So, you want to use a household object as a dildo. Maybe you’re traveling and forgot to pack your little friend. Or maybe you’re feeling a little adventurous.
Inserting something that isn’t supposed to be inside you can be appealing. That’s why food play is so popular.
No matter the reason, know there are risks to using household objects as dildos.
These items may spread germs, break off inside you, or have sharp ends! Ouch.
Only dildos made from body-safe silicone can go inside of you without worry. Also, dildos from reputable stores and manufacturers. Anything else carries a risk.
So, if you use household objects, this post will serve as a safety guide.

Homemade Dildo Safety Tips
Always Use a Condom!
A household object can’t get you pregnant or cause STDs, but it can carry germs and other contaminants.
To ensure nothing bad gets inside you, wrap it before putting the object inside.
Measure the object’s length and girth, then buy a condom in the appropriate size. When you’re finished, dispose of the condom.
Use Items That Don’t Break!
If you’re putting a household object inside of you, things may get a little crazy. The last thing you want to do is have an object, such as food, break inside you.
Be sure the object that is inside of you isn’t fragile. If it’s a little delicate, be very careful. And again, use a condom.
This way, there’s less chance of any breakage falling inside you.
Don’t Lose it Inside You!
Many people have used objects that they lost inside themselves, leading to embarrassing trips to the emergency room.
If you’ve been online enough, you’ve seen X-rays of people with weird objects inside them.
To avoid that awkward moment and potentially a hefty hospital bill, use a long object with a handle you can quickly get out.
Even when practicing these safety tips, there’s still a risk. If you start feeling uncomfortable, feel the object breaking, or have second doubts, take it out.
I am not responsible for anything that happens. Putting a household object inside of you is exciting, but there’s always a risk!
How to Make a Suction Cup for DIY Dildos
The best way to make a suction cup is to invest in PVC suction cup dildos. Please make sure they are double-sided.
They should be able to attach to the object you want to use as a dildo. There are also other methods you can try.
I have a whole article about making a suction cup dildo, so read that if you wish.
Making homemade suction cups is easy, but there is a possibility it can fall out if you don’t secure it enough. Therefore, I’d recommend you buy a dildo with a suction cup attached to it.
Objects and Items To Make a Dildo
Here are some everyday items you can use as household dildos. This list is not comprehensive; pretty much any object similar to these may double as a dildo.
Drumstick
I’m talking about the drumstick you hit drums with, not a turkey drumstick. The latter seems gross, but there’s no shame in it if you like that.
Drumsticks are thin and long, making them great for a beginner. Their length also means they won’t get lost in you.
If you’re a band geek, you may have even heard some stories at band camp, if you get my drift.
Electric Toothbrush
Electric toothbrush technology has advanced greatly. I have one with many different vibration settings.
Plus, they’re built to get wet. It’s almost like they want us to use them as dildos.
Of course, I’d recommend a cheap one first, as I’m not sure if everyone wants to use their main brush as a dildo.
These brushes can be expensive. Insert it handle-first and turn it on.
Carrot
If you have a bunny suit, a carrot can be a humorous way to get yourself off. But with any veggie, ensure it’s firm and won’t break.
Carrots can have pointed ends, I’d recommend cutting that part off. Don’t use baby carrots… do I even need to explain why?
They can get lost inside of you.
Makeup Brush Handle
Depending on what makeup brushes you have, they can be phallic-shaped. If you choose this route, I’d recommend cleaning any makeup from it.
Makeup is meant to go on your face, not inside your vagina. You may want to buy a separate brush in this situation.
Shower Head
If you have a shower head that you can detach, this can be a great sex toy! Plus, it’s an effective way to clean yourself!
Also, there are now showerhead dildos you can use specifically designed to be insertable.
I recommend hunting down one of those to make shower time memorable.
A blast of water can be stimulating almost like you’re using a water-based vibrator. Just ensure the water isn’t too hot or cold, or you may regret it!
Corn on the Cob
I saw a lewd comic with a woman using corn on the cob as a dildo. The caption was, “Country girls make do.”
It was a funny meme, making me wonder if there’s any truth to it.
Regardless of where you’re from, corn on the cob can be an interesting textured dildo. But corn pieces can break off, so use a condom.
