All kinds of bottles that are used up at home, whether they are delicate small glass bottles or sturdy large drink bottles, do not just throw them into the trash can. In terms of the wisdom contained in living at home, these bottles are all treasures. As a life expert who is keen on research, I have accumulated a lot of experience in waste recycling. Today I will share with you these 15 very useful transformation methods that have been tested by myself. They can solve the big troubles in daily life without spending a penny.
Small glass bottle transformed into portable tea can
Small glass bottles used to hold condiments or sauces. After cleaning and drying them completely, they are perfect for placing tea leaves. It has strong sealing performance and can effectively prevent tea leaves from getting damp. When you go out, you can carry it in your bag. It is light and convenient and does not take up too much space. It is more reassuring than buying a jar specially used to hold tea. It effectively achieves the effect of one item having multiple uses.
Transparent large bottle mouth turns into a grain storage tank
The mouth of the bottle is relatively large. It is a very good choice for storing grains. The body of the bottle is transparent. Whether it is red beans or millet can be clearly seen at a glance. There is no need to repeatedly open the lid to check. After washing and drying, there is no odor at all. Place it neatly on the kitchen counter. It looks neat and beautiful. It also saves the money needed to buy grain storage jars. The price-performance ratio is extremely high.
Cut a knife and get a garbage bag and a small shovel
First cut the large plastic bottle from the middle, and then use double-sided tape or screws to fix the remaining upper part with the bottle mouth on the inside of the cabinet door. In this way, a garbage bag storage artifact that is easy to access at any time is completed. Don't discard the cut lower part. Trim it according to the curvature of the bottle. Then cut the two bottom corners into bevel shapes, and then turn it into a small shovel that is comfortable and easy to use. If you have cats and dogs at home, you can use it to shovel the cat food and dog food. The size is suitable and there will be no spillage at all.
The wonderful use of bottle caps: sealing plastic bags
The bottle cap is removed and a hole is dug in the middle to become a so-called plastic bag sealer. Pass the opening of the plastic bag containing flour and sugar through the bottle cap, and then screw on the cap. The cap has an excellent seal. During use, unscrew the cap and pour it directly, and the dosage can be accurately controlled, which is more convenient than using a special sealing clip.
Cotton swab + bottle = lazy watering machine
Make a small hole in the middle of the bottle cap, insert a cotton swab into it, and then use tape to bind a chopstick. When in use, invert it and insert it into the soil of the flower pot. It relies on the siphon principle of cotton swabs to slowly supply water to the plants. It can be called a necessary watering tool for lazy people. You don’t have to worry even if you are on a business trip for a few days.
A vegetable soup filter that makes cleaning easier
Cut the large beverage bottle in the middle, cut out two symmetrical holes in the upper part, and poke a few small holes in the bottom. Thread a rope through it so that it can be hung on the sink. After cooking the noodles or blanching the vegetables, pour all the soup and vegetables into it. The soup will be filtered out immediately. You no longer have to hold the pot to carefully drain the water to prevent it from spilling everywhere.
Umbrella drain rack by the door
In a similar way, punch holes symmetrically on the large bottle, put it on a rope, hang it by the door, and use it to place a wet umbrella on rainy days. The rainwater on the umbrella flows directly into the bottom of the bottle, and will not drip everywhere and cause it to be all over the house. When cleaning, you only need to pour out the accumulated water, so that the home can always be kept dry.
Extra large oil drum turns into a food waste bin
After using the oversized oil drum, cut a circle along the line below the bottle mouth, but do not cut it open, so that the upper part can be opened like a lid. Clip it on the cabinet door panel. When disposing of kitchen waste, you can throw the peeled peels and picked vegetable leaves in without having to bend down to do it, which saves space and is also clean.
Wall storage box in refrigerator
Cut the plastic bottle in half from the middle, and the bottom can be placed on the side of the refrigerator to store small packets. If you want to save more space, take a small clip to clamp the mouth of the bottle and fix it on the partition on the inner wall of the refrigerator. In this way, a wall-mounted storage box is born that is specially designed to store some small items without taking up the space inside the refrigerator.
The perfect substitute for oyster sauce bottles
Everyone knows that oyster sauce must be kept in the refrigerator, but large bottles of oyster sauce often cannot fit into the refrigerator door. I took the empty Weiquan drink bottle, which has a wide mouth, and matched it with the bottle cap of Screaming Drink, which has a small mouth, and assembled it into a squeeze bottle to hold oyster sauce. It is small and does not take up space. It can be easily placed in the refrigerator. You can squeeze as much as you want when using it, and you no longer have to shake the bottle.
Homemade drain soap box
First cut the bottle in half, then place the upper part of the bottle with the mouth facing downwards, and buckle it inside the bottom of the lower bottle. A simple soap storage box is completed. Place the used soap on top, and the remaining water will drip to the bottom on its own, keeping the soap dry and avoiding the possibility of mold growing due to soaking.
Simple desktop pen holder
Cut off the upper part of a small plastic bottle, trim the rough edges, and label it with your favorite label. It becomes a simple pen holder that can be used to insert small tools such as pens, scissors, and utility knives. It can be placed on a desk or office desk to look neat and uncluttered.
Mini breathable flower pot
Cut the upper part of the beverage bottle into a large cut, poke some ventilation holes at the bottom, and lay a layer of paper towels or gauze to prevent soil from leaking out. A mini flower pot is now complete. It is particularly suitable for planting succulents and green radish seedlings. It has good air permeability and is not prone to root rot. It is very stylish when placed on the windowsill.
Lightweight seasoning dispensing bottle
Empty oil bottles are thoroughly washed with dish soap to remove the oil stains. They can be used to fill vats of soy sauce or vinegar. The bottle is very light, easy to control when pouring, does not occupy the kitchen countertop, and can prevent large bottles of condiments from deteriorating due to repeated opening.
Data cable anti-winding holder
The last wonderful use belongs to the bottle cap. Cut a small gap in the middle of the bottle cap, and stick it to the edge of the desktop or the wall with double-sided tape. The charging cable is stuck in the gap, which can effectively prevent the data cables from being tangled together and forming a knot. It can be seen clearly at a glance when searching, keeping the desktop clean and refreshing.
These modification methods are all extremely simple and easy to use. They do not require the use of complicated tools and can be completed with ease. It can not only achieve the purpose of reducing waste, but also achieve the effect of saving money. By mastering these methods, all the discarded bottles at home can be transformed from waste into treasure, and all kinds of daily minor troubles can be easily solved.
