Some clever re-cycling projects......


When it's garbage day at your house-
do you recycle or re-use or re-purpose some items
rather than throwing them into the land fill?
Below are some pretty darn clever examples
that were emailed to me.
There are a few that I think are silly-
and there are a few that I will try to make.
Which ones are your favorites? 
Have you ever made any of these?

Have a great day!

  1. Maybe the bird feeders, but outside of that I just can't see me wanting any of this type of stuff. Pretty clever though.

    Have a terrific day. ☺

  2. Using that clothes hanger as a recipe holder is truly brilliant. Mrs. C. tapes her recipes to the cupboard and I can't wait to show her this.

  5. The piano one is cool, although the jeans made me chuckle.

  6. We recycle all metal containers, all plastics 1-7, paper, glass, plastic bags, all of it, but reusing/repurposing is in scant supply in my house.

    These are some clever ideas, i especially like anything reusing old clothing, which is one of the things we can't recycle here if it is not in condition to be donated,

    Haha, I love these ideas! Especially the clothes hanger as a cookbook holder. See, this is why I hate throwing stuff away. ;)

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
