[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. 
Make some comments below as support for me, thanks you xoxo

【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!
