the second time. Aluminum foil comes to the rescue again. Start by cutting out a circle of the foil. Make sure it’s the same size as the tin top. Place the foil piece on top of the paint surface. Then blow into the tin to get some oxygen inside and close the lid. This method will extend the shelf life of the paint and you’ll be able to use it all up.
4# Sharpen your blunt scissors

If your old scissors are dulled, this simple trick is the thing you need. Take a strip of aluminum foil and fold it length-ways several times so as to get a thick strip. Then start cutting the strip. By doing so, the foil will grind against the scissors sharpening them with every cut you make.
