Remove a dent in a carpet

Have the legs of heavy furniture left dents in your carpet?

Don't worry! The dents can be removed with incredible ease.

To do this, simply place one ice cube on each problem area.

Soon the cubes will begin to melt. Thanks to the gradually appearing liquid, the pile will begin to become soft.

Next, you will need to remove the water with a cloth. In addition, you will need to "go over" the treated areas with a brush. As a result, the carpet will start to look like new.

Smooth out wrinkled clothes

Shirts are still wrinkled after washing, but you don’t have time to use an iron?

Take ice cubes, wrap them in a cloth and begin to gently smooth out your wardrobe items with the resulting device.

Reheat food properly

Want to reheat yesterday's side dish, but are afraid that the cereal or pasta will dry out in the microwave?

Then put an ice cube on the dish. After that, feel free to put the plate with the food in the microwave.

A reheated side dish will be no worse than a freshly prepared one.
