How to make a homemade dildo? Ideas for a homemade dildo

Before we dive in, let me clarify what you can expect from this article. Chances are, you arrived here after Googling phrases like "homemade dildo," "DIY dildo," or "how to make a dildo." If your aim is to master the art of crafting silicone dildos that rival store-bought ones, you might be in the wrong place.

The downside of this approach is that it often incurs significantly higher costs, both in terms of money and time, compared to simply purchasing a dildo from a store. Even if you're considering a Clone-A-Willy kit, which we'll touch on later, it still doesn't quite measure up to the quality of an average store-bought dildo.

Additionally, you won't find an exhaustive (and often impractical) list here of household items that can be used as a "dildo," along with statements like "the handle of a toothbrush fits perfectly in your vagina." Instead, I'll guide you through the fundamentals of creating homemade dildos, offering a foundation for experimenting with a multitude of combinations.

But before we proceed, let's cover some safety precautions that I strongly recommend following.

Homemade Dildos – Safety Tips

Always use a condom with homemade dildos

Always use a condom with homemade dildos. While some sources may suggest cleaning your makeshift dildo with soap and water, a 10% bleach solution, or even boiling it if the material allows, it's highly recommended to use a condom 101% of the time. This provides an extra layer of protection and helps maintain a hygienic experience.

Make sure your homemade dildo has no sharp edges or ridges

Not only can sharp edges be inherently dangerous, but they also pose a risk of tearing the condom, thereby increasing the potential for infection. Prioritize a smooth and safe design for a secure and enjoyable experience.

Choose only objects that do not break easily

While this advice is particularly crucial when using household items as dildos without a condom, it remains important even when using a condom. The last thing you want is for an item to break or become compromised inside the vagina, emphasizing the need for selecting sturdy and reliable materials.

Don't use homemade dildos for anal sex

While some individuals attempt to enhance the safety of homemade dildos for anal play, the effectiveness of these methods is often questionable. It is strongly advised to refrain from using homemade dildos for anal play due to the potential risks involved, as anal anatomy requires specific considerations for safety that may not be adequately met by improvised or homemade items. Opt for purpose-designed and tested anal toys to ensure a safer experience.

Always use lubricant

Always use lubricant with your homemade dildos, as you would with any sex toys. Note: Avoid using oil-based lubricants, as they can break down latex condoms. Opt for water-based lubricants for a safer experience. In case you don't have commercial lubricant on hand, pure aloe vera gel can be an alternative. You can also make a makeshift lubricant using water and cornstarch, though it may not be as effective as commercially available options. Prioritize lubrication for a smoother and more comfortable experience.

How to make a homemade dildo with household objects

Creating a homemade dildo with household objects can be done using various items, but they might not be inherently comfortable. Here are some considerations:

• Harsh Texture:

Many household items may have a texture that is too harsh for comfortable use.

• Size Issues:

The size, both in terms of circumference and length, might not be suitable for your preferences.

• Lack of Roundness:

Items may not be round enough to provide the desired sensations.

• Uneven Surface:

Uneven surfaces can be uncomfortable during use.

Given these concerns, I advise against using items like toothbrushes directly. Instead, I suggest wrapping the item in a washcloth, socks, toilet paper, etc. to make the toy softer and increase its size if necessary.

The usual list of items for a homemade dildo would include:

• Base. Something to wrap the base with (list of possible items below)
• Something to wrap the base with (see list of possible materials below)
• Cotton balls, makeup sponges, or just a regular sponge. They are usually worn on the toe for extra softness and comfort, but it's up to you if you need them
• Scotch tape. Often used to secure cotton balls or wrapping material
• Some rubber bands. They can be used to hold the wrapping material and condom at the base of the toy.
• A condom.

The average manufacturing process for a homemade dildo goes something like this:

• Take the base you have and wrap it in something soft
• Add cotton balls or sponges for added comfort
• Secure everything with elastic bands or adhesive tape
• Put on the condom and secure it to the base with rubber bands if necessary
• Enjoy your homemade dildo

Once you know these basics, you can experiment with hundreds of different homemade dildo combinations.

Possible elements to use as a base:

• Candle
• screwdriver handle
• Cookware
• A spoon
• hammer handle
• Lotion/shampoo/perfume bottle
• Flashlight
• Bubbler
• Baseball bat
• Marker
• Lint roller
• Toothbrush/toothbrush case
• tennis racket handle
• drum sticks
• Makeup brush
• Lemon juicer handle
• hair brush handle
• saucepan handle
• TV remote control

Possible elements to use as wrapping:

• Wipe
• Socks
• Toilet paper
• sponges
• Underwear
• Paper towel
• bubble wrap

As you can see, there's a lot of room for experimentation, so there's not much point in writing a specific method here. It all depends on what is within your reach.

Using fruits and vegetables to masturbate

You may already know that I am not a big fan of using food for masturbation, but if you are, you can try the following fruits and vegetables:

• Cucumber
• Carrot
• Pumpkin/zucchini
• Cob (can be boiled to soften)
• Eggplant
• Banana (unpeeled only). Although many people use bananas to masturbate and it's fine, I'm not a fan and I don't recommend using bananas.

Remember:

• Always wash fruit and vegetables
• Always use a condom
• Always make sure it is hard enough (not too ripe).
• Never use vegetables or fruits used for cooking (from an ethical point of view)

Products you should never use as a homemade dildo:

• Ice creams
• Lollipops
• corn dogs
• Hot peppers (seriously)
• Pickles
• anything soft

What is a Clone-a-Willy?

A Clone-a-Willy is an adventurous and approximately $50 DIY kit offering a unique experience. With a success rate that's not guaranteed, it allows you to create a 100% silicone replica of your or your partner's penis. The kit even includes a vibrating bullet to transform the replica into a vibrator.

The catch is that you need an actual penis to use this kit. While you might consider alternatives like a cucumber, it doesn't quite make sense when you can purchase a pre-made dildo for a more budget-friendly option.

In essence, the Clone-a-Willy is an intriguing product for playful moments with a partner. However, if you're simply seeking a cost-effective masturbatory tool, there are likely more economical options available.

Is it worth all the time and effort?

 

Whether making your own dildo is worth the time and effort depends on your specific situation. If you live with others and are concerned about someone discovering your sex toy purchase, the privacy aspect might be a consideration. However, in terms of cost-effectiveness and convenience, there are numerous affordable dildos on the market that offer better options.

Many inexpensive dildos, some priced under $10, are readily available. It's crucial to note that most low-cost dildos are made of porous materials, requiring the use of a condom for hygienic purposes. If you're willing to spend a bit more, silicone dildos, starting from around $20, provide a safer and more durable option.

Remember to prioritize both your budget and the materials used in the dildo to ensure a safe and satisfying experience.
