Pleasure On A Budget: 19 Household Items That Can Spice Up Your Sex Life

You're surrounded by sex toys at home, and you don't even know it. We're all for building a diverse sex toy collection, but by using what's readily in front of you (instead of stuffed away in a bottom drawer), you're less likely to interrupt the mood by stepping away to grab equipment. The next time you want to add a new steamy accessory to your arsenal, you might not even need to go on a sex toy shopping spree. With a bit of creativity, you’ll find that there are plenty of sex toys already waiting for you at home.

Using household items as sex toys is a thrifty way to spice up your sex life. Yes, waterproof vibrators can create clitoral orgasms that feel like they last for days, but so can using the warm stream of water from the bathtub you already own. While many find sex-specific accessories and toys exciting, others would rather put a pair of panties in their lover's mouth than a ball gag — and that's hot, too. Plus, when the household items are location-specific, such as your washing machine, they can add some excitement by encouraging you to venture to new places (aka not the bedroom). From the age old classic shower head to innocent (but surprisingly versatile) skincare tools, read on for a handful of household items that double as sex toys.
