It is Waste Not Want Not Wednesday#2
We are using what is in our hands or doing without today.
I must have learned this phrase growing up because it is ingrained into my fibers. Actually, it drives my family batty that I always have a pile of stuff I'm saving to use for something; the kids and Hubby are baffled????
What? you are gonna do what with that?? lol
Kleenex box..empty and ready for the trash...
They come in such cute, stylish and sometimes seasonal decor.
It is your money on that cardstock quality box.
You already spent that money and if it is not crushed by a basketball-dunking-teenage son who wants to make 3 points on it, then you can FREEcycle a bit of it.
Kleenex brand spent serious $$ conceptualizing those boxes.
I'll have to show ya'll something I've done with the oval 1s that are kinda new.
Are ya just gonna throw it out? Not me..
I was able to get a few scallop circles and some rectangular pieces from this box before disposing of it. I've gotten some awesome pieces from catolog covers in parchment paper; James Avery is a local jewelry store that my boys and Hubby get me charms from for my bracelet. I love cutting that front and back cover up. It comes in a different color about 4 times a year. :) I use them for tags for gifts, 3-D altered art pieces. Sometimes I double stick tape them together so both sides are pretty & sometimes the backside is what I write on.
What ya got??
