[DIY for Life] MUST READ! Save office workers’ feet!!!!! Socks dryer!!!!!!

Hello guys!
It’s time to share DIY FOR LIFE!

Have you guys ever bothered by the same problem as me?
Summer is coming, which means plum rain season is not far behind
I HATE raining T_T

Shoes usually get wet on the way to the company in a raining day.
Then, socks will be wet inside and outside, making me uncomfortable all day long. 
What’s worse, it is possible to get athlete’s foot due to the feet soaking in the wetting and humid socks. 

Maybe I should have bought a pair of flip-flops lest it rain that the tragedy happens. 

In the office, 
no clean socks to put on
no hair dryer to blow wet socks dry
let alone take off my shoes and socks lol

So, let’s DIY to solve the problem about my wetting socks as I’m in the office!

Let’s do it!!!
※ What should we prepare for it?
USB fan, file-holder ropes, binder clips, bottle, a pair of scissors, box cutter, power bank

All the materials are easy to get in your office :)

Step1. On the air inlet side, thread the file-holder ropes through four holes to make a knot

 Step2. On the air outlet side, thread a rope through two holes to be the one to hang socks

Step3. Wash bottle clean, cut off the upper part of the bottle and rim

Step4. Cut out strips of bottle (the part to stuff into wet socks)

※ as illustrated in the picture above


Step5. Hang your dryer device onto any kind of holder (I take all-purpose umbrella as the holder :p ), fix wet socks with binder clips onto the rope, and connect USB pin into power bank to start the fan

  Experimental result
15:36pm Start to blow socks dry
16:45pm Just an hour, the wet socks have already been dried 90%; only the                    fore-end part of socks is still a bit wet

※put it upside down to dry 
17:00pm It’s dried inside and outside!!!!!!!

How useful the dryer device it is!
It just took an hour and few minutes to dry socks! 
No more soaking my feet in the wet socks
the problem to be solved totally >:)

Hope you guys would like the idea I share with you.

【DIY for Life- Fast fragrance dispenser】

What kind of fragrance air refreshener do you choose?

There are a variety of refresheners sold to the public, the smells too strong to accept for being in my bedroom. :-/
That such strong and strange fragrance just makes me feel I’m in the toilet lol
That’s why I’d like to make certain aroma refrshener myself. 

Well, my sister used to putting a scented bag of Snuggle in the closet intrigues me a lot to make this DIY one to show you. 

Let’s check it out!!!

***The materials we need is as below：

UBS fan, cleaned carton-pack beverage, scented bag, box cutter, take-it, power bank

  

Step1. Tear the opening of carton open, and cut some holes on the bottom to make air circulation

Step2 . Stick the take-it onto the carton to fix the USB fan



Step3. Put the scented bag into the carton, and put the USB fan at the opening of it

  

※ Remember to make the air vent of fan toward the bottom of carton!!!!!!


Step4. Plug the USB cabin into the port of power bank to start the fan, and it’s done!

 

Actually, I prefer putting the scented bag everywhere I need;
It would be too much fragrance to be dizzy! :@
For example, to make the musty coat refreshed or to ease the food smell from the clothes. 

    

This such fan refreshener spread the fragrance much widely, effectively, and fast.




It is pretty convenient to put it in the closet. 
Non-occupied and mobile!!!

But first, wash the carton clean lest it may welcome ants :p 

You can place it anywhere you want, besides in the closet and the bedroom. 

(in the bathroom as below)

By the way, I wonder if there is another kind of fragrance material to be used.  
Is there any better advice about the aroma material? 
Don’t hesitate to make some comments below :-)


Hope you like the idea for DIY I share with you guys. 
Let’s do it right now! <3<3

【 DIY for Life】Girls!!! How fast could you dry your brushes out?

Does the same problem bother you? 
Does it take so long to dry your brushes for cosmetics?

Girls know that it’s the routine to clean your brushes once a week to keep your face away from allergy. 

However, it’s not that easy to dry brushes in a cold winter. 
It always takes almost over a day to kill my patience. 

And you know it, all the brushes need to be air-dried naturally!
You cannot use a blower with hot air or put it under the big sun to dry it out. 
If you dry it out by heat, you have to buy a new one then lol

It’s dried quickly after washing it in a summer almost within 1 day.
But it takes over 1 day in winter.



Therefore, I came up with an idea to solve such an annoying problem.  
Let me share my DIY for drying brushes with you girls!
Quickly and effectively drying the brushes!

↑eww, dirty powder brush


Let’s do it!!!
What should we prepare for it?


→USB fan, power bank, powder brush, paperweight, notebook(to keep the fan stable)

Step 1 . Lightly tap the wet brush to cast off extra water

Step 2. Connect USB port to power bank to start the fan; put a notebook under the fan to keep it stable while vibrating

Step 3. And the last one! Put your brush onto the paperweight (picture as below)

  
Isn’t it pretty convenient huh?
a USB fan, a brush
and only getting power to put all the stuffs on the dressing table

Magically, it just took me almost two hours and half to dry my powder brush!  
You girls should try this way!!!

