Project Ideas
Business
Desk Cable-Management Kits
Package the grommets with adhesive bases, small mounting plates, and installation instructions as a DIY desk cable-management kit targeted at remote workers and gamers. Offer color options, bundle with branded desk mats, and sell direct-to-consumer through an online store.
Electronics Assembly Service
Provide small-run electronics assembly or prototyping services that include installing rubber grommets for wire strain relief and abrasion protection. Market to makers, startups, and local businesses that need neat, production-ready cabling but don't want to deal with sourcing and installation themselves.
Craft Supply Packs for Makers
Create and sell curated craft packs that include multiple grommets plus cords, charms, and instructions for jewelry, keychains, and home organizers. Position them for craft fairs, Etsy, and subscription boxes aimed at hobbyists and DIY gift-makers.
Furniture Repair & Customization
Offer a small local service replacing worn grommets and adding rubber bumpers to furniture, cabinets, and appliances. Upsell custom finishes (painted or coated grommets), quick installation visits, or bundled restoration packages for antique or retail fixtures.
OEM Supply for Small Manufacturers
Source and package grommets as a reliable small-batch supplier to local manufacturers of lighting, signage, or consumer goods that require durable cable pass-throughs. Provide kitting (pre-installed in housings) and just-in-time delivery to reduce their inventory burden.
Creative
Rubber-bead Jewelry
Use the grommet as a modern industrial bead or pendant — thread leather cord, paracord, or metal wire through the 1/2" ID to make necklaces, bracelets, or key fobs. Paint or emboss the outer surface, stack multiple grommets for a chunky look, or inset small resin or metal disks to personalize each piece.
Desk Cable Anchor
Glue the grommet to the edge or underside of a desk to create a cushioned cable pass-through and anchor point. It prevents abrasion on charging cords and keeps a single cable from slipping off the desk. Combine with a small adhesive pad for a tidy, low-profile cable management solution.
Mini Bumper Feet
Stick the grommet (cut in half or used whole) to the bottom corners of small boxes, picture frames, or electronic enclosures to serve as vibration-damping feet. The rubber thickness gives a soft lift and prevents scratching on surfaces.
Handmade Hanging Hook
Inset the grommet into a small wooden plaque or piece of leather to make a reinforced hole for hanging keys, lightweight tools, or ornaments. The rubber protects the hanging cord and adds a finished, intentional look to rustic craft projects.
Custom Switch/Knob Cover
Use the grommet as a protective collar around small toggle switches or potentiometer shafts on handmade audio gear or DIY lamps. It prevents dust ingress, cushions the mounting hole, and gives a neat industrial aesthetic.
