Isolation Life Hacks.


You can make some very cool items that could help you get through isolation. I haven't tried these life hacks so please comment if they work. I want to wish everyone a big be safe and let's now get into it.

If you have lots of people in your family this life hack could work for you. You will need: A bottle of soap, some straws, a balloon, some tape and a drill. Get your bottle of soap and drill some holes the shape of your straw's perimetre. Then put your straws inside of the holes you made. Make sure your soap is not full to the top. Then take the cap off the soap bottle. Cut a small hole in the balloon on the top. Then put the side of the hole you made and tape it on. Blow at the other end and soap should comeout the other end. You can iron the end of the straw when your not using it then when you are, snip the ends off by a little. Remember to use parchment paper to iron the ends. That is that life hack now the next one. Remember to comment if these work!!!

Now for the second life hack. This hack will require: two elastic bands, a few thick tissues or soft clean wipes, hot glue gun and not afraid of others because this is not really a working hack. It is just for fun. Get your glue gun and glue your tissues together. Then glue the elastic bands on the tissues. There you have it your own homenade mask. Heh. But seriously, that is a very cool thing to do in isolation right now. To the next hack.

Get physical with some fun. This hack will make you stop being bored. If you like sports. This hack will require some help from an adult so stand by. You will need: a old net, some wood or poles more sensible but either will do. Your toolbox, nails, drill and a ball. You can make either a soccer goal or a basketball hoop if you don't have them already. I'm going to make a soccer goal but the basketball hoop should be easy so try figure it out for yourself and get crafty. Get your wood or poles and set them in a triangular prism shape. Then.use what you've got and nail or somehow bind them together. Now here comes the net. Get the net and hot glue gun it on. Now have fun kicking a ball into your new goal. Over to life hack in isolation No. 4.

Now this one is a cool one. It is another one that will help you forget what boring is. I don't like wasting money on this thing because with just a glue gun you can do it. This hack will require a cool 2D sculpture, hot glue gun, a spray can of your choice and some parchement paper. I'll do for example, The Eiffel Tower. Find a 2D picture on the internet of if you have some yourself. Get some see through parchment paper and place it on the picture of your Eiffel Tower or whatever. Trace all the details of the picture a hot glue gun and do that 3 more times. You might go through much more glue sticks. Then let them all dry. Once you know they are dry, get more glue sticks and kick all of it until broken. Haha. You wasted all your glue. Nah, i'm joking. Don't break it. Of course you won't right after all the hard work. Glue all 4 pieces together then spray paint it. 
Ta-da!!! Awesome right? Now if you think that is awesome go to the next one. 

Now this is that do with cooking. At the momment it is close to Anzac Day. I'm going to attempt to make some Anzac Biscuits soon. Yiu can make these at any time just make it more in that style. Example: Christmas: Tree or St Patricks: Clover of if your fancy, a Leprechaun. For Anzac, I'm going for a classic: a poppy. This requires:
1 ¼ cups quick oats
1 cup plain flour
1 cup caster sugar
½ cup desiccated coconut
½ cup shredded coconut
150 g unsalted butter, chopped
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 tbsp boiling water

Ok now do the following method. Get three cooking trays and line them up. Then mix all of the following: oats, flour, sugar and both coconuts. Mix it in a big bowl. Melt thand syrup in a medium saucepan over a low heat. Remove from heat. Dissolve soda in water in a heatproof jug. Stir into butter mixture. Pour butter mixture over oat mixture. Stir well until combined. Roll rounded tablespoons of mixture into balls. Place 5cm apart on prepared trays. Press to slightly flatten. Cook two trays in a moderately slow oven (160C) for about 16 to 18 minutes, or until very golden brown. Remove from oven. Repeat with remaining tray. Stand biscuits on trays for 10 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool. Well ther you go a huge batch of Anzac Bikkies. Nice for your fanily and friends to eat. Just don't go running to your friends house just to deliver these cookies. Stay HOME!!!
