Uses for Shelf Liner

By Noreen 4 Comments




By Noreen Doll.

I originally bought this rubbery shelf liner to line the shelves in my kitchen cupboard. I like it because the dishes don’t move once they’re set in place. And it also cushions them.

Then I began to see all kinds of other ways I could use the shelf liner, and now I like to keep a roll handy.

It comes in several colors and it is machine washable, although I just wipe mine off.

You can find it at Target, Walmart, or the Dollar Store.

Creative Uses for Shelf Liner.

Use Under a Cutting Board.

My cutting board tends to slip on the counter when I use it, so I cut a piece of shelf liner smaller than the board.  When I set the board on the shelf liner, it doesn’t move at all.

For my large cutting board I use a rectangular piece of shelf liner that is about 8 x 12 inches.

For other uses, a 5 or 6 inch square is very handy.

Grip a Jar Lid.

I cut a 5 1/2 inch square of shelf liner that works perfectly to grip a jar lid when I am opening a new jar of food.

Hold a Bowl in Place.

This same square holds a bowl firmly in place when I am grating carrots or lemon peel.

Under a Small Cutting Board.

I also use this small square under my small cutting board.

Tool Grip.

This square is also handy for getting a better grip when using  a tool, such as pliers or a screw driver.

Toolbox Liner.

And it makes a great toolbox liner.

Get a roll of this shelf liner and cut it into 8×12 rectangles and 5 or 6 inch squares. Share them with family and friends, along with creative ideas for using them.

What handy uses for shelf liner do you have?

    I put it under my Cuttlebug to keep it from moving around. I use it to line the bottoms of pencil holders to keep the lead from breaking when dropped back in.

    Thanks for the tips on ways to use the rubbery shelf liner. I don’t have much gripping strength so this should really help when opening lids that are on too tight for me.

    I just bet they would be good lining for the bottom of an eyeglass holder to keep your glasses from banging on the bottom of the holder.

    use the colored ones (purple or other pretty colors) over white table cloths as a table runner. I also use them also around vases, hot glue them together and tie with a ribbon and put silk flowers in the vases/jars. Pretty and cheap.
