A fresh piece of fruit with every meal is never a bad idea! However, if you’re a fan of sliced apples, you probably know the frustration when those sliced pieces go brown in just a couple of hours. That’s where a rubber band comes in: simply try to rebuild the apple and hold it together with a band. No more brown spots!
Limit the portions on soap dispensers
Some soap or shower gel dispensers can go absolutely crazy in terms of the amount being pushed out, but there’s a quick method to save some soap (and money). Tightly wrap a band right underneath the dispenser opening, making it harder to fully press it down. In other words, less soap or gel will be dispensed.

Break out a rubber band

 

Wrap a rubber band around the bottle cap crown and start twisting. The cap should pop off in a little while.
Stretch your jeans a little bit further
A pair of jeans that is slightly too tight is definitely a frustrating situation, but a simple elastic band might be able to help out. You can make your jeans fit a little bit better by using a rubber band as a loop between the button and the button opening. Handy!
Keep books safe on the go
If you like having a book on you at all times, this small yet nifty trick will definitely come in handy. It’s important to keep your books closed when you’re on the go, or you might have to deal with some damage to the pages. Always have a rubber band nearby to keep your book closed.
Build your own simple toothbrush holder
The most genius ideas usually don’t look all that fancy, but practicality is definitely more important than fanciness in this case. Create your own elastic band grid around a tall glass or cup to build a DIY toothbrush holder. Organizing toothbrusher just got a lot cleaner!
Add some color to drinks
Well, not really, but you can use small and colored rubber bands to identify drinks. Whenever you’re together with some friends or family, chances are multiple people will want to have the same drink and somehow, those beverages will definitely get mixed up. Grab a small and colored rubber band and thread it though the tab. A quick and handy fix!
Save-spacing when you travel
Always keep doors (slightly) open
If you’d like to keep the doors in your house open at all times, or don’t want to make a lot of noise by accidentally slamming the door open for everyone to hear, this truck will come in handy. Simply grab an elastic band and loop it around both doorknobs in an X-shape. This quick trick will keep the door slightly open.
Get creative with paint
If you’re a creative person, you’ll just love the versatility that a couple of rubber bands can offer. For example, did you know you can use them to make some sweet outdoor striped laterns? Simply wrap them around a jar and paint directly over them – it’ll create a professional-looking effect that will definitely satisfy your inner artist.
Create better hangers
Hangers are really essential in a closet, but they can be a bit of pain because some clothes will definitely have to urge to slide right off. However, there’s no need to buy those expensive anti-slip hangers, because a simple rubber band is an excellent DIY ‘upgrade’ that will keep your clothes from sliding off.
Keep spoons from sliding
Open stuck jars
When you’re dealing with a stuck jar, it seems like you need to have some kind of divine power to get them open because you can’t quite get a grip on the lid. However, you definitely will by wrapping a rubber band around the lid. In fact, you’ll have those stubborn jars open in one-two-three.
Use it as a painting lifesaver
