9. Re-Using Your Cans
Apparently, You throw away your milo or malt cans after use, not knowing you can indeed put these cans to creative use, spanning from using the cans as light stoves, herb garden to using them as Recycled Aluminum Pull Tabs Jewelry or even a Beer Can Sofa. if you cannot do any of these, keep the cans for the scavengers, its definite it'll end up re-used that way.

10. Creating a Plastic Spoon Lamp

Plastic spoons are so common in Nigeria, most especially around the festivities just like this, You can put them to better use by bringing them all together to make a lamp.

Get a big bottle jar, just like the bottle of a big tasty-time, cut only the broad end with a knife, then move to the collection of spoons, cut the handle of each individual spoon and apply a tint of liquid gum at the broader end of the spoon as shown in the picture below. You can now start placing the spoon just around the tasty-time jar from bottom to top making sure that each spoon placed overlaps each other as you move towards the hollow neck, leave it to dry, then get a bulb (Bulb color as you wish) with a lamp holder on a vertical support. Cover the bulb with the dried firm spoon catologue. there you have it. Your Own Plastic Spoon Lamp.

Good day Nairalanders, with all sense of humility, i'd like to share with you twelve casual ways to be creative with stuffs around you this festive. Happy Viewing...


1. Use a spring from your old pen to protect your charger from bending or breaking.

Have you been wondering what the spring of an old pen could be used to do? Or wondering how to prevent your charger from breaking just at the charging neck? Using the spring as a stability structure for your charger is not a bad idea since the diameter of most cables are equivalent to the inner diameter of the spring, its a win win.

2. Putting a dry tea bag in smelly shoes.

Tea seems not to be the only product of a tea bag, Moisture is the property that makes your shoe smell, the ability of a teabag to absorb odor via moisture cannot be over-emphasized. You simply take the tea bags after using them for tea, dry them out then put them near the toes on the sole of the shoe. This works great in tennis shoes or any shoe that absorbs moisture that has a bad smell. Try it out! You can also take any peel from a citrus fruit such as an orange, grapefruit, lime or lemon and put that peel in the shoe as well and leave it in overnight. Take it out in the morning and see how that changes the smell of your shoe.

3. Getting More Space In The Microwave

This is indeed a conservative method, and as an environmental engineer, i see this as one of the fast ways to ensure cleaner production in reducing total power utilization. Now back to the gist, my microwave at home has a space width of 3 inches, that means i cannot conveniently put two plates of at least 2inches each at once, this method mitigates that. Look for a tin with a lesser diameter and height (Not lesser than what can carry your second plate), then place the second plate on the tin. Since the microwave works on a rotating principle, the rotation on the tin is transferred to the plate and space is conserved.

4. Using Your Egg Crate To Cool Your Laptop as a Laptop Fan

A laptop fan in ibadan starts from 3k5, you don't have the money to buy one now but your laptop would not stop overheating most especially when you place it on a flat surface, an egg crate could come to your aid. Almost all households have an eggcrate in the kitchen, pick it up and clean it, place it calmly on the flat surface or your bed, then put your laptop on it, the egg crate does two things intermittently, its made of composites which are insulating (repels heat) in property, and it give space for aeration (air flow). After knowing this, i hope u'll still use ur crates for eggs oooo. hahahhahaha...
