    Lightbulb Recycle your shower curtain

    You can recycle your shower curtain (even dollar store ones) by putting them in the washer on gentle cycle. Don't put in with anything sharp, and don't use liquid fabric softner (it will become slimey ) then hang to dry.

    You can use it for a drop cloth

    If it is in really bad shape, before you throw it out, cut the magnets out of the bottom. Just glue onto the back of a small picture frame, craft item whatever you can think of and WA LA,
    you have a new fridgee magnet! These are very strong ones!

    I just throw the shower curtain in the washer with a few towels. Hang back up to dry.
