We take our old clear vinyl shower curtain, clean it up, and tightly staple it a piece of plywood. Our son uses it as an outdoor drawing board. It’s basically a big dry erase board.

I think like you – an empty container, what can I do with it? Trouble with this is you can accumulate a lot of empty containers and now that I’ve moved to a smaller place, I hate to have much clutter. Think I’ll go out on the net and find out what I can do with my empty coffee cans. I’ve made good use of small pill bottles and jars, however.

Would have never thought of any of those great ideas! Most I ever used them for was rags.

Fern, are those bamboo curtains (That had a different menaing in the 1960′s, 70′s!) bamboo sticks or bamboo fabric? I’ve heard that the processing of bamboo into fabric is a very polluting process. Seems like we can’t win for losing.

Actually, I’ve used one to protect my floor while painting a room. It’s thicker and seems to work better than those “plastic wrap” ones that you buy in the paint department.

Instead of a vinyl liner you can use a bamboo curtain. I have priced them, they’r ea little expensive, but would be a totally healthy addiiton to your home.

To Fern,
Wow. I know about BPA and so now have eliminated a lot of it from our home, but I did not know shower curtains are dangerous. What are the alternatives? I rent my home, so I cannot install a shower door or anything.
