Making your own sex toys, is it crazy or a genius cost saving move? It might be a little bit of both. People try making sex toys all the time; although, they don’t always do it wisely. This guide will help with that
You can safely make some sex toys or borrow a few household items to use as a dildo. You can get creative when making your own dildo or bondage gear, and even apply your artistic skills to the process. This is especially true if you already have knowledge of an art or craft – glass or leatherwork, for example – that can be applied to sex toys.
But where do you start?
Side note: If you are currently struggling to orgasm during sex or masturbation, then you may want to learn about the Easy Orgasm Solution. It will teach you how to have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation. It works even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or when masturbating.

8 Homemade Sex Toys
Below, you’ll find some examples of homemade sex toys that you can try yourself. They vary in form, function and difficulty, and not all of them might be up your alley. Still, you might be surprised as what you can make or find at home to help get yourself off!
1. Ice Dildo
The ice dildo is an easy DIY project to mark off on your homemade sex toys list. You can do it in one of two ways:
- Fill a condom with water, tie it shut and pop it into the freezer until it’s solid.
- Substitute water for juice in a popsicle mold.
The popsicle method provides you with a handle, so you’re not freezing your hand or melting water all over it. You can use the ice dildo without removing the condom, or you can carefully take it off from the frozen dildo once it’s ready.
When you’re playing with this DIY sex toy, you may want to lay down a towel so your bed doesn’t get wet. Use this dildo in the shower if you prefer; although, it will definitely melt faster!

2. Clone A Willy
Here’s a DIY sex toy that’s a little longer lasting. Clone A Willy is a company that actually provides the materials to make a mold of someone’s penis and turn it into your own vibrating dildo, candle or even chocolate snack! It’s silly and also a fun way to spend time with your man. The kit comes with everything you need to make the clone, including instructions. The process is a quick one, and there’s not a lot of room to dawdle or make mistakes.
People especially find themselves over-stirring the mold mix, which allows it to harden prematurely. The mold should be soft while your partner is hard, which means he’s got to be prepared, too! However, if you get this right, it can definitely be fun and leave you with a very functional homemade sex toy.

3. Tampons as Butt Plugs
If you’ve read our guide on how to use a butt plug during sex, then you know safety is a must when it comes to preparing for anal sex. Anything without a proper handle could become lost, which means it’s even harder to find or make the right homemade sex toy for anal masturbation. It’s totally natural if you want to explore butt play, but what if you’re not sure you’ll like it? Should you run out and buy a toy? Not so fast.
You probably have some tampons if you’re of menstruating age, or you can easily borrow one from a friend. Tampons with applicators are easy to insert with a little bit of lube (learn about lube) and you’ve got a DIY butt plug. You can keep it in while you masturbate with a dildo for an extra filling sensation. Because tampons are softer and smaller than most sex toys, this might be a good way to introduce yourself to anal insertion. If you like it, graduate to something bigger over time. If not, no big deal!
When you’re done, the string makes for easy removal.

4. Washing Machine
The clothes are on the spin cycle and you’d like a satisfying orgasm, but your vibrator’s batteries are dead. What’a a girl to do? Simply hop on or lean against your washing machine so you can feel the vibrations as it moves on your clitoris. Your clothes are still getting clean even if you’re being dirty, and it’ll be more intense than any vibrator!
Also, you can combine sex and the vibrations from your washing machine by having sex in the Washing Machine position.
5. Back Massager
Let’s be honest, many back massagers are nothing more than vibrators that can easily be used externally. In fact, that’s how the Hitachi and Wahl became two of the most popular wand vibrators around. So if you’ve got a massager tucked away somewhere from an old pulled muscle, why not break it out and try it on a more sensitive part of your body? You can thank us later!

6. Vibrating Cell Phones and Devices
Okay, so you don’t have a massager on hand and your washing machine is broken. Don’t worry! Most of us carry around vibrating devices on a daily basis. Yes, we’re talking about your cell phone. And sure, can use your phone for sending sexy text messages and sexy selfies, but it also has another potential dirty function…
The vibrations in your phone are much weaker than most actual vibrators, but it can do in a pinch. The big concern is not butt dialing someone, but keeping the vibrations going and keeping a barrier between you and the toy to both protect it from bacteria and prevent moisture damage. Using your phone as a clitoral vibrator through your panties solves most of these problems.
Vibrate Plus and Pleasure Droid are two apps for Android devices; but Apple bans similar apps from the iTunes store. Of course, using your phone for this DIY sex toy will drain the battery quickly.
Cosmetics have also hopped on the vibrating bandwagon, so your vibrating mascara or toothbrush can also be used as long as it has enough battery life.

