That headline is about reusing detergent caps in clever, practical ways—they’re surprisingly handy once you stop tossing them. Here are the best “worth gold” reuses that actually make sense:
Smart Ways to Reuse Detergent Caps
🧴 1. Measuring Cups
- Perfect for liquid fertilizers, vinegar, bleach, or plant food
- Clear measurement lines make dosing easy and precise
🌱 2. Seed Starters
- Great size for starting herbs or flowers
- Poke a small hole in the bottom for drainage
🧽 3. DIY Cleaning Mixers
- Use as a mixing cup for baking soda + vinegar or other cleaners
- Keeps ratios consistent every time
🖌️ 4. Paint or Glue Cups
- Ideal for small craft projects, touch-up paint, or wood glue
🧂 5. Scoop for Pet Food or Ice Melt
- Strong plastic, easy to grip
- Much better than flimsy scoops
💡 6. Drawer & Garage Organizers
- Sort screws, nails, beads, coins, or batteries
🕯️ 7. Emergency Candle Mold
- In a pinch, they can be used as molds for homemade candles (with care)
🌼 8. Travel Containers
