Some things in the house can be used for other purposes than their intended purpose. For example, starch, a food product. But someone came up with the idea of adding it to the water when washing windows and mirrors. Indeed, after such cleaning the glass shines and sparkles with cleanliness.
Almost any item can be adapted in another way. This is how useful tips appear, which in modern parlance are called life hacks.
Plastic bottles, sour cream cups and other plastic packaging are especially popular. Instead of throwing them away, it's better to turn them into something useful.
So many things have already been invented, but new fresh ideas for using plastic containers appear every time. Recently, our subscriber told how she used sour cream glasses instead of a metal sponge for washing dishes.
I tried to do the same for myself and was delighted with this invention.
Here's what to do:
- I took a glass and cut it in a spiral into one strip. Width approximately 0.5 cm.
- Then she rolled the spiral into a ring and tied it with a strong rope like a bow.
It turned out to be a sponge for washing pans and pots when you can’t do it with just a rag. All stuck food and dried dirt are removed with a bang.
I tested a new sponge on a baking dish, the result was excellent.
A special advantage of such a sponge is that the plastic in which the products were packaged is harmless. It also won't scratch nonstick pans or leave gray streaks on enamel cookware, unlike metal mesh.
- I made the same thing from a transparent half-liter bottle. Here the plastic is softer, so I didn’t have to bandage it. The spirals are tangled together into a bunch.
- With this sponge you can not only wash dishes, but also clean plumbing fixtures in places where hard deposits have appeared.
- This little thing will help out if you don’t have a metal sponge at hand, the main thing is the result and it’s free.
And this sponge is made in a matter of minutes.
All the best!
