Over the years, my husband came home from conferences and brought home carabiners in different sizes and shapes. So, I began to think, what can we do with all these carabiners? Well, here are 9 ways to use carabiners in your home:
Awesome Ways to use Carabiners to make life easier
1st Way To Use A Carabiner: We use them to hang tool bags in our tool closet. It works great for smaller bags. We hung it from the wire shelves and it worked great.
2nd Way To Use A Carabiner: Last year, I created a vertical garden and used carabiner to hook the chains together so I could hang the wire baskets together off my deck.
3rd Way To Use A Carabiner: We have some computer cables that we keep for emergencies. It's not a lot. These carabiner works great for individual cables to hang them up for easy access.
4th Way To Use A Carabiner: My husband uses it for holding keys on his bag when he travels. It works great and he doesn't lose his keys in your larger bag.
5th Way To Use A Carabiner: To keep the carabiners together, we hook them together and hang them instead of placing them in a drawer loose.
6th Way To Use A Carabiner: With the smaller carabiner, we use them as a zipper extender on bags. It helps zipper up bags easy.
7th Way To Use A Carabiner: This one, my husband knew a coworker who did this. And, to this day, he still uses it on his bag. It's a great quick replacement for the plastic buckle that sometimes breaks when you travel.
8th Way To Use A Carabiner: The smaller carabiner can be used to hold index cards for various tasks. My kids use them for their foreign language vocabulary. I like to use it for note taking for the car.
9th Way To Use A Carabiner: This one is the best! These rubber bands get lost so easily. They can now be stored in the car and won't get lost.
I hope this gives you some ideas on ways to use carabiners. They are very cool tools and can be used to help you get organized. What do you use your carabiners for? I would love to hear from you. Please leave a comment below.

I also use my roadeavour carabine as a support for some of decor. It helps to bring that mountaineer vibe in the house.

I've used a 3" carabiner as a keychain for years. Attaches to my purse when not in use. But I also have a giant one with a rubber grip (which never seems to be handy when the occasion arises) that was designed to help carry several plastic or cloth bags at one time without the straps digging into your hand.

They are great strong tools! Thanks for sharing how you use them, Hazel.

Well, I learned something new today as I had never heard that term. Great ideas and these could mean you avoid going out and buying a new hook or other gadgets not needed. Now I know what I could use those for.

Love this post Sabrina! We use these a lot too! Keys, bags, and ponytail holders for sure. I love the idea of hanging cords with them. Now you've got me looking around wondering where else I could use them. 🙂
Sabrina
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the post! It's crazy the things we use them for. I didn't realize until I went around my house and found them. =)

Such simple ways to make effective uses of an item we all have around our homes!
Thanks for sharing!

I don't think I've ever had any of these, but now I want some! I'll definitely keep my eyes open at my next trade show or conference. 🙂
