So it does work really well for clogs? I need a good drain cleaner instead of resorting to cheap knock off drain-o type stuff. I want to try to clean my tub with it too.
Neat reusing ideas

Thank you for posting this! I shared it with a friend who was having a birthday party for her daughter, and wanted largish goodie bags for the guests. She made these with pretty print place mats and thick ribbon instead of twine. She's very crafty, and they came out so cute! This is the photo from your link, I don't have a pic of the goody bag ones.

oh god I love reading these in my Mum's magazines. My favourite was how to make a pair of slippers out of sanitary towels. Whyyyyyy would you do that!

I use empty cardboard boxes or food containers to put vegetable peelings/other compostable waste in. It saves buying those compostable bags and, at least with my council, you recycle cardboard with compost rather than with paper.
Yes, that would make more sense wouldn't it.
I think I might do another one that way. I don't know what it would be like after it is washed.

I had some cardboard so I covered it with some fabric and some ribbon to make a notice board. I also used an old Pringles tin to store dried spaghetti.
I tried this idea that I found online and it looked okay enough to wear under clothes when it's cold.

just saw this on Dr. Oz today and thought it was a great idea...
reusing plastic bottle tops to seal food storage bags
reusing plastic bottle tops to seal food storage bags
Those were at a local discount store! I mean they were manufactured! Sold at 3 for $ 1.00. I thought that was a good idea, but her video making them out out of bottles was sheer brillance!
I didn't buy any, because I figured they'd end up in drawer. Now I'm gonna make some! Big jars like PB would be really good!
I love this! I tried it with the soda bottle a few months ago and the opening is way too small...how silly that I didn't think of using a juice bottle...or the PB jar like silva said...brilliant!

I have a few juice jars in the recycling bin. I'm going to go chop off they little heads!
Alice-bee should be very afraid.
That's a good idea. I keep forgetting and keep putting my old bottles in the recycling bin. You can also use those little clips on the ends of plastic clothes hangers as a way to seal food bags.
I was looking at ridiculously expensive dog clothing yesterday and it occurred to me that some of the jumpers looked like hot water bottle covers so I made Molly a jumper out of a hot water bottle cover. She feels the cold so I'm going to order some cheap hot water bottle covers to make her a whole wardrobe.

Chop
Chop off their heads? Queen of hearts? Alice?
I can't be the only one that made that connection. :\
