Things you can re-use at home


There are so many things at home that you can reuse and make into new things. Here are a list of great things you can do to reuse and recycle:

1) Have any old CD’s that you don’t use anymore? You can make coasters out of them by gluing two together and putting felt underneath to make it non-slip.

2) A great way of using up a lipstick is by melting it with a small pot of lip balm, leaving you with a lip gloss.

3) You can save your corks, and when painting you can use them as stamps.

4) Cut off the bottom of an empty milk carton and plant a tree seedling inside it, The carton will protect your seedling from the weather and pests, and will also degrade as the tree grows.

5) Thinking of throwing your old jeans out? You can use them to cover patches in other jeans!

6) Take-away containers are a great method of storing bits and bobs as well as various foods.

7) Want to keep your picnic cooler cool? Fill an old milk carton up and freeze them.

8) Save old small toiletry containers so you can reuse them by refilling them from normal size bottle to create travel size containers.

9) You can make your own wrapping paper by using old newspapers, magazines, and comics.

10) Make your birthday and Christmas cards from old cards, photos, and stamps etc..
