Useful Trash.

Being a pack rat your whole life can pay off sometimes. As a kid, I would always make toys of my own and my cats' with my main staples- tape, string, and paper. I still do, with all the random "trash" lying around. I wonder why people throw away so many objects with so much potential.

All sorts of boxes, empty containers, ziplock bags, rock candy sticks, clothes tag strings, scrap paper, birthday cards. (not that I'd want to ruin those..)

And don't get me started on used objects with an obvious use already!


That there is my plant protector farmer girl.
I store my clothes and notebooks in cardboard boxes.
Smaller things in tissue boxes.

Even if it disappears on Thursdays, the stuff you throw away goes somewhere. Recycling requires energy.
But with a little bit of creativity, you can create so many useful fun things!

re-use, buy used, create new.
It'll make you happy!
