Can anyone tell me the difference between BakingPowder and Bicarbonate of Soda as I saw some tips about washing pillows that are yellowish,what do you recomend. I have front loader.
@John livingstone baking powder makes baked good rise. While baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) may have some rising properties it is much less. Baking soda also has a multitude of uses and hence is used in many cleaning projects. My vote would be for the baking soda if you are cleaning something - it also tends to soften fabrics.
Get an old board and glue antique keys in different directions and use a key holder for your current keys, Put pegs under it to hold your keys, also put them on frames to hold your love ones close, ex. you hold the keys to my heart:

Valerie - oh the choices! How about spray painting the keys and framing them like this: http://www.designsponge.com/2010/09/before-after-jennifers-bedroom-amys-key-portrait.html or a necklace like this: http://crackerjack23.blogspot.com/2012/05/diy-jewelry-antique-key-necklace.html or an idea that popped into my head is to use them to create a layered key "roof" on a wooden birdhouse or make a tray similar to this penny counter (just use keys instead of pennies)! http://www.hometalk.com/166168/penny-countertop

Could you somehow make a row of hooks out of them by attaching them to a chippy, old board? What a fun find!
Valerie, use the search feature here and search the word keys - lots of ideas - great wind chimes.
I stretched burlap over a frame and attached some of my oldest keys. Make a great conversation piece.

I happen to be making a wind chime using a bunch of old keys and beads........
make a cross.
I had a bunch of old keys. I shined them up using my dremel w/brush, then I used E6000 & glued old jewelry pieces on them. They make great necklaces.
