How to make a hiding place in the kitchen
I was recently in a gift shop where my attention was drawn to a seemingly useless item—a jar of peanut butter that was empty inside. I didn’t understand the essence of this souvenir, but I came up with the idea of how to make a small hiding place in which you can store small valuables or a cash stash.
I took the idea from a souvenir I saw: there should be emptiness inside the jar. Only instead of peanut butter I decided to use corn kernels. My logic is simple: thieves will see peanut butter and might want to try it, and then they found a stash. And a can of corn certainly won't attract attention. You can also take any other product: buckwheat or peas.
Necessary materials:
Having collected all the necessary components, I proceeded as follows:
1. Removed the sticker from the bottle and dried the container well. By the way, the jar should also be dry.
2. I inserted the bottle bottom down into the jar.
3. I drew a line on the bottle along the very edge of the neck of the can and cut it with scissors along this mark.
After this, it remains to fill the internal space between the wall of the can and the bottle. It turned out to be easy to do: the plastic bottle bends and you can freely fill even large grains.
Having filled the entire space, I shook the jar a little, after which I needed to add more, since the large grains were well compacted.
This is how it turned out to be a jar with a secret, which is absolutely inconspicuous in the kitchen. You can store valuable jewelry, keys or money in it.
