Floating Flower Tea Lights
To create a floating pool lantern, secure pieces of pool noodle together with a zip tie and insert candles into the holes. Plastic food wrap keeps the batteries from getting wet. You’re set for dreamy backyard pool time!.
I recently installed new gutters. I constructed ladder protectors out of an old swim noodle because I didn’t want my metal ladder to scratch or dent them when it came time to clean them out. (Foam pipe insulation would work, too. ).
I cut 2-ft. portions of the noodle, cut them with a razor, and adhered them to the ladder’s sides. They were ideal cushions! Tape the noodle on if it doesn’t stay in place. – David Gugliuzza.
Use a pool noddle for a DIY wreath form.
Use duct tape to secure the noodle, then wrap it in cloth, string, or ribbon. Tie wire around the stems of the fabric flowers and insert it into the noodle by poking it through the fabric. Hang the wreath with wire or a picture hook.
Pool Noodle Water Hose
Take out a pool noodle if you need to fill a bucket that is too big to fit under your sink’s faucet. Place the bucket on the ground, then cover the faucet with the noodle and run it down to the bucket.
Prevent Car Door Dings!
My car door has multiple dents from being opened and pounded against the garage wall. I was about to discard my grandkids’ pool noodles since they had outgrown them, but then it dawned on me, “Whoa, this could be the solution!”
Using a utility knife, I cut the pool noodle in half lengthwise and positioned it on the studs in my garage. The pool noodle should stay put on its own. Use construction cement or a few nails to secure the pool noodle to the studs for a more long-lasting fix. Voilá, no more door dings. — John Greene.
