Sometimes I discover a product that gets me so excited. It is not very often you find something with unlimited possibilities. A product that can fix pretty much anything, that you can create new things with, and improve how other things work. I have been playing around with Sugru for a couple of weeks and I love it! It is one of those things that once you have it, you think of a million uses for it.
This post is sponsored by Sugru but all ideas and opinions are 100% my own.
What is Sugru?
It is the world’s first mouldable glue. Once it gets exposed to air, it cures in 24 hours into a flexible rubber. It is completely waterproof and long lasting which means it can be used outdoors as well.
Sugru Hooks
In my secret garden, there is some ivy growing near the fence. I tried to tie it to the fence last year with string until it could get more established but it didn’t really work well. I mixed some of the white with black Original Formula to create a gray color that matched the fence.
I made small hooks and added them to the fence. Once the 24 hour cure time had passed, I was able to add the ivy vines. When Sugru dries, it is still flexible, so it was easy to bend them a bit to get the vine securely in the hook.
It looks so much cleaner! It no longer is piling up on the ground.
Sugru Customizes Keys
I added the Family Safe, Skin Friendly Sugru to the top portion of some keys.
I also used metal stamps to label them but you could skip that step and just keep them color coded.
Sugru Creates New Knobs
Our bathroom light was missing a little knob that holds the light onto the plate. I was using a hex nut in its place but since it was silver, it stuck out like a sore thumb. I added some black Sugru over the hex screw and you can’t even tell the difference between the original knob and the Sugru knob.
Our fan in the living room lost its knob and in order to turn it on and off and change the speed, we had to use pliers. I added some Sugru to the little green thing sticking out where the old knob was and it is as good as new!
Sugru Makes Phone Holder
When I bought my rowing machine, there was an option to buy a more expensive model that had a little thing on it that would hold your phone or tablet so you could watch shows while exercising. I’m too cheap to pay $50 more for such a small feature.
I was able to mold and add a little holder that perfectly fits my phone!
Sugru Adds Decoration
I added some white Sugru to some pots to customize them and make them a bit more fun! It is also helpful to add feet to pots for better drainage.
Sugru Fixes Tripod
I was able to fix the foot on my tripod that has been broken for years. I have tried using tape in the past but it always falls off or get bunched up.
Good as new and it just looks like the rubber ring so it blends in well.
Sugru & Shoes
My son has a favorite pair of shoes. He wears them when hiking, fishing, and doing jobs around the yard. He likes them because they are well worn and comfortable. When the shoe separated from the sole, he was upset. Even though I threw them away, he sneaked them back out and continued to wear them. I decided to see if I could fix them with some Sugru. It worked! And because the sole was black, you can barely tell!
Sugru Fixes Small Appliances
Don’t you hate it when one rubber “foot” comes off and gets lost? Then it wobbles for the rest of its life. So annoying!
I added some to the bottoms of my appliances that had them missing and now they are level and stable :)

