As you are going through your sock drawer (or if you’re like me and you keep stray pairs hoping to find the match one day), wait no longer to give a second life to those socks. Here are some creative uses for those orphaned socks…
*Make a hand puppet. Add yarn or string for hair, button eyes, felt-fabric lips (or just use a marker). Scrap pieces of fabric make great earrings or funky glasses.
*Packing. Cut those socks up and use them as packing for your next gift to family members. Smelly or not it would be a nice courtesy to your recipient to to add some lavendar or rosemary.
*Speaking of … What about making a drawer freshener potpourri bag? Dry some lavendar or rosemary and fill your sock and tie with a recycled bow.
*Cat toy. Get creative!
*Winter socks. Mismatched socks are perfect for throwing on when sending the kids out for some sledding or snowman-building.
*Swiffer sock. Avoid buying new swiffer pads and opt to use old socks and wash them after use.
*Dust rag. Slip over one hand and you’ve got yourself an easy-to-use dust rag. Reuse.
Hope you enjoyed these tips!
