Unusual uses for ordinary things make life easier. Do you want to color wood, but don’t want to invest in stain? Try coffee! Need to do a quick load of laundry, but forgot to buy detergent? Use mouthwash! Want a cheap and easy alternative to dryer sheets? Believe it or not, tennis balls will do the trick! It is simply amazing what you can do with ordinary items that you have just sitting around your house.

Come up with the most unusual and helpful uses and you could win a Gift Card. Check out this great collection for inspiration!

About Instructables:

Instructables is a place that lets you explore, document, and share your creations. The seeds of Instructables germinated at the MIT Media Lab as the future founders of Squid Labs built places to share their projects, connect with others, and make an impact on the world. One of these early places was a blog Zeroprestige, which was an open source hardware experiment for kitesurfing. Here they documented their hand-sewn kites, plywood boards, and other general mayhem that happens when PhDs and high winds collide.

Instructables was officially spun out of Squid Labs in the summer of 2006, and has gone on to grow from a modest hundreds of projects to over one hundred thousand. The community that now calls the site home, is an amazing mix of wonder from around the world. Every day we continue to be amazed by the imagination, curiosity, and simple awesomeness of everyone who shares their creations with us on Instructables.
