9 Unexpected Ways to Use a Sponge

Make nail polish removal way easier with a nail polish remover jar. All you need is a jar with a lid, nail polish remover, and of course, a sponge. First, roll the sponge and place inside the jar. If the sponge is too large, cut it down to size. Next, pour nail polish remover into the jar until the sponge is completely submerged.

To remove nail polish, stick your finger inside the sponge and gently scrub. Replace the lid after every use.

Licking envelopes can be a thing of the past with the help of a damp sponge. Dip a corner of the sponge in room temperature water, and run it over the edges of the envelope.

Dryer sheets are not eco-friendly, and costs can add up quickly. Instead, use reusable dryer sponges. Place sponges in a sealable plastic container and soak them in a plant-based fabric softener to create a long-lasting product.
