While we’re on the topic of money-saving renovation improvements, here’s another creative homeowner who wasn’t going to be beaten by a busted showerhead. His immediate solution (and we can only hope this is just temporary) came in the form of duct tape, a soda can, and a whole lotta holes. You know what? This idea is so brilliant and seems to be working so well we’d almost back him keeping it as his permanent shower rig. Engineering level: boss.
We know this is more of a D.I.Y hack and less of a faulty design; however, we have a feeling that somebody out there is going to deliberately execute this as part of their new innovative design.
Road Tripping
You spend six months planning your gap year, marking the route on maps, saving up enough money to explore the world, and come back home with great stories to tell. Never in a million years could you imagine telling a story like this. A sight like this can only happen in Cambodia.
Ok, so you couldn't afford a sea or mountain view, but by the look of it, you couldn't afford a view at all. Now, between you and me, we don't mind having a view, but after traveling all day and exploring the country, we could use a bit of fresh air.
Renovating on a Budget
Who says home renovations have to break the bank? A fancy new faucet might set you back a bit, but why waste your funds when a simple plastic drinking straw can do the job in style? The best thing about it is you can get a whole packet of faucets for less than a dollar. And, as each one wears out, you get to change up the color.
Kitchen renovations just don’t get any cooler than that. So, why waste your money on expensive faucets and them complain the entire month that you have no money left for takeaway? hence, no dishes to wash, hence, no need for a faucet?
Leaning Tower of... Jeez, is That Thing Stable?
We can just picture the owners claiming that this isn’t a fault in the house; they totally designed it to emulate the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Their neighbors politely smile and nod, but deep down, everyone knows this was the product of a renovation disaster.
At least living in a leaning home would keep life interesting, right? And besides, when money is short, and the world recession is knocking on the door, let's pretend we are in Pisa, and let's pretend we don't really need to trave as we have everything just outside our door.
A most Important Message
This image is logic at its finest. “Gosh darn it, those neighbor dogs keep getting into our yard and pooping on the lawn. It has to be a problem with the gate. This sign should fix it... Closed and locked. Problem solved. Building the fence? Ah, I’ll worry about that another day.” Brilliant.
There is no way any dog, big or small, on the lead or of it, no one is getting through this one. This must have won the 2020 best innovative gadgets for a personal household award.
