Binder Clips are used in offices and homes for paper work, but Binder Clips can be used for a number of things, like arts and crafts and tubes of products, like Toothpaste and Denture Adhesive. I really have to give the credit to a very special 93 year old lady that I helped assist in her home until she passed on. Her Name is Annie. Thank you Annie, I want you to know that I have learned so many things from you. And you are missed.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Binder Clips
  • Toothpaste
  • Denture Adhesive
  • Your Imagination
  1. Step 1
    Black Binder Clips.

    Binder Clips come in black and multi-color, making it better for whatever you decide to do with them.

  2. Step 2
    Toothpaste and Denture Adhesive Half used.

    Toothpaste, Denture Adhesive, Preparation H and etc., to use these products you have to squeeze from the bottom to get the product to the opening, leaving a lot of excess material just looking sloppy, empty and taking up space.

  3. Step 3
    Toothpaste and Denture Adhesive half used, but Look Neater, and take up less space.

    With the Binder Clips on the end of the products, all you have to do is open and barley squeeze, plus they are more compact and look a lot neater. Just roll up the ends as the product is used, and place the Binder Clip back on the rolled up end. There are a lot of tools you can purchase just for this, but for me, they don't work as well as the Binder Clips.

Tips & Warnings
  • Binder Clips can be used on any tube type product.
  • Binder Clips can also be used for small projects, like for instance, you can use to press/hold glued items together until dry.
  • Binder Clips can be addicting, use your imagination with caution, and prepare to buy more.
