4 things you can make by re-using and re purposing a bath puff scrubbie thing.

So if we are going to be successful in a frugal homesteader lifestyle, we have to bear 3 things in mind.
1. Use what you have as often as possible.
2. Waste Not, Want Not (don't just throw stuff out).
3. Don't buy it if you can make it.



I have a never-used bath puff that was destined for the trash. Not a huge deal, right? Because I didn't pay for it (it came in a gift basket) and they are cheap. No biggie. But I did manage to stop myself and ask what else I could do with it.
I came upon the following cute and cool and frugal ideas from the web.


1. Make a pot scrubber.

This will most likely be the project I go with. Great idea in my opinion from Salihan Crafts. She also shows how to make a Yarn Sleeve from the puff in this same post. 



1. (again) Here's a video tutorial on making a pot scubber for those of you who prefer video.



2. Make a costume.

This clever idea comes to us from Razmataz Blog. The directions are easy and fun and are right here.



3. Make a shower hanger.

This idea comes to us from the Instructables website. Click here for details. .



4. Make a bird feeder.
 

This video will show you how to do it with mesh produce bags, but if you take apart your bath puff, you'll find that it's the same thing. It's a mesh tube. 


As always, we'd love to see pics of how yours turned out or any other ideas you have for this concept!

  1. I have so many of these laying around the house. I'm going to try the costume for Halloween.