Penis Molding Kits and Other Dildo Ideas
Penis molding kits, such as Clone-a-Willy, can be great if you want to make your own dildo.
These kits let you create a dildo from your partner’s penis. This homemade dildo gives you a more personal toy that you can use when your partner is away.
You will need your partner present to make it, or he can order and send it to you. Just make sure that you follow the instructions carefully. This way, the dildo comes out looking great!
Here are some other ideas as well.
Shampoo Bottle
Shampoo bottles come in all shapes and sizes, making them suitable for play. When you insert the bottle, make sure the cap is sealed or the bottle is empty.
Shampoo is meant to go on your head, not in there! Insert it bottom-first to avoid shampoo getting inside of you.
Back Massager
A back massager vibrates and has a shape that you can fit inside of you. However, many massagers aren’t built for handling fluids.
This means it can short out, ruining the massager and possibly shocking you. You can unplug it to avoid shock, but that’s no fun.
Look for massagers that have a waterproof rating. Of course, you can find massager dildos quite easily. These may be the better option.
Smartphone App
Several smartphone apps are available that can make your phone vibrate. Therefore, you can try using your own phone as a dildo.
Phones can be wide, so keep that in mind.
Also, most phones nowadays are waterproof, but you’ll want to double-check. However, modern phones are mostly screens nowadays, and these screens shatter if you breathe on them.
Keep that in mind. If you have an old Nokia phone, that can survive anything!
Hairbrush Handle
Everyone has a hairbrush, so why not use one? When you use a hairbrush handle as a dildo, make sure it’s clean and that there aren’t any old hairs on it.
You don’t want anything gross inside of you. You may want to get a fresh hairbrush. They’re cheap.
Video Game Controller
Many people said the same thing when the Nintendo Wii first came out. “That looks like a dildo.” I can’t argue against that.
The Wii is pretty old, but finding a Wiimote is easy. Perhaps you already have one, or perhaps a family member who bought a Wii but never used it can lend it to you.
Besides the more phallic Wiimote, video game controllers have edges you can insert inside you. Plus, most controllers have a vibration that happens when the game gets intense.
Of course, you must play the game for that to happen, and multitasking this way can be tricky!
The Switch Joycons can also be good, with their HD rumble, small size, and straps that ensure they don’t get lost inside you.
But have you seen the price for those things? You can buy a premium dildo for the same price!
Toothbrush Handle
I’m talking about regular toothbrushes, not electric ones. If you’re in a pinch, your toothbrush handle can make a dildo.
Toothbrush handles come in various shapes and sizes, making them great as dildos. The next time your dentist gives you a free toothbrush, you know what to do.
Banana
I’m not very bananas about this option. With the skin on, it can be a little painful. Skin off, and it’s too soft and can easily break out of you.
Look, potassium is good for you, but not like that. Use a condom if you’re going to try the banana route.
Advanced Silicone Dildo DIY
I mentioned Clone-a-Willy before. This mold can turn any penis into a dildo. I’m talking about making a dildo that you could sell.
If you’re not much of an entrepreneur, it’s just lovely to have custom-made dildos. Thanks to 3D printing technology, it’s easier than ever to make a body-safe silicone dildo.
However, the process is still lengthy and requires plenty of room and experience.
You need 3D printing equipment, vacuum pumps, air compressors, and other equipment and ingredients.
It can also take a few tries to get it to work.
I recommend watching tutorial videos from experts who have done this. Considering the subject matter, you can find many YouTube videos covering custom dildos.
These videos are nice and friendly to those new to this world.
Perhaps in the future, I will write a detailed article about making your own dildo this way. It’s a big process, not one I can do justice to in this paragraph.
As you can see, there are many objects you can use as dildos. But I can’t stress this enough: only dildos made from body-safe silicone are meant to be inserted.
When you use any of these objects, you carry several risks. But you’re an adult. You should be fine if you understand these risks and take precautions.
People have inserted stranger things inside of them.
But again, I would recommend you get yourself a little traveler dildo and keep it in your suitcase. This way, you’ll always have a companion with you.
But, part of the fun of sex is the taboo. The idea of inserting things inside you that aren’t meant to be there is alluring. So practice that, but do it safely. Good luck!
