Stop Throwing Out Old Plastic Water Bottles: 10 Brilliant Hacks to Use Them Around the House
We all have those plastic water bottles lying around—empty, forgotten, and destined for the trash bin. But before you toss them out, hold on! These everyday items can be transformed into practical, creative, and eco-friendly tools for your home. Instead of contributing to pollution and landfill overflow, why not give your old bottles a second life? Here are 10 brilliant hacks to help you repurpose plastic water bottles around the house.
1. Self-Watering Plant Pots
Cut a plastic bottle in half and invert the top part into the bottom to create a self-watering planter. Fill the bottom with water, place soil and a plant in the top section, and watch your plant thrive without daily watering.
2. Bird Feeder
Turn a bottle into a simple bird feeder. Cut holes on the sides, insert small perches (like wooden spoons or sticks), fill the bottle with birdseed, and hang it outside. It’s an easy way to attract feathered friends to your garden.
3. Storage for Small Items
Use cleaned bottles to organize tiny items like beads, buttons, screws, or coins. Cut the bottle’s top off and keep the bottom part as a clear container—easy to see what’s inside.
4. Watering Can
Poke holes in the cap of a bottle to create a makeshift watering can. Fill with water and gently sprinkle plants indoors or in your garden.
5. Funnel for Liquids or Powders
Cut the bottle’s neck off and use it as a funnel for transferring liquids or powders into smaller containers. Simple, effective, and handy in the kitchen or workshop.
6. Desk Organizer
Cut bottles vertically and shape them into holders for pens, pencils, or makeup brushes. Decorate with paint or washi tape to add a personal touch to your workspace.
