DIY Hand Sanitizer Tutorials

I don’t know how I manage to get sick over 10 times a year, but I do. I even obsessively wash my hands and carry around hand sanitizer! I must have the weakest immune system ever.

If you’re crazy like me and need hand sanitizer constantly, the cost of buying it all the time really adds up. Why not make your own, instead?

And hey – this dude on YouTube says a lot of store-bought hand sanitizers are bad! Hand Sanitizers Cause Hundreds of Child Poisonings: WCVBtv on YouTube

Below, there are so many different ways that you can make hand sanitizer. Honestly, I don’t even know which one I should try or which one will be the most effective. But at least I can research more easily now!

Old Picture Frames: What Can I Do With Them?

I have TONS of old picture frames – TONS. I am pretty set on making sure my frames in each of my rooms match. A lot of times I just spray paint the old frames so that they are all the same color – so that usually works out! However, I have frames with missing glass, latches, and huge chips. There’s a ton of stuff that you can do with these – which brings me to the purpose of this post!

Toilet Paper Rolls: What Can I Do With Them?

Honestly, I’m amazed. I didn’t think you could do anything with toilet paper rolls! I am obviously proven wrong. I might have to try the toilet paper roll ornament, seriously! It doesn’t look anything like a TP roll when it’s finished! Oh – and I HAVE to do the pixelated boy. HAVE TO!

Man… this has got to be the weirdest post yet. I mean.. just thinking about using toilet paper rolls kind of freaks me out – but they have been crafted with! What a unique way to recycle!
