“When I’m not in the mood for a trip to the hardware store, I’ll fix up some holes in the wall with baking soda and super glue”

Don’t want to head to the hardware store for plaster? Then why not try using baking soda and super glue instead? Bob Vila, a home fixer legend, suggests mixing a little bit of baking soda with the super glue.

Use a toothpick to combine them and apply the mixture directly to the wall. Let it dry completely and then sand the surface to make it level with the wall. This solution may not be the most elegant, but it creates a very strong hold that you can paint over.
