DIY Diva | 5 Easy Steps to Reuse an EOS
I live off of chap stick. My lips are always dried and chapped. Which means I go through chap stick like crazy! Last year during all the gift giving I received 3 EOS, and now they are almost flat. Instead of throwing them away, I have found a clever way to reuse them for traveling or at home. Earring Holders!
The egg shape is perfect to fit a few pairs of earrings in when traveling! Here's a little How To:
First | Supplies: Scissors | Bobby Pin | Empty EOS chap stick
Second | Scrape the excess chap stick off of the egg. I used a bobby pin, because what girl doesn't have one lying around? You'll get down to a little plastic web and try to get off as much of the chap stick as you can.
Third | Rinse out with water. {Both the lid and the bottom} You don't have to do this, but it helped me because it got off lots of the little pieces and the slippery texture that the chap stick gives.
Fourth | Take your scissors and carefully cut each limb of the web until the whole thing comes out. Then remove the piece out of the egg and throw it away.
Fifth | Rinse out the lid and the bottom one last time to get everything out. Then take a paper towel to get out the water, and your egg is ready for earrings!
Keeping it Classy and Classic,
