Reader Organizing Tip
I made this one switch to rake leaves a lot quicker…
One of the things I always do to rake leaves is to lay out a tarp. The leaves are then scooped into
the tarp. Using one is so much easier than leaf bags. But it was still taking me a lot of time to rake
the lawn because we have a ton of large trees.
While walking around Home Depot yesterday, it occurred to me that I could rake leaves a lot
quicker if I was using a much larger rake.
Now I’m able to scoop up double the leaves than I could with my smaller rake, without any
additional effort!

Reader Organizing Tip
Great fall tip!
Use the legs of old, metal, TV trays to help make fall leaf pick-up a snap. Just turn them upside
down. I found that big, black bags fit over them nicely and stay open to put fall leaves in. Sure
beats having to struggle to keep a bag open!
In addition, I use old, big dog food bags instead of buying the plastic ones for the leaves. The dog
food bags also fit over the metal legs of a snack table and stay open for leaves or what the dog
leaves behind in my yard too.
