16. Straws as Flower Holders
Viakphengwai.com
When your significant other gives you a beautiful bouquet of flowers (because that happens all the time), you can keep those buds looking nicer for longer with some drinking straws. Simply cut the straw to the desired length and slip the flower stem into it. This helps the flowers to stand up straighter and avoid that bent over, wilted look (which happens after like, 5 minutes.) Now even the most unstable and top-heavy blossoms can look great for a longer period of time. You can even awaken your inner florist and create appealing floral arrangements, using the drinking straws as nice helping tools.
15. Buttons as Earring Holders

Tired of losing earrings or their backs? These tiny pieces are infuriating and seem to disappear super easily. Well now you don’t have to shell out your hard-earned cash for some over-priced earring holders or jewelry box. Simply grab a button (there are always spare ones attached to jackets, coats, pants, blouses, etc.) Buttons have anywhere from one to four holes, making them a great little accessory for keeping your earrings safe and in one spot. Now you don’t have to scramble around your floor in a frantic search for your earring back. Life just got a little bit easier.
