29 Home Hacks for Husbands

How to be your spouse's Superman

100% of the credit for every home hack I compiled goes to Dustin Hadley. I don’t know Dustin, but from what I've seen, he's Clark Kent from Kentucky, proof that not all heroes wear capes.

I reviewed every hack he shared on his YouTube Shorts playlist, most of which are on his TikTok account. Without further ado, here are my 29 favorite hacks created by the Superman of the South, catalogued and ranked.
