Simple Life Hacks That Have “Grandma” Written All Over Them

Everybody’s handwriting is unique. Some of us have very neat and tidy writing, while others have very messy, difficult-to-read writing. That’s just naturally how it comes out! But, if you grew up with adults constantly criticizing your handwriting, you’re probably pretty self-conscious about your handwriting today. You may feel that you can do nothing to fix your writing, but granny knew a secret trick.

To make your handwriting a bit easier to read, seek help from a rubber band. Wrap the elastic around your wrist, then twist one end around your pen. The elastic pulls on the pen, creating a more stable and tighter grip. It may not be a magic fix for beautiful handwriting, but it will likely make your scratchy writing easier to read.
