New use for old toothbrush!

we also use them to clean nooks and crannies - especially around the sinks and faucets. my husband likes them for cleaning out his razors. I also find them useful at dishes time - to clean between the tines of the forks - sometimes something will get crusty in there and hard to wash out.

I do have a use for my old toothbrushes. I use them to clean under my finger nails when I have some grime under them after I have been cleaning. I also use it to take a little toothpaste and toothbrush and clean my jewelry with it. Toothpaste is very good for cleaning diamonds, makes them shine nicely!

hi jill! ^__^ yeah. i find new uses for my old toothbrushes. it just seems like a waste to throw them away and toothbrushes are mostly plastic so it would be environment-friendly if we recycle them. i use one of my old toothbrushes when cleaning my brassieres. ^__^;; i have lots of underwire brassieres and i don't wash them in the washing/laundry machine because it might tear apart. so i hand wash them and since i can't thoroughly wash them without brushing it and i don't want to use those big scrubs/brushes, i use an old toothbrush. ^__^;; and then, i also use one of my old toothbrushes when cleaning/polishing my nails. the nail brush got lost so i improvised and use an old toothbrush. now the bristles are all pink. ^__^;;

yes i keep all my old toothbushes,for cleaning,i often clean the flyscreen door with the toothbrush as it has all sorts of nooks and crannies on the iron door.i also use my toothbrush for speckle painting as well.it is also good for kids to paint with .cheers sue

I use my old toothbrush in cleaning my comb or hair brush and my rubber shoes also cleaning jewelry.

Oh Jill I do this to, I keep a selection under the sink with my cleaning products but I also keep one with the shoe shine bits as I find it very useful to use on the soles of trainer type shoes to get the mud out. My little one loves muddy puddles bless and always seems to jump in them when wearing shoes with a load of tread in the soles. In fact most things in my home get used for a different purpose after there original use. Clothes that are too worn to go to charity shop usually end up as a painting t-shirt or duster of somesort. Cereal boxes ususally end up in the art box to be glued together by the kids to make a wonderful sculpture of some sort and even the shredded paper goes as extra bedding for the rabbits and guinea pigs.

I use my old tooth brushes to clean my jewerly. It works great. In fact on sterling silver I use tooth paste (PASTE not gel) and and tooth brush, it works wonders.

I actually bought a container with 12 toothbrushes for $1 at the dollar store for the purpose of cleaning only! Of course for $1 you know they are the cheap kind plus I use a special brush so would never use them for myself anyway. Other than cleaning I've never come up with another use for them since I don't paint or anything like that.
