Make Some Bumpers for Your Table

Glass tabletops are extremely popular, and it's not hard to see why. They're perfect for small spaces, and they go with any home aesthetic. But there's no doubt about the fact that glass tabletops can be pretty dangerous and fragile. Not only are they easy to tip over, but they're also very easy to chip.

Stop Kids Toys From Going Moldy

If you have children or grandchildren, you'll know that kids' toys can get pretty disgusting.

Give Your Kitchen Appliances a Second Life

No kitchen would be complete without a few kitchen appliances. Whether your personal favorite is the microwave or the blender, these appliances are normally made from plastic - and they are quite fragile because of that.

You could use hot glue to create a base for the appliance to stand on, or you could attach the handle back onto the main part of the appliance. Yes, hot glue can be pretty handy.

Craft a Animal Fur Remover

The world wouldn't be the same without pets. So many people find love, joy, and companionship in their fur babies. And while cat and dog people will always have their own reasons for loving their pets, there's no doubt about the fact that they can also be a nuisance. Yes, pet parents find that their house is full of loose hair, and it can be extremely tedious to clean up.

But instead of shelling out money on brushes, vacuums, and expensive pet products, you can create your own loose hair remover with just a glove and some hot glue. It works perfectly!

DIY a Makeshift Drain Stopper

There's nothing more relaxing than a hot bubble bath after a long day of work, but have you ever been in a situation where you've misplaced your bath stopper? Without that all-important tool, it's almost impossible to have a bath in water that at least covers your heels. But what you might not realize is that a balloon and some hot glue could be the solution you've been searching for.

If you fill a balloon with some hot glue and then mold the balloon into the drain before the glue cools, it will perfectly mold to the shape of the drain and stop any water from coming through!

When you spend money on expensive furniture, the last thing you want is to see water marks all over it. And while you could solve this by never drinking water again, we don't think your body would thank you for that! So, it might be time to invest in some coasters. But you don't have to go to a store and buy some, as the only investment you'll need to make is a glue gun, some wool, and some felt.

By gluing the wool onto the felt in a spiral pattern, you'll be able to make your own coasters in no time. Of course, you can choose your own color scheme too.
