How to Make a Back Scrubber

You can make a back scrubber from a loofah sponge.

A back scrubber is a shower tool that facilitates washing your back. If you can’t find a back scrubber you like in a store, consider making one yourself using a few basic items. Not only will this save you money, but you will have a customized scrubber you had the pleasure of making yourself.

Things You'll Need

• Wooden paint stirrer
• Polyurethane
• Paint brush
• Wax paper
• Loofah
• Superglue

Instructions

1. Pick up a wooden paint stirrer, which are long, thin wooden sticks often given out for free at building supply stores.

2. Using a paint brush, coat the paint stirrer with a thin, even coat of clear polyurethane. Polyurethane can be found at building supply stores or craft stores and protects the wood from water damage.

3. Lay the paint stirrer on a sheet of wax paper and let dry thoroughly, at least three hours.

4. Attach a loofah sponge to the top of one end of the paint stirrer with an even line of Super Glue, which won’t wear down when wet.

5. Let the glue dry before using the back scrubber.
