Milk is a basic ingredient in any household, but it's a waste to use it just for drinking, when you can put it into many more uses that will make your life easier while also saving you money! Here are 13 examples of things you can do with milk besides drinking it! |

Fix cracked porcelain and china dishes
Put the cracked tools in a big pot. Fill the pot with 2 cups (or more) of milk and heat on a low fire for an hour. Let it cool and wash it. This will wash away the signs of the crack.
Best to use after gluing.
