I discovered an ingenious way to get the most out of empty pill pods instead of just throwing them away! In this article, I’ll share with you a number of creative and practical uses to give these little capsules a second life.
From storage solutions to surprising ideas for craft projects, you’ll learn how to put an innovative spin on an item that used to be considered simply waste.
Never throw away empty capsules again without first discovering all the possibilities they offer!
Trick to NOT throw away empty capsules
When we talk about pill capsules or medicines, we are referring to the plastic blister pack that contains them. In other words, while each tablet is being used, we must treat the sheet that covers it carefully.
We will surely use that part of the blister pack in the future, we will give it a second chance to refuse.
For this specific trick, do not rule out an LED bulb that has stopped emitting light, since, in fact, these problems can be solved very easily.
To do this we will need the following:
Materials:
- 1 Blister pack of pills or tablets (empty)
- 1 LED bulb or lamp (which stopped working)
- 1 Electrical Tape
- 1 Scissors
Procedure:
- Press lightly and open the screen of this lamp. We observe that one of the LEDs has turned black and is burnt out. Carefully, we dispose of it using a knife.
- Since one of the items is damaged, the others will not work. The contacts are already open, so we need to close them.
- When we take medicines, we often throw away small pieces of film. We just need this little piece of film or sheet.
- We take the size measurement of the sheet we need and get some tape.
- The sheet should match the metal piece of the lamp.
- We do the test of how the lamp or bulb works, once we make sure of this, we close it and secure it with adhesive tape.
- Some have been repaired and used for more than two years without breaking, while others have been in use for several months.
Amazing trick! We have repaired a burnt out lamp, saving money and protecting the environment