 

  
Look! 
The hair of brush is still fluffy!


This useful DIY method totally solves my problem about drying brushes in winter days. 
As long as you turn on the fan to blow the brush, 
you will get a brush like a brand new one :D

  
                                             BEFORE

                               
                  AFTER

※ Comparison between BEFORE and AFTER
The fluffy head of brush is still perfect! 


Hope you girls like my DIY, sharing with you! :)

【DIY for life】A comfy place for shoes

I have lived in Taipei since I was born.
However, I am still not used to the weather here, raining often. 

It rains heavily especially in plum rain season, making me be sick of the humid and muggy Taipei. 
Rain always makes me feel blue blue and blue :-o

There is a big problem bothering me for a long time!
The shoes cabinet smells due to the stuffy and closed environment. 
The ventilation in the cabinet is not good and there are many shoes in it, making the shoes cabinet give out a stinking smell. :-x

Look!!!

Although there are blinds on the door of shoes cabinet, the air in it does not circulate well, making the environment easy to be humid.

To keep air circulating well, I have tried the way to open the doors, but it made the corridor narrower and narrower.

Obviously, this way is not the best one to solve my problem. :-S

The smelly shoes cabinet is a big big nightmare to my family totally!!!

Therefore, I quest for a better method to keep it in good ventilation and to ease the bad smell. 

I did DIY with USB fan, used for cooling my Bi Box last time :p

I think it may put certain effect on my shoes cabinet as well!!!

What should we prepare for it?

→USB fan, magnet set(magnet x2+ screw x2), strong magnet x2, screwdriver, power bank, 3M Polyfoam tape, a pair of scissors

*Let’s do it

Step 1. Lock the magnets and screws onto one side of the USB fan  

Step 2. Stick 3M Polyfoam tape onto the door, and stick the strong magnets with it ( illustrated as below)

Step 3. Put the USB fan locked with magnets onto the door (as below)

Done :-D

Step 4. And the last step! the USB cabin connect with the power bank to start the fan

The door of shoes cabinet can be open and close well even if we install a USB fan on it, because the USB fan is light and small! 

LOOK!!!!!!!How easy and convenient it is to install!I know you guys wonder if this method keep the air ventilation in a better condition effectively?The answer is YES!!!The bad smell from shoes cabinet has eased a lot, and it keeps the air in closed environment much refreshing.The DIY device did solve my problem : )
It’s pretty glad to share my DIY for life with you guys getting the same problem as me Hope you like it!

【DIY for Life】Mi Box never ever be overheated!!!

As for me, I am indeed the luckiest one in the world to own such amazing friends around me.
No matter how my life goes on, they are always by my side. <3

My friends gave me a big big surprise on my 24^th birthday last month.

Guess what????? 

BINGO!!!!!!!

Mi Box!!!!!!!!!!
It is the bomb right now!
They can read my mind totally. <3
This is the very birthday gift I am craving for so long.


Everyone knows I am a TV-loving person that I often watch TV all day long at weekends to be relaxed
It is convenient enough to have Mi Box at home, because I can not only watch TV programs but movies as well.

However, there is a problem bothering me a bit. The set-top box is too small and black to be noticed on such my chaotic table…….lol

And silly me!
It is easily made to fall off from the table to the floor lol

What’s worse, it might be overheated after being used all day long!!!
I am worried about how long it could be operating x-(



So I make such the useful devise to cool down the temperature of Mi Box. B-)

What should we prepare for it?
→ USB Fan, box, foam, metal fan grill, box cutter, Polyfoam tape

Prepared?
Let’s do it!



Step1.
Cut your box in square shape/ cut the foam as big as the size of the box, then hollow it out in square shape as the size of USB Fan

Step2.

Stick the square frame of foam onto the box

Step3 .

Install the metal fan grill on the USB fan (to keep any kind of stuffs away)

Step4.

Hollow out a small hole on the bottom of box
Finally, plug the USB cabin into the USB port of Mi Box

And, all is done!!!!!!! : )

LOOK!!!!!!!

how useful it is and easy to be made!
and we do conserve the recycled resource
SAVE the energy :-D

Magically, the problem of overheated box has been resolved, and I will not make it fall off to the floor over and over!!!
What’s better, USB fan is slim, silent, and light

USB Fan can be used with any kind of set-top box with USB PORT!!!
That’s why I take USB fan as the option.
And it can solve the thermal problem, which is the most important merit of it.

Are you ready for DIY?
Let’s check every step ;-)
Hope you guys would like my idea for DIY.

PS. I’m going to watch TV series to enjoy my Saturday night lol
