No, this is not a blog about how to put your dishes in the dishwasher properly. Believe me, that is better left to your manufacturer. I have melted and broken enough things in my lifetime to sink a battleship!
I decided to write this when I thought of hiding counter clutter in the dishwasher one day when unexpected company arrived. Then I kept thinking what else I could use this contraption for in my crazy world. And, here you go.
Who hasn’t used it to wash hats? But what other clothing can it hold and clean? If you are willing to put a hat in there, really, there are no limits…shoes? Sandals?
What about using it to temporarily dry your larger pots and pans after manually dishwashing? Of course, it would need to be empty, or, at least empty enough to hold what you have just washed.
My dog thinks stacked dirty dishes in the dishwasher are the equivalent of a major dog treat! (I always tell her no, but she is yet to actually listen!). I wash most of her chew toys in there, too. She might soon learn to open the door herself!
I’ve seen people wash rubber boots in them. No way to know how that all turns out.
Knowing the value of hot water, a few candle-dripped items have been renewed in there.
If you see things not as they are, but what they can potentially be, you are a creative sort, too! This is what we do at ProLine Supply Company, taking ordinary items and making their use other than expected. A clear plastic tube becomes a smores gift adorned with chocolate bars, mini marshmallows and graham crackers.
How about the step stool that is turned over becoming a basket for a move-in gift?
Anyway, you get the idea. We see life differently. Even a dishwasher isn’t safe.
