Five kitchen hacks to make your life easier & how to revive knives with a MUG

A CLEANING guru has shared how to make your dull knives extra sharp using a mug and other kitchen hacks that will make your life easier.

TikTok user only known as @home_reimagined took to her social media page to offer a helping hand to fellow cleaning enthusiasts in the kitchen - and these tricks will save your time too.

According to the whizz, not only are these cleaning hacks effective but they will also change your life.

The first tip the pro swore by was knowing how to clean your blender after blitzing up a refreshing and nutritious smoothie.

Rather than sticking in your hand the appliance, grab some dish-washing liquid, pour in the blender along with water, and run the blender as you would normally.

In her video, she then chucked out the dirty soap water in the sink and gave it a good rinse - and the plastic container came out like new.

Another hack the social media was raving about was reviving dull kitchen knives with... a mug.

''[Take] a mug and flip it upside down. Use the bottom edges to sharpen the knife.

''Get a perfectly sharpened knife every single time.''

Fellow foodies will know just how frustrating it is to bite into bread that's lots its freshness because you can't find the clip.

Rather than letting oxygen enter the plastic bag, simply twist the top of the bag and roll it over itself ''for a clip-free seal''.

The cleaning enthusiast, who recently revealed how to get your floors sparkling with a tennis ball, also had a hack for cutting boards that slide all over the worktop.

''Grab a damp paper towel and place it underneath for no more slippery cutting board accidents.''

Last but certainly not least was a tip for having one too many wine glasses that don't fit into the cupboard.

To get more extra space with no faff, simply place some of the glasses upside down - the wide bottom, which takes up the most space, will be facing upwards.

Impressed with the tricks, one person said: ''Thanks … these are great!''

Another was just as amazed, writing: ''Wine glass hack wowed me.''

Someone else, meanwhile, thought: ''this is more like common sense than hacks.''
