– Useful as a bookmark – If you don’t have a bookmark, you can always turn to a rubber band because it fulfills this role very well. This makes it easier to find the page you stopped on but above all to avoid folding the end of a page back on itself. A trend that only harms books.
– Cleaning a paintbrush – It’s not always clear what to do with excess paint left on your paintbrushes, but a rubber band can help.

This reduces paint spills and keeps the edges of the can cleaner.
