Alternative Uses For Household Appliances

[rowanwitch]

During my time as a nurse I was aware of a number of vacuum cleaner incidents, how many uses of household equipment can you think of?

I have, on more than one occasion, used the following;

Handle of a teaspoon as a screwdriver
Broom handle as a roller extension
Bread knife as a makeshift aerial for my old radio

Probably others i've long forgotten

Kebab skewers to tickle people, the cold metal is great
Table tennis bats as spanking paddles ;-)

Knife as a screwdriver
Rolling pin as a hammer

[rowanwitch]

Table tennis bats make excellent spanking paddles, I agree. Feather dusters offer a few options and you can get attachments for electric toothbrushes while you are planting bulbs with your main machine.

Ok sauce bottles were popular in my day, as we're plastic vegetables especially sweetcorn..... oooh matron. It's the knobbles

Apparently candles had a few uses apart from providing light.

I have used a drill to make meringues when the proper thing failed....

The round grill thing from a microwave just fits nicely inside a galvanised bucket to hold the stones in a little pebble pond.....

Remove the handles from frying pans and you have some little bird baths.... x

And we all know guess uses a mini power sander as a manicure accessory, I forgot washing machines. Especially if they are not quite balanced.....

[gness]

Indeed, Rowan.......and I have now bought an Aldi Dremel look alike for those tough nail days ahead..... :-)

I have done the knife as a screwdriver trick.