This looks like a miracle product, long-awaited. Whoopee!
Cannot wait to try it!
I am all about the vines climbing the fence. I have moring glories all around my porch and I love it.
Sugru sounds amazing!! I could really use this.
Hanging pictures on wall.
This stuff looks amazing! I, too, have a fan missing a knob, lol. Would love to try this!
I would use it to fix a couple plastic toys, the leg on a small table easel as well your key idea. I’m sure I would find other uses as well.
I’d definitely use this to attach some hooks and brackets without drilling. Looks like a great product.
Sugru looks like a miracle product, with so many uses!
wow, its sounds like it has lots of uses. I would try them on my hoodies where the zipper part fell off and i’m sure ill use it around the house. Once i look around i’m sure i’ll find stuff to use it on.
I wonder if this could make a replacement for part of a vintage drawer handle? Anyway, looks like something useful to have around the house!
I would like to try this to put on the kids cups- with – their names & using different colors. I have a daycare & the kids enjoy having their own individual items. Thank you— for the chance to win. Have a great day!!
Our drying rack broke, and we haven’t been able to figure out how to reattach the bar. I think Sugru just might do the job.
I have a mat in the front of the house that needs repair. I am sure I can find 101 uses in MY HOUSE to use this moldable glue! Great give!
This looks like something i need in my repair kit! I would fix a number of broken and cluttered items.I have knobs and feet on items that need this.
I know exactly what I would like to fix- the one missing foot on the animal food dish rack! Came missing one and this will fix it perfectly! Thanks!
i would use it to make key chains andgarden holders
I could use Sugru to plug a couple of holes in my big watering trough that I use as a dipping pool to cool off in after gardening all day.
Like all of us, I have a few things jerry-rigged to make due. This sounds like a fun and simple way to get a more secure fix! Thank you, as always, for introducing me to new products! I love how you make all things look easy!
I always get blisters in my walking shoes. I would love to try it with shoes.
Really would love to try this, my list. To use this on is long
Oooh, wow .. this is something new I never heard before. Moldable glue, what a great idea!! I can fix so many things — like laundry baskets that needs new handle? Thank you for sharing and the chance!
Oooo! Lots of possibilities! Could I repair chipped pillar candles?
I’d LOVE to try!
Can’t wait to try it!
I am sure John can find lots of uses.
First I would use on my refrigerator drawer. One of the cheap plastic runners on one side broke. And I like for crafts and gardening too.
I would use it for starters to repair my bird feeder! And about a dozen other things! Love your fix-it ideas, just fabulous.
i can think of dozens of uses for Sugru.
Definitely repairing some plastic.
I would find many uses but would first use it to mend the missing rubber on my dishwasher racks. Next I would tackle my cracked refrigerator shelves! Sounds like a wonderful product!
I had a string of lights on my pre-lit christmas tree fray and isn’t working, I am wondering if this will fix it!
I’ve got some computer and appliance cords that need some extra support where they get bent too frequently. I also like that idea of using it in the dishwasher, on the bare spots on the rack. Definitely want to fix those spots.
Husbands favorite work shoe~
Fascinating product and looks totally awesome!
I love the key marking idea and also have a few toys my kids would like me to fix
I could imagine the uses for this piling up as you work around the house. I think it would work well for hiding cords behind a desk. We had the plastic on our sun visor mirrors get brittle and now the mirror is just attached by the electrical wires. I wonder if sugru would fix those.
Oh I’d use it in my dishwasher. I have some tips missing their end caps.
I can think of numerous things for this, particularly in my kitchen. I need to replace those rubber covers on my cast iron trivets. They are all splitting and getting lost, and Lord knows, I can’t find replacements anywhere. This sounds like a great product!
The knob on your fan gave me the idea of using it to fix the knob that snapped off of my dryer. It still works but looks terrible.
I have always thought there would never be a replacement for the little rubber feet on my small appliances! I want to win some Sugru!
Love how you added texture to the basic planters. My plant babies could use the upgrade!
I need this desperately for my clematis.
My air fryer is missing one of it’s runner legs, so I would definitely try it on that. I bet I will find a ton of uses for it once I have a better understanding of how it works.
I’m thinking “what wouldn’t I use it on?” . I would try to make hooks for my pot holders and measuring cups. I have a bare spot on my kitchen wall detective always wanted to hang them but it’s impossible because it’s covered brick.
My husband farms, I’m sure he would find many uses for it.
Getting this stuff right now – wow, so glad you brought this to my attention!
Wow this stuff is great. Lots of uses. I have many uses for this, thanks for bringing this to our attention. Love it.
This stuff looks amazing! It would make a good door stop along with many many other things around my house. Thanks for the chance to win!
I would use Sugru to fix a hose on m y boat
I’d like to see if i can make some custom hooks for my pegboard!
I have a couple of small chips in my bathroom tile. This looks like it could be helpful solution!
I want some ! How could a crafter/floral designer never hear about something so fantastic ?
One other thing I wanted to point out is my new crock. It’s another of my antique finds. I filled it with (mostly) vintage rolling pins. The red and green handled rolling pins bring in the colors of the season but will look great all year long. The two glass rolling pins are a nod to my maternal grandma. She always used a glass rolling pin. After she passed. my mom inherited that rolling pin. I mentioned to my mom how much I love it and that I was looking for a similar one. Mom was able to find one on eBay and gave it to me for my birthday. A couple of weeks later I happened upon one at an antique store. Now I have two. I do love how this little display looks.
Wow that is so unique and personalised. I love all your beautiful ideas…This would make a good gift for somebosy.sigiriya rock sri lanka
Beautiful Lucy! You must have been sending me creative vibes because I’m working on a very similar project for my final Easter post! Yay for pretty eggs. Have a great day and thanks always for the beauty you bring us.phool makhana natural
I would choose either the grill cover or the couch cover or maybe an umbrella cover. Choices choices. This year we moved our real furniture (sofa, love seat and chair) inside to utilize it during the winter but hopefully we won’t have the room next year.

I did much better with my second, giving her time to play and explore on her own. But now my oldest, who is 7, does expect to be entertained. Do you have any advice on how to help us change this habit? She comes to me looking for a playmate, I offer her a suggestion on what she can do, she goes off by herself or I play with her, then 10 minutes later, she is asking me for some other suggestion or to play with her again. It is an exhausting cycle and I would love to try and change it.Learn English
I feel more relaxed and connected just reading that. Their daily activities are so beneficial and spirited. It would be very relaxing to be in silence for the majority of each day, it gives you a chance to absorb your surroundings.

I hope that it won’t disappoint me as much as this one. After all, I know it was my choice to read, however I genuinely thought you’d have something useful to talk about. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you can fix if you weren’t too busy searching for attention.Kitchen Appliances
Your paper crafting skills are absolutely unmatched and the outcomes are extremely gorgeous. I was recently planning to gift something to my mother on her birthday and this handy little case would be a great idea to give a handmade touch to the presents. This looks absolutely fun and I can’t thank you enough for providing such great ideas every time.Electronics Store
