When the unexpected happens, so does a blog post. This is for @pinkgecco – “25 Things to Do With a Pot Lid Once You’ve Broken the Pot.”
- Kitchen sink rag/sponge/scrubber holder
- Doorstop
- Spoon rest
- Use it as a bookmark/bookholder so you can read the recipe book without holding it
- Hadrian’s Wall – the sequel
- Break it into pieces and make a mosaic on the coffee table
- Frisbee
- Macrame a planter around it
- Put legs on it and use it as an occasional table
- Let the kids use it in an art project (bonus points for fairies and/or princesses)
- Put it under the wobbly table leg so the table sits straight for once
- Paperweight
- Tray to keep your jewelry on at night
- iPhone charging station
- Postcard display tray
- Cake plate
- Suncatcher
- Curling rock
- Emergency bailing bucket (handy for those Sunken Canoe Trips)
- Fire starter (bonus points if it’s for science)
- Ping pong paddle
- Curling iron stand
- Cheese and cracker plate
- Ant farm lid
- Use it in place of the other lid that you broke last week
Or you can do what Steph suggested and carry it around to garage sales until you find a dish that matches. You’re welcome!
