   2. Extend Vegetable Freshness
      Place a kitchen paper towel at the bottom of the plastic bag that comes with your groceries, then put perishable vegetables in the bag. This can help extend their freshness.
      
      
   3. Quickly Cool Beverages
      On a hot day, if your drink isn't cold enough, wet a kitchen paper towel and wrap it around the beverage can. Put the wrapped drink in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. Your drink will quickly cool down, and you'll have a nice cold beverage to enjoy!

4. Remove Faucet Stains
   If your faucet has lingering water stains and grime that won't come off, don't worry. Soak a kitchen paper towel in baking soda water, wrap it around the faucet, and let it sit for about 2 hours. Then remove the paper towel and wipe it clean. Your faucet will be back to its original clean state.
   
   
5. Keep White Shoes Clean
   White shoes are stylish and versatile but get dirty easily. Cleaning them can be a hassle, and there's the added worry of dust settling on them while drying. After washing your white shoes, wrap them in kitchen paper towels and leave them to dry in a cool place. The paper towels will absorb any yellow stains on the shoes' surface and speed up the drying process, making them a great helper for washing white shoes.
   
   
6. Remove Surface Oil
   Wrap ice cubes in a kitchen paper towel and slide it over the surface of the soup. The oil on the surface will solidify when it meets the cold and will be absorbed by the kitchen paper towel, quickly removing the oil from the soup.
