Furniture – "Cardboard boxes are too good to simply throw away, or even put out to be recycled. They are usually strong enough to be used "as is" for occasional furniture, such as coffee tables, bedside tables"
Art - "I make Lampshades and chandeliers made from plastic Coke bottles, bicycle wheel reflectors and nylon cable ties."
Fashion – "Oh no! Out grown that cute dress/ top? Make it into a peg bag! 1) Sew up the bottom hem and arm holes. 2) Leave opening / button for access to the pegs. Put in a child's coat hanger and Bobs your uncle – a cute peg bag."
Candle Wax - Melt this down and dip pine cones in to make excellent fire lighters for the winter.
Gardening - Use toilet roll inners for planting seeds. You can plant the whole thing in the ground and later on the cardboard will breakdown naturally.
Fun - We made a swing in the garden by reusing 2 old tyres and have an old bath snuggled in the trees that we planted flowers in!
Water - Keep a small watering can in the family bathroom. Reuse your grey bath water for your window boxes.
Gardening - Cut bottoms off plastic bottles for easy slow release container watering.
Eggs Boxes - "I just use them as egg cups as I don't own any!"
