Super simple cheap water saver in 10 seconds

Did you know that only by closing the tap when brushing your teeth you can save up to 10 liters of water?

If you make a rough estimation, when you wash or shave your face you, the number of wasted liters in a month might surprise you.

If we think about of how much water we waste on one month, we could be a bit more aware of the amount of energy and money involved in the process to have water each time it reaches our homes.

I would like to show you a little trick:
A perfect solution for lazy or forgetful people to take a little care of our ecosystem.

Step 1 Materials

Materials needed:

1 Rubber band
1 Single lever tap
1 Hand :D

Hello, and welcome to the Instructables community! It's great that you've decided to tell the world about something you've made by publishing an Instructable. We just wanted to let you know that your project still needs a little more work if you want it to be well received on Instructables. Projects that don't include certain basic elements tend not to get the attention that they deserve, and so we'd love for you to check out the list below of what makes a successful Instructable. Successful projects on Instructables include: - clearly written details of a finished project with instruction - as many steps as are necessary to explain your project - clear images that you took of your project for most, if not all of your steps - an intro image - proper spelling and grammar - appropriate cautions or safety considerations I'll give you another opportunity to make any final changes to your project before we publish it. Once you're all set to go, please republish your project and send me a quick comment letting me know that you've made some changes. I'll give it a quick final check to make sure you're on the right path, and then remove this note. Thanks for your submission and we hope to see your project published soon!

Great way to remind yourself of water usage. Also a great way to teach kids about conserving in a very easy way.
