Upon reading the title of this, you might be thinking “What on earth is Sugru?” Well, we like to think of it as adult silly putty for DIYers. We wrote about Sugru a year ago, and are still totally swooning over everything it can do.

You can use it to repair a distressed electrical cord, mend a cracked dishwasher, or even kid-proof a camera. Now, we’re happy to bring you an article straight from the founder of Sugru, Jane ni Dhulchaointigh, on 10 ways you can use sugru to breathe new life into vintage treasures. We’ll let Jane take it from here!
