When we buy canned fruits, pickles, milk, and drinks, there are many styles that are packaged in glass bottles. After using the glass bottle, many people feel that it takes up space, so they choose to throw it away.
However, when I saw the netizens’ ideas for the transformation of glass bottles, I realized that it was too “loser” before. It turns out that used up glass bottles have so many magical uses, from “useless” to “treasure”!

1. Replace the water cup
The glass bottle can be used as a simple water bottle, especially for the older generation. Although not as refined as a dedicated water bottle, it is very practical as a temporary replacement. Delicate small glass bottles with online stoppers can also be turned into portable water cups, which are popular among young people.

2. Store miscellaneous grains
Compared with plastic bottles, glass bottles are more suitable for long-term storage of cereals. Glass bottles are not easy to age and have a good seal, which makes the kitchen more tidy. It is advisable to purchase a special stopper to ensure a tightness.

3. Pickled vegetables
Glass bottles are ideal containers for pickles, with a good seal and easy to preserve. Netizens shared that the pickles marinated in glass bottles are especially good for rice, and they are even reluctant to throw away the bottles.

4. Liquid packaging
Liquids such as soy sauce, vinegar, and hand sanitizer are portioned into glass bottles, which not only makes the space tidier, but also improves the ease of use. Uniform glass bottles with spouts and labels keep kitchen countertops more organized.

5. Mosquito repellent aromatherapy
In summer, you can make your own mosquito repellent aromatherapy in a glass bottle. Add water, toilet water and vitamin B1 to the bottle and insert a bamboo skewer. You can also pour the aromatherapy liquid directly to let the room stay fragrant for a long time.

6. Hydroponic green plants
The glass bottle is an ideal container for hydroponic greenery, suitable for handicapped parties. Choose a beautiful glass bottle, use purified water or dried tap water, place it in a light environment, change the water every week and add a nutrient solution, and easily achieve green freedom.

7. Homemade table lamp
Making a creative table lamp out of a glass bottle is both eco-friendly and fun. You can buy a rechargeable lamphead to insert into the bottle mouth, or make a plug-in table lamp by hand. Add water and greenery to the bottle to both look beautiful and increase stability.

8. Replace the rolling pin
The glass bottle can be used as a temporary rolling pin, the effect is not inferior to that of professional tools, and it is environmentally friendly and pollution-free. When I was a child, my mother used a beer bottle to roll out dumpling wrappers, which was simple and practical.

9. Glass bottle candle holder
Glass bottle candle holders not only create ambiance, but also remove odors. The carbon black particles produced when the candle is burned have an adsorption effect, making it suitable for removing the smell of hot pot or smoke.

How do you clean glass bottles?
When cleaning the glass bottle, you can use a hair dryer to heat the bottle label, or apply wind oil essence and let it sit to peel off. The inside of the bottle can be rinsed with warm water, dried and disinfected with high liquor. Do not use boiling water to avoid the bottle breaking.
