Sharpen your scissors
Aluminum foil is actually great to get your scissors back in tip-top shape. Take a piece of aluminum foil, fold it in several layers, and cut it.
Cut down ironing time
Get rid of wrinkles by putting a piece of aluminum foil underneath your ironing board cover. This will help to reflect heat, smoothing wrinkles in a fraction of a time.
Remove static from clothes
Make two or three balls of aluminum foil about two to three inches in diameter, and place them in the dryer with your clothes.
Catch ice cream cone drips
Wrap the bottom of the cone with a piece of aluminum foil.
Protect your vegetable garden
Add strips of aluminum foil to your garden mulch. The shiny surface of the foil will reflect light onto your plants. It is also believed to act as a deterrent for a variety of pests and other garden intruders.
Make a perfect pie
Use aluminum foil to keep the edges of your homemade pie from burning.
Soften up brown sugar
Chip off a piece of hardened brown sugar, wrap it in aluminum foil and bake at 350F. Check every few minutes until it’s soft. This will help them break apart.
Line ‘paint roller’ pans
Lining them will make cleanup a breeze. Once you are finished painting, all you need to do is remove and discard the aluminum foil, then rinse the pan.
Keep bread and dinner rolls warm
Keep your bread warm and fresh by wrapping them in a napkin and placing a layer of aluminum foil underneath.
Create a custom-shaped cake mold
Form the foil into your desired shape and place it inside the baking pan. Pour in your cake batter and bake as usual.
Create a makeshift funnel
Take a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, fold it in half, and shape it into a cone.
Re-attach a vinyl floor tile
Lay a piece of aluminum foil over the tile, and warm it up with an iron on medium heat. This will soften the adhesive and make the tile more flexible.
