clear nail polish

According to Real Simple, 5 uses for clear nail polish:

1. Keep an eyeglass screw in place. If your glasses are a bit wobbly, tighten the screws and top them off with a dollop of polish.

2. Secure buttons. Apply a thin layer of polish to the center of a button to keep the thread from coming loose.

3. Avoid rust stains in the bathroom. Coat the bottom of a shaving-cream can to fend off rings on the ledge of the tub.

4. Seal an envelope. When a flap won't stay stuck, find closure with clear polish.

5. Extend the life of jewelry. Paint a thin coat onto a costume bauble to prevent it from losing its luster.

Well how about that! You learn something new every day! I like the button idea -- SOOOO annoying when brand-new clothes start shedding their buttons!
