Ode to the Bucket

 

I thought that all of you back home should get to know about all the awesome uses of buckets so you can start properly utilizing this unappreciated item in your home. Because on the World Race, buckets are VERY versatile and often times we use the same bucket to do many of the following things:

 

  1. Coffee maker and server
  2. Dirt carrier
  3. Trash receptacle
  4. Lizard egg incubator (we’re not actually sure if it worked, but we tried!)
  5. Drum
  6. Cement mixer
  7. Composter
  8. Shower 
  9. Organizational tool
  10. Toy
  11. Water storage
  12. Laundry machine
  13. Toilet flusher
  14. Chair
  15. Cleaning tool
  16. Manure transporter
  17. Food preparation and storage
  18. Display device for market items
  19. Dish washer
  20. Rain catcher for leaky roofs
  21. Plant pot
  22. Doorstop
  23. Fruit and veggie harvest tool
  24. Watering can
  25. Dustpan

My challenge today is for you broaden your horizons and use an old, tired bucket in a new, exciting way!  Or, just list other ways YOU have used buckets in the comment section.