7. Clay Dildo or Plug
Here’s a little homemade sex toy: a dildo or butt plug made out of clay. Not only does a clay dildo provide sexual satisfaction when having sex with yourself, but you get the satisfaction of doing it yourself and creating a one-of-a-kind homemade sex toy. Choose your favorite colors and the size and shape that you like best. You can even add glow-in-the-dark clay.
Baking a sex toy in a kiln, if you know someone who has space in theirs, is the safest and most effective method. For a butt plug, a pottery wheel comes in handy. But you’ll want to fire it twice, glazing before the second fire, to make it nonporous and safe to use. Otherwise, colors and chemicals could leach out of your homemade sex toy and into your body. Yuck! Avoid softer clay or those that are crumbly because they could break off or even leave a residue, leading to a nasty infection.
8. Commandeer Household Items for BDSM
These aren’t exactly homemade sex toys, but you can use a number of items that you probably have lying around your home to improve your sex life. For example:
- A spatula or wooden spoon makes a great spanking implement.
- A soft belt can become a single-tail whip (just make sure not to use the end with the buckle!). Learn about impact play.
- Paper clips and clamps can be placed on your nipples if you like that type of nipple play.
- A clean feather duster can tease and tickle your partner into a frenzy.
- A soft scarf, fuzzy wrap or similar item feels great when dragged across the skin.
- Old sports paddles can become spanking paddles if you are looking to punish your submissive.
Learn: How to spank your husband.
And if you’re interested, you can make a number of wood paddles yourself from wood. Cut, sand and paint wood to become a paddle in any shape you want. A length of rope and a few knots makes a flogger. You can even make a flogger out of shoe laces! In fact, rope is relatively cheap and can be used to make all sorts of bondage gear.

