11 Creative Uses for Rice: It's Not Just for Dinner

Absorbing

If you know about the trick of putting your smartphone in a bag of rice to save it from smartphone death when you’ve dropped it in water, you’ll probably know this works because dry rice absorbs moisture. This is good information to have because wardrobes can have trouble with moisture as well at times. Perhaps your home is just a little damp of itself, or you’ve put washed clothes back in the wardrobe when they weren’t completely dry yet. The moisture that’s left in the clothes will cause them to smell a little musty, which isn’t nice for anybody. And of course, you just want to avoid moisture in your wardrobe altogether because you don’t want mould, after all!
