Homemade Sex Toys - How to Find Them

Homemade Sex Toys – How to Find Them

It’s understandable why many people would have an interest in making their own homemade sex toy. There is a great deal of uncertainty and trepidation involved in buying a sex toy from a store in person or even from an online Internet store. After all, whenever we think of sex toys (and since we are taught that sex is a “dirty” thing by society) we always imagine the worst case scenario. What would happen if someone got a hold of our credit card? What if someone found out that we were ordering a sex toy?

No wonder then that many people look into a safer alternative: homemade sex toys! There are definite advantages to creating your own sex toy. You can customize the specifications. You can have complete confidence that no one but you has ever touched this material. You can experience greater pleasure. Of course, if you have the time, money and expertise, you could create your own homemade sex toy using a variety of industrial materials.

That’s the problem though; most people have neither time nor money to invest in a serious sex toy. Instead, they opt to create an amateur-quality device that can simulate the feeling of a mouth or vagina. For instance, one formula for a DIY “flesh light” toy would be to put conditioner (or something else smooth and watery) into a plastic bag, and stuffed in between rags and four plastic bottles of hot water (or balloons). This is a crude tool that can simulate the feeling of a vagina. Doesn’t sound that great though!

While this is a somewhat challenging design to create (particularly in finding the support to create a strong cylinder base that you can move) there are also many common household objects that can be used for kinky purposes. Think about your back massager, or a bathtub faucet, and how this tool could stimulate sensitive genital regions.

Even something as innocent as a cellular phone, a Tickle Me Elmo Doll or a washing machine can be used for vibration. Electric tooth brushes and electric razors also have vibrating features. Here’s a basic non-sexual sex toy; a blanket. All a woman needs to do is lie naked on her back, and hold the blanket with her feet and with her hands. She can then rock her hips up and down and rub it between her legs.

There is also a variety of household items that can be transformed into couples’ sex toys. You can incorporate food into your love play, ice, pillows (for different positions) and scarves or ties for restraints. The key is that you use your imagination. In actuality, all you need is a good hand to get things started. Sex toys, whether commercial or homemade are enhancements that add wetness and warmth to your self-love session.

However, don’t be afraid of ordering a real sex toy. After all, that is what they were designed for! Amateur products are not very reliable in terms of structure or in the realistic simulation of genitals. That’s where we can help at Peaches and Screams. Get the item shipped discreetly to your house. Sex toys are a basic component for teaching sexual education and more experimentation should be encouraged.
