If you have been using your hairdryer just to shape and dry your tresses then let us tell you that there are tons of other tasks for which you can use this easy-to-use appliance. A hairdryer can solve many problems which you must be facing at your home, such as for expanding sunglasses or shoes a bit, quickly drying nail paint, curling hair or even cleaning a few complicated items. Not only knowing a few handy hacks can save your time, but it can keep you from wasting money on buying other smaller appliances to do simple chores. So, let’s quickly learn some creative ways you can use your hairdryer.
Ironing Clothes
Start by spraying water on the piece of cloth you want to iron. The purpose is to damp it and not making it too wet. Turn on the blow dryer in the lowest heat setting, as too much heat can damage the fabric, especially the delicate ones. Hang the wrinkled clothing. Now, hold the appliance at a distance, about 2-3 inches away and direct the heat on the cloth. Move the dryer in the vertical motions to remove the wrinkles. Do until the piece is completely dry. Blowdry ironing works best for cotton and satin fabrics. You can also use this hack at your workplace in case you crumple your shirt or skirts.
Clean Keyboards
Believe it or not, keyboards tend to get extremely dirty if you are in the habit of eating around it. Other than the food, some outdoor impurities also go inside of the board, making it a hub of dirt. To many people cleaning the keyboard may appear extremely tricky, but with blowdryer by your side, you need not worry. Turn on the dryer on the cool setting. Now, turn t upside down and blow the air up into it. To protect the dryer from dirt particles, apply a tissue paper on the back. It will collect impurities in one place and will also save the dryer from facing any damage.
Shrink Wrap Hampers
A well-wrapped gift hamper increases the excitement quotient of the receiver. Instead of gift wraps, a clear wrap looks far better and classic. If you also want to shrink wrap presents all you need to do is organise the item inside the basket or container.
Measure the shrink wrap before cutting it. The wrap must cover the basket completely, not just the upper portion. Now, tape the ends to the basket. Turn on the dryer on maximum heat and blowdry the wrap from the outside. The wrap will start shrinking. Do not run the dryer on tapes, otherwise, the adhesive will melt.
