What's the strangest thing you've used your supplies for? My husband was insistent that I do this for him - - Red vinyl on the hubcaps for his 32 Roadster

I use my supplies for all kinds of things. My friends sometimes have gatherings where everyone brings a soup or stew. I’ve made labels for them. I’ve made a giant sign for a play that our kids were in. I’ve also used my supplies for placecards and gift wrap. I’ve set up a mini photo shoot spot for cupcakes and other small things with my paper

I have used Scor-tape to fix tennis shoes, reattach Formica strips on the kitchen cabinets, used my heat gun to apply shrink wraps to my tool handles.

I’ve used my paper trimmer for hubbys work stuff. Washi tape on various things for his work stuff. And my deal scouting—I use that for his purchasing for his store. I’m an experts shopper!

I’ve used my Cropadile to punch holes in belts and purse handles. Fore several years I’ve been trying to glue a plastic leg on an old small music box that belonged to my grandmother. I’d tried white glue, super glues, and rubber cement and none of them worked. Last weekend I tried using Judikins Diamond Glaze and finally the leg is back on.

My son used a bunch of supplies and tools on his school projects.
Recently he used those tiny Prima milk bottle mulberry flowers in his diorama. Most of my scrapbook stash is up for grabs for his monthly project where the variety of decoration seems to dictate his grade.

I gave my son free range to decorate his Valentine's box for school from my stash. Still crafty related but not scrappy.

Does using my Crop-o-dile to fix purses and belts count? Usually to punch a hole, but I have used some brads and eyelets, too.

I use Washi tape on my prescription bottles, so I can tell them from DH's at a glance.
I've used adhesives on several things.

I've used the cricut to make a stencil for painting our name & number on our mailbox. I use my ATG for gluing my envelopes when they don't stick down flat. Many years ago, I used my trimmer to cut our wallpaper border so it was straight. I've used my twine to tie up plants in our landscaping and the Cropadile to put holes in belts.
I'm sure there are others, just can't think of them right now as I know there's been times that DH has asked "Do you have something to...".

I’ve used vinyl on pretty much anything that doesn’t move (and a few things that do, LOL) including water bottles, our new mailbox, decals to customize DH’s trap rifle, accessories to customize Halloween costumes. We’ve used stickers, paper, chipboard and other stuff for school projects and to make teacher gifts. I’ve made decor things for my studio and DD’s bedroom. I’ve used ribbon to make hair bows that match her outfits for DD to wear in her hair on school picture day.

Since washi tape seems to go bad, I have been using my stash for everything and anything I can think of to use it up.
1. Used it to hold a screw (like a third hand) when I put together my Raskog.
2. Tape up reminders for my family, when I go out of town
3. Tape packaging back up when necessary. Like the jumbo pack of AA batteries.
4. Make temporary labels for things.
5. Tape it around my SB tools when needed to distinguish mine from other's tools.
That is all I can think of at the moment.
