How to Make a Shampoo Dispenser

Shampoo dispensers come in a variety of styles, including wall-mounted dispensers and motion-activated dispensers. You can make your own simple shampoo pump dispenser at home using old soap bottles. The dispenser measures out a certain amount of shampoo at a time and helps you to stop using too much shampoo. Making your own dispenser also gives you an opportunity to reuse non-biodegradable bottles.
