33 Incredibly Useful Life Hacks

Sharpen scissors quickly by cutting through folded aluminum foil 

There are a couple of ways to sharpen dull scissors, but using aluminum foil takes the crown. To do this, tear some aluminum foil at least 10 inches long and fold the sheet multiple times until it is about 6 times thicker. Next step is to cut the folded coil with the scissors. Try to cut the foil into at least 10 strips, using full-stroke cuts. That’s all. Your scissors will definitely be significantly sharper than it used to be. You can repeat the process multiple times. This also helps in getting rid of rust on the blades, which helps in preventing dulling.
