Almost everything we buy and use can be reused for other purposes. The process of reusing an item saves time and energy that would otherwise be exerted in a recycling plant. We've gather some ways you can bring a second life to your simple everyday home items. Check out the following:
- Bring old blankets and towels to your local animal shelter. They can be sued to give animals a soft and warm place to lay.
- Reuse brown paper bags as book covers.
- Use old papers as scrap paper.
- Reuse heat by leaving your oven door open after use. This allows the warm air to heat your house.
- Reuse coffee by putting it in the fridge to make iced coffee.
- Donate pens and leftover art supplies to schools.
- Donate old clothing to local charities.
- Reuse old pillow cases for rags.
- Reuse newspapers an magazines as wrapping paper.
- Donate old books to libraries or local schools.
- Reuse an old toothbrush by using it to clean hard to reach places in your bathroom.
- Give stale bread to birds.
- Reuse a received gift bag by using it for a gift you're giving.
