Brilio.net - Glass cups are often used to serve drinks. Apart from its beautiful appearance, glass can also withstand high temperature liquids. Not only that, this kitchen furniture also tends to be very easy to clean.
However, behind these advantages, glass glasses also have a number of disadvantages. One of them is glass which is easily brittle and broken. If dropped, the glass can immediately break and cannot be used again.

So to be safer, you can copy the trick for throwing away broken glass that was shared by a mother named Fitri Rahmawati. Through Fitri Rahmawati's Facebook account, she admitted that she only relied on kitchen waste to safely dispose of broken glass.
