Whenever I’m in the kitchen, from cooking dinner to cleaning up after, having music on in the background is always preferred. Since my phone never leaves my side, it’s likely my go-to source for tunes. Unfortunately, it can get difficult to hear my favorite songs over the sound of the dishwasher, running water and sautéing vegetables. This article from The Kitchn shows you how to turn simple items found right now in your kitchen into makeshift speakers. While you won’t get quite the same quality as store-bought speakers, you can at least make the music loud enough to help cover up any off-tune singing. This takes personal jam sessions – complete with a spatula microphone, to a whole new level.
If you want to listen to tunes in the kitchen, you can opt to shell out money for an iPhone speaker set, or you can go the DIY route. Yes, that’s right — your kitchen already holds a bunch of ways you can amplify the sound from your iPhone; options that don’t require batteries or an electrical outlet. Or, for that matter, spending any money at all.
While these options are clearly not actual speakers, they can boost the quality of the sound, making what you’re listening to sound fuller. Keep these hacks in mind when you’re traveling, hanging out at the park or in the backyard, or cooking in a vacation rental kitchen — no need to pack actual speakers!
For the first four options, all you have to do is place the iPhone directly into it. These also help keep your phone clean and out of the way from any inadvertent kitchen food splatters.
The last option requires a pair of scissors and a little arts-and-crafts action.
