37 Unique Life Hacks That Will Change Your Life

No More Hammer Hurt

With the popularity of social media, DIY projects are taking the world by storm. People are taking matters into their own hands, opting to complete projects in the comfort of their own homes rather than hiring the assistance of a professional for a problem that can literally be fixed in-house. You-Tube and Pinterest are flooded with advice and footage of various projects made easy, breaking complex projects down into easily understood terms.

Many of the featured projects, as well as common home décor projects of our own, require the use of a hammer and nail. We try to hammer with precision and speed, which in most cases, one or the other goes lacking. Unfortunately, usually our fingers pay the price!

Easy way to hammer a nail without having to worry about striking yourself accidentally? Use a clothespin to hold the nail in place! The clothespin will absorb any misplaced strikes, allowing you to complete your project safely, fingers intact.
