Store valuables. Make a two-inch
slit along one seam of a Tennis
Ball, then place valuables inside.
If you hide the doctored tennis
ball among your other sports
equipment, remember not to use
it. |
| •
Fluff your down jacket in the
dryer and reduce static cling.
Throw in a handful of Tennis
Balls to fluff the down while
the jacket is tumbling in the
dryer. |
| •
Childproof the sharp corners
of furniture. Cut old Tennis
Balls in half or quarters and
use Scotch Packaging Tape to
tape the sections over sharp
corners of coffee tables, end
tables, cabinets, dining room
tables, and other pieces of
furniture that might be dangerous
to a small child. |
| •
Make parking cars in your garage
easier. Hang a Tennis Ball on
a string from the garage ceiling
so it will hit the windshield
at the spot where you should
stop your car. |
| •
Prevent a chrome trailer hitch
from getting scratched. Slit
a Tennis Ball and put it over
the trailer hitch as a protective
cover. |
| •
Make a walker glide more easily.
Cut a hole in two Tennis Balls
and fit them on the back feet
of the walker. |
| •
Give yourself a foot massage.
Roll your foot over a Tennis

Make a back massager. Put several
Tennis Balls inside a sock and
tie at the end. This is frequently
used by the labor coach to massage
the back of a woman in labor. |

Remove cobwebs from unreachable
places. Wrap a Tennis Ball inside
a dust cloth secured with a
few rubber bands, then toss
at the distant cobweb. |
| •
Play "basket tennis."
Remove the bottom from an empty
coffee can, and nail the can
above the garage door. Use a
Tennis Ball to play basketball. |