If you’ve got the tools for cutting, punching and sewing leather, you’ll open up a whole new world of homemade sex toys, too!
The Risks of Homemade Sex Toys
There are a number of considerations when it comes to homemade sex toys. When you go the DIY route, you run the risk of:
- Getting an infection such as a bacterial infection or yeast infection.
- Injuring yourself because of items that aren’t intended to be inserted.
- Getting an item without a proper flared base or handle lost in your rectum and having to go to the emergency room.
You should use caution and common sense when it comes to making or finding homemade sex toys. Take your time whenever you make a homemade sex toy, and you could have something safe and beautiful. Rush it or make a hasty decision because you’re dying to get off, and you could wind up in pain in the hospital.
Orgasm Every Time. Easily. Here’s How...
I want to tell you about my friend Karen.
Karen came to me one day. She was hysterical.
She told me that her marriage was falling apart because she and her husband didn’t have satisfying sex.
Every time they were intimate, Karen was faking her orgasms. It turns out she couldn’t orgasm during sex.
In fact...
She never had an orgasm in her entire life. Not one!
This left her feeling embarrassed and ashamed. And...
She completely hid this from her husband. Thankfully...
It turns out that there is a way for any woman to orgasm. Easily. And have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation.
I shared the process with Karen.
After she followed the simple process, she could barely come to terms with how...
Quickly and dramatically her sex life changed.
We met up a few months later and...
She would not stop talking about it,
“I thought I was one of those women who couldn’t orgasm. I used to think I was ‘broken’ and ‘unfixable.’ This saved my sex life, and that saved my marriage.”
Even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or when masturbating, this process will also work for you.
And best of all, you don’t need to do anything weird or uncomfortable to start having the best orgasms and sex of your life.
Not trying to be rude, just trying to inform.
A tampon as a butt plug IS NOT a good idea!! You even talk about needing a flared base or else things may get lost, and yet there is nothing less flared than a piece of string attached to cotton. I know you may think that because there is a string, this means easy retrieval, but the rectum has no end – it can still get sucked it and get lost, unlike a vagina, which is closed off by the cervix. Additionally, a tampon will be dry and absorb any lube (which is needed in copious amounts for any anal play) and it will over all be uncomfortable, especially for first timers.
The best homemade introductory anal toy? Your finger and some lube. If you want to know for sure what you can handle, start there. Maybe get some gloves if it makes you more comfortable. Or there are lots of petite butt plugs on the market that are as small as a pinky finger for the true newbies. But please, please, PLEASE do not put a tampon in your bum!
You kids these days are afraid of everything! I’m 70 years old and used tampons up my butt for anal masturbation for about 55 years and never once got one stuck. Just keep the end of the tampon with the string hanging out close to your anal opening and make sure to use lots of lubrication and it’ll work fine. All it takes is a little common sense (something kids today are sadly lacking) and you can safely use many things that are just normal home items. Hint – some of the best toys are probably sitting in your refrigerator right now.
Okay Boomer.
you fucking madlad
I found that using a stick of hot glue as a base then squeezing more hot glue onto it you can make an anal plug of whatever size and shape you want. You just need to have the time to do it. Have fun with it though 😉
Now wait, with hot glue gun sticks, wpuld they somehow stay connected inside you? It would be wiser to just have something attaching the sticks right?
Definitely will try but will glue some string to it first
I’ve heard that you can use electronic toothbrushes as vibrators, but I don’t want anyone to find out I’m using one, how do I block out the noise so others can’t hear it?
I don’t know madison, how about not masturbating next to other people? That seems like a sound place to start.
Go in the bathroom use the sink/vent, your bedroom with tv/music, washer/dryer in the laundry room.Or if your about the risks go outside.
Blankets. Tons of them.
What about electric toothbrushes as butt plugs? I heard that works well. My question is what would happen without a condom on it? Would it end badly?
What if youre insensitive and cellphone doesnt feel good down there? I feel nothing. Havent orgasmed in almost a decade. :/ so rarely touch myself any more
Hopefully you are female. I went through some of the same issues with my late wife. I was able to experiment until I got her figured out. It was the most satisfying experience for both . It is an easy fix with a man that knows what he’s doing.
You guys have probably seen the ‘diy harry potter wands’ with a chopstick or wooden dowel and covering it in hot glue. Make one of those, add a condom and BOOM, dildo of any shape, size, and many, MANY delightful textures
Or just have have sex with someone or use the bottom of a hairbrush or bathtub faucet
I still prefer a penis in my butt but a calf nursing nipple is a good fit.
I still prefer when someone else is rubbing my pussy. Masterbation is great but there’s nothing like a good fingering from… Anyone but me I wish I could have someone here to help me with the orgasm I’m currently working on
When I first realised you could take the brush end of the colegate battery operated toothbrush . It leaves you with a nice stainless steel rod with a ball bearing type end. Straitaway my head said mmm I bet my lady would like this on her clit. Boy did she ever . Best sex toy ever brought @ $16. The end vibrates very fast as well as a circulaer movement that was many year ago iv since had maybe 6 partner since . They have all sworn its great it quite easy to hide you can even make it look like it’s just a toothbrush. Try it its unbelevibly good
A Mentos bottle mounted on shovel handle feels heavenly when leaning back and forth on it in a stand up position, because of it’s ribbed surface. I insert a chunk of coconut oil up my ass and wait about 5 mins. for it to melt, then it’s bliss time. Feeling that ribbed surface popping in and out through my sphincter gives me multiple orgasms.
I just use a toothbrush for butt plug and my brush for my front or just 2 brushes. think about the toothbrush before bed. you can say I’m brushing my teeth.
So many good ideas here! Thanks everyone for sharing. It’s nice not to leave home or spend money online, and still get a new sex toy. I love rummaging the house looking around for what will work. There’s something kinky about DIY’ing yourself a new pleasure tool.
my personal favorite? i like to use sticks of butter. feels like gumby is fucking you at first but it is very fast to fit the form
Common rope can be an interesting sex toy if used with care. I’ve spent a few afternoons bare with my hands tied to the clothing pole in my wife’s closet as punishment for some infraction. Now I could easily get away if there’s a fire or other emergency since the pole could be removed. It’s by consent of course and a fantastic kinky turn on, especially for a guy in his 50s with orgasm problems. I rather like her in charge on the weekends and I’m very sure she enjoys the role play. I’ll say “Yes Dear…” to anything she asks once she works me into a complete state of horniness.
Used liquid latex and made a pocket pussy with other materials, and stored it in the basement and friends come over and I’d tell them about it, and they want to try it, so after they would ejaculate in it, I told them to put it bac snd I’ll clean it, well someone els was visiting and they wanted to try it out, and so I said ok, and told them that I was going to, iv got it all lubed and ready, lol. I told him that to just leave it when done I take care of it,we got drunk thar night and my wife told me she wanted to see what was so special about this fake pussy that tge guys say is better than real thing,so I show her and she wants me to show her and starts to unbuttoned me and I wasn’t thinking that I forgot to clean it out and, yup its full of,ahhh, lube.lol. I’m going to town she’s helping and then cum starts to leak out and all over me and my wife was like,hunny how many times you use this and don’t clean it, and im like ready to cum and when I realize I’ve got multiple loads from a friend snd brother I law, and it’s running down my balls buttcheeks buttcracck stomach and I don’t stop, because wtf, so I finished and told my exwife what had happened, and she thought it to be kinda hot that I just jacked off with two dudes multiple loads, and to be honest, I kinda liked it, so did the ex,she wanted me to use what cum woukd cum out and fuck her with it, it turned her on. So, eventually we bought a couple of really expensive ones and gave permission to anyone that want to go to our private room, and try out our pocket pusssy and the new full body doll,,let’s just say we had everyone that new we had a 3000$real life sex doll, and just had to try it out,.I don’t know why nobody figured out that it didn’t come prelubed. Lol.
