If you’re tired of that flimsy, cheap looking plastic paper towel holder, why not go to the other extreme? Our friends over at Design, Dining and Diapers put together a nifty how-to that results in an inexpensive, industrial-chic paper towel holder that just about anyone can make with a few easy to find materials. A little wood and some plumbing parts go a long way with this project. Check out the full details on the DD&D site.
The Post-It Keyboard Duster
Hold on! Before you toss that Post-It that’s been tormenting you from the bottom of your computer monitor for weeks, why not put that remaining sticky-power to work? Run the Post-It between your keyboard keys and you’ll find it does a great job of picking up some of the scary little nooks that will ultimately gunk-up your keys.
Duct Tape Screw Holder
If you need to remove screws and then replace them, getting them lost among the other loose materials is all too easy. Avoid lost screws by pushing them into a piece of duct tape and taping them to your screw gun or project.
Improvised Measuring Tape Notepad
Stick masking tape on the side of your measuring tape to write down measurements so you don’t forget.
Use Pot in Pot Planting to Swap Vegetables and Flowers in Your Landscape
Dig a hole for a pot just slightly larger than the planted pot you’ll be using. Make sure both pots have adequate drainage holes. For enhanced drainage, apply a layer of gravel below the in-ground outer pot. Using several of these enables you to quickly change your landscaping, for veggies, flowers and other plants.
