Spackle in a sandwich bag saved my crooked baseboards
When I replaced the baseboards in my hallway, the corners came out uneven and full of gaps. My first try with a putty knife just made a mess and kept sliding off. Then a buddy told me to snip a tiny corner off a ziplock bag, fill it with spackle, and squeeze it into the cracks like a pastry bag. It worked way better than I expected, and the patch dried smooth enough to sand in 20 minutes. Has anyone else found a weird kitchen hack that beats the proper tools?
