One of my problems is being too short. So my one of my all time remedies is to fix those nasty pant and skirt length is to staple them to fit the length you want. This method of heming is very inexpensive and fast. All you have to do is turn under or cut off the excess cloth and staple it to the length you want. When doing this, remeber to have the sharp part of the staple facing out.
College students like to decorate their room with all finds of things.
One way of doing this, is to use staples to hang pictures, posters, or any little thing you find to put on your door. Accomplishing this is not a difficult task. All you have to do is open the stapler and adjust the poster, picture, or whatever you are trying to fix and staple away. Make sure not to staple your thumb. You can also fix things that have sentimental value.
