Make the most of the summer with creative Blu Tack® ideas for the whole family. From DIY games and crafts to clever travel and outdoor hacks, discover eight fun and practical ways to enjoy the season with resusable adhesive, Blu Tack®

1. Keep canvas in place

Whether you’re crafting indoors or painting outside, use Blu Tack® to hold your papers in place or secure a canvas when painting. Press small blobs onto each corner and secure it to your work surface, no more slips while you work. Plus, Blu Tack® is perfect for lifting your artwork from your work surface, making it easier to reach the edges of a canvas.

2. Create DIY dice

Lost your dice? Simply roll cubes from Blu Tack®, shape the sides using a ruler or flat surface and mark numbers with a pen. It's the ideal hack for spontaneous summer games.

3. DIY sunglasses holder for a car

Use a blob of Blu Tack® to create your own car sunglasses holder. It’s mess-free, repositionable and helps keep your sunglasses from sliding around during summer journeys.

4. DIY TIC TAC TOE

Create a noughts and crosses board on paper or card and mould X's and O's from Blu Tack®. Use different colours to make your game more fun and engaging.

5. Secure a DIY insect screen

Use Blu Tack® and insect netting to create a temporary bug screen for windows and doors. It's a simple way to help keep flying insects out without damaging surfaces.

6. Bracelet making

Press a slab of Blu Tack® onto your work surface and use it to hold beads steady while creating bracelets. This makes threading and arranging beads much easier.

7. DIY water reservoir for plants

Place a blob of Blu Tack® under a terracotta pot to help create a simple water reservoir that slowly hydrates plants during hot summer days.

8. DIY bookmark

Create a simple bookmark using a small blob of Blu Tack® to mark your place while enjoying your favourite summer reads.
