There is a Festive hack that has surfaced on social media that has legit just transformed a $2 pool noodle into something special!!
If you are a Christmas fanatic you will fully understand that decorations are a pretty serious investment (don’t tell my partner) so if you are looking for some cheap alternatives that this hack will definitely be right up your alley.
We have some seriously fantastic people over on the Kmart Home Decor & Hacks Australia Facebook Group to thank for this one.
You see, the guys and gals on the popular Group have only gone and transformed the humble pool noodle (which might we add sells for $2) into some pretty amazing Christmas table centrepieces!!
And seriously, the hack is so simple it is genius…
All you have to do is, starting with a pool noodle, cut in half lengthways so you are left with two semi-circular noodles. Sit the flat side on your table and decorate. The possibilities are endless, you can wrap the noodle with tinsel, hot glue on baubles or even directly spike decorations into the noodle.
Need some inspiration? Here are some of the BEST Noodle Decoration Hacks we found!

If you shave your legs, you’ll know how tiresome a chore it is, so we’ve got an awesome hack to save you time in the shower.
With summer around the corner, what’s not to love!?
And of course it’s on TikTok, that school of life for things we should’ve learned long ago.
TikTok user Lauren Henderson uploaded a video showing the hack, which has now had 1.6 million views.
It looks crazy like it might scratch up your skin but rest assured it works!
We’ll explain why after the video:
@lalalalauren00 Who freaking knew? Cause I didn’t🤯 thank you girl on tiktok—I am forever changed! #fy #fyp #foryou #shavingtips #shavinghack

No more swiping the razor up your leg once or twice, rinsing the hair from the razor and repeating. Just zoom up and down and up and down and up and down and you’re done before you know it.
As commenter Candace Mae explained: “When you slide back down, it pushes the hair out of the blades! I’ve been saving this way for years.”
How brilliant!
“I did this the other way and was blown away. I used to take 20min per leg!!” wrote LotsOfFakeParts.
Apparently the hack works for the awkward knobbly knee area, though watching the video is a bit nerve-wracking.

Commenters also jumped in with some other shaving tips, like:
Using conditioner instead of shaving cream because it’s softer and cheaper; using men's razors as they're cheaper and work better; and one even suggested using the shaving hack while peeling vegetables. Presumably with a vegetable peeler, we hope!

"What you didn't know is that the song has a darker meaning behind it. Andre 3000 actually wrote this about modern-day relationships and how messed up they are. In the beginning of his song, he even references his own relationship talking about how his baby doesn’t wanna leave him, but how he doesn’t really know what the reason is behind it."
If you just read the lyrics, it actually sounds like a really sad song. Even at the breakdown at the end, he makes a reference to how people are just gonna see it as a happy song, and not even think about the deeper meaning behind it. Nor do they even wanna hear about it. He literally says 'you all don’t wanna listen to me, you just wanna dance.'
@elizadeva Go listen & it will hit DIFFERENT! Follow for Part 5! (Hey Ya! By OutKast) ##songwriting ##music ##deepermeaning ##hitdifferent ##LearnOnTiktok ##trend ##fyp

A fan has even done a cover, revealing how sad the song sounds when sang differently.

The meaning hasn't been a secret though, as in an interview with MTV from 2004, Andre 3000 explained:
"'Hey Ya!' is pretty much about the state of relationships in the 2000s. It's about some people who stay together in relationships because of tradition, because somebody told them, 'You guys are supposed to stay together.' But you pretty much end up being unhappy for the rest of your life.
Check out the lyrics below for yourself, listen closely and see if it hits different!
One, two, three!
My baby don't mess around
Because she loves me so
This I know fo sho!
But does she really wanna
But can't stand to see me walk out the door
Don't try to fight the feeling
Because the thought alone is killin' me right now
Thank God for Mom and Dad
For sticking to together
Like we don't know how
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!
Hey ya! Hey ya!
You think you've got it
Oh, you think you've got it
But got it just don't get it when there's nothin' at all
We get together
Oh, we get together
But separate's always better when there's feelings involved
Know what they say -its
Nothing lasts forever!
Then what makes it, then what makes it
Then what makes it, then what makes it
Then what makes love the exception?
So why, oh, why, oh
Why, oh, why,…

An angry mum who has had an unpleasant family camping trip has taken to the internet to share her thoughts on certain campers who kept her up during the night.
She says snorers shouldn't be allowed camping which of course has divided the internet.
Posting to a forum on mumsnet.com, user Franklyfrost appeals, "No snorers allowed camping." Her full post says:
"Just that.
Having finally managed to get to sleep on our mysteriously but persistently deflating air mattress someone in the field next door wakes me up making a noise like a food processor being turned on and off. I have young kids in the tent with me and older kids in the tent text door so I can’t wear eye plugs. It’s a family campsite so it’s not just me who won’t be able to wear ear plugs. Just don’t go camping near others if you snore. They must know they snore because they’re not pitched up alone, so their party must all have come prepared with earplugs.
YABU (You are being unreasonable) camping is for everyone, you can’t discriminate.
YANBU (You are not being unreasonable) camping is not for someone who makes a really loud noise all night long to show off how well they’re sleeping while stopping anyone else from getting what rest they can"
A mother has called for snorers to be banned at campsites. (Image Credit: Tatsiana Hendzel / Shutterstock.com)
Some users sympathised and backed up the original poster, saying that snorers were inconsiderate. They said:
"Agree with you OP. It's inconsiderate to inflict so much noise on others at night, not much of a holiday for everyone who then has to deal with sleep deprivation."
Others weren't so sympathetic and said:
"What? You decide that the ideal holiday is to cram yourself into a field with a load of strangers for a few a few days despite that fact that you are intolerant of the noises that people make. And this is someone else's fault?
Newsflash OP: people make noises, they snore, they cry, they argue, they play. Stay home if you can't bear to be around other humans."
Of course, people that were snorers weren't happy with the original post with comments like:
"Oh god. I snore. Always have done. I’ll remember to not do the things I love because of it though. Thanks for the reminder." and "I'll remember not to snore next time I go camping."
In a poll attached to the post asking 'Am I being Unreasonable?' 68% of the total 2100 votes (at the time of writing) believe the original poster is being unreasonable leaving 32% on her side and believing she is not being unreasonable.
