I keep a small tissue box on my dryer for used dryer sheets that I use to clean out the lint trap. Ice cube trays are perfect for mixing different colors of paint for your kids to use.
Glass jars are also excellent for display purposes. Instead of having all our seashells just collecting dust on the windowsill, I've put them in a glass jar. Instead of hiding my tiny balls of leftover yarn in a box somewhere, I've arranged them in a gradient in the tallest glass jar ever. My aunt put all her spare buttons in a glass jar which not only looks cute but is also great for finding the right colour when you need it. Oh and speaking of those buttons, they're great as eyes for crochet creatures! :)
Another binder clip use - clip all your bills together, then hang the open wire part on a push pin on your bulletin board. Unclip the bills as you pay them (I transfer mine to a spike holder [long stainless nail through the center of an old round wooden coaster]) and you know at a glance what you need to pay. Also, those _cardboard_ (not foam) egg cartons can be cut up into individual cups, and after cutting an X in the bottom of each one, you can start seeds in them! Use an old plastic plate as a platform as they're sprouting (to catch the excess as you water them), and when they're about an inch tall, you can plant them, cup and all, in the ground (the cardboard will decompose). Another use for glass jars: There are things (like apple sauce or wet cat food) that are cheaper in cans, but it's not good to store them in the can once it's been opened. Transfer the remainder immediately to a spare glass jar, then wash and reuse/recycle the can. Speaking of cans...flat tuna cans can help you measure how much watering you are doing! Just scatter them around your yard or garden, turn on the sprinkler, and watch as the cans fill up. A full tuna can indicates you have watered one inch, which is an ample drink for dry ground (one inch of water will sink into the earth about a foot). Sorry for going all Heloise on you, but since you gave me some good ideas, I thought I'd return the favor.
This is one of the better videos I've seen on this topic. I won't mention specific sites/pages, but I think most of us have rolled our eyes at some point watching "hacks" that end up costing more, being worse for the environment, or just plain don't work. So thank you for being a breath of fresh air with some really cute and functional ideas! Great ideas, and I like your friendly and down to earth presentation of them. 😊👍
I love your ideas and your enthusiasm. And contact paper! I don't know what I would do without it! For what it's worth, here are some more ideas for repurposing things. Cutlery trays are useful in desks for stationery supplies. Frames are good for command stations in tight places. Those IKEA plastic bag holders that come folded are good for storing gift wrap without taking up much space. Their folded garbage containers (with the holes) are good for holding vacuum cleaner parts. I also use a magazine rack to store the bags for our trash compactor. Both these holders have lasted for years. Cut the tops of storage bag boxes, glue together, and wrap with contact paper. It looks nicer and it's easier to get the bags. I always save the mesh pouches our dental hygienist gives us after a cleaning. They make great pencil cases, cosmetic pouches, travel organizers, and receipt holders. Finally, we don't have garbage collection where we live, so I take my garbage to the dump (saves me about $1,000 per year). The bonus is what I find there. I found two very dated wooden cabinets and several plastic drawer units that I use in my garage to store things - grill accessories, automotive supplies, bike accessories, etc. I even hauled the bottom of a baby crib that was like a peg board and hung the bike helmets over the bikes! I saved $$$!
I like your ideas! I'd like to add to your cereal box one. The liners inside are thick and much nicer wax paper than comes on the rolls. I cut them open and use when I am rolling out cookies or pies, making meatballs etc. I also use them in my craft room whenever I am gluing and painting. I also cut the top half of the bag off and they easily stay open to divide up hamburger or add garden veggies for freezing.
I love your ideas and it's great to see people re-using and re-purposing instead of filling up recycling bins. You're setting a great example for your kids. I re-use almost all the plastic that produce comes in at the market as organizers.
I had a tissue box whose design and colors were perfect for my kitchen so I took it apart and flattened it out and made a photo of it for making 12 digital copies of it and cut and pasted them onto decorative cutting boards, plates, jars, tumblers etc... way easy and cool!
When I wanted a holiday design tissue box, I simply covered it with holiday wrapping paper. No need to buy one. Most of the time I use cloth hankies so box of paper tissues lasts a super long while. ( except if I have a real bad cold, then I go through Puffs fast)
My favorite repurpose item not mentioned here is the plastic claw type hair holders. I use them to hold my kitchen towel in the oven door handle. My favorite use is to hold back curtains, like cloth tie-backs, but much less $$.
I have recently used the small ones to help hold a blouse on a hanger. I just clipped one on each shoulder of the blouse catching the hanger as well. Clipping a couple directly onto the outer edges of the top of a hanger is also a good way of keeping a tank top from sliding off of a hanger.
What great ideas!! Evidently I'm not the only one who hesitates to throw away a cute tissue box that matches perfectly. I'm going to use that idea for sure!!
For those who use the pod type soaps that come in large plastic bottles - they make great storage containers for small nonfood items (like craft supplies or small toys) I have also used one to protect my yarn while crocheting. I poked a hole in the lid big enough to thread my yarn through - then just drop the yarn into the container and thread yarn up through lid. I then don't have to worry about dropping my yarn or my pets playing with it. It stays clean and safe as I'm using it.
Love this! Thank you for all the cool ideas 🥰 another one I love is covering cardboard boxes to use as organisers in the linen closet to stop all the pillow cases and washcloths falling all over the place. I use medium size boxes, so diaper boxes from Walmart and some delivery boxes from Amazon. I get my contact paper from the dollar tree too! I recognise the print 😉✨ I use old glass jars in the pantry too! Love it
Love your ideas. I also use the clips for keeping the kitchen towel from falling off of the bar in the front of the stove where I hang it. I just hang the towel, and then I clip the front of the towel to the back. No more towels on the floor.
Hello from Australia! I just found your channel and I really like the idea of using file tray in your food cupboards...this is an idea I will keep in mind especially the next time I move as I will have to downsize.
Well done! We'd all be better off if we re-purposed instead of bought more. When my son was an infant, I had my husband cut paper towel roles in 1/2 and put them in an empty wipe canister and made my own baby wipes. Binder clips are the bomb!
Repurposing boxes and covering them with contact paper! Yes! I've been doing this, even before seeing this video. My favorite boxes are from cases of water that hold six one-gallon jugs. There's a sturdy divider wall through the middle. If you cut the box to half-height and reclose the upper half-box, you then have two divided trays.
"Helps you tap into your creativity." I like that. Very encouraging. I've watched, and enjoyed lots of repurpose videos, and have gotten some good ideas. A lot of the ideas you shared are new to me and I'm looking forward to giving them a try. I love repurposing, and your video will allow me to do even more repurposing. The magazine holder ideas... seem so obvious, yet I didn't even think of them. Using large tissue boxes for drawer storage... cool idea. The cereal box ideas... oh yea. I'm gonna have fun with that one. And the list goes on. 😀 Thanks for the great ideas.
Great video! I love the idea of repurposing what we have instead of buying new stuff. I never thought of using a magazine holder for plastic lids and bottles, and I definitely have both that problem and a couple of those hanging around not being used, so I'm going to give that a try. Thanks. :)
I love your ideas. I'm very much like you-- I repurpose as much as I can. Another GREAT idea for cereal boxes is to use them to make picture frames. You can either cover them with nice wrapping paper, contact paper OR, if you want to be ambitious, get some batting (used for making quilts) and some pretty fabric and cover it in puffy fabric. These are pretty enough to give as gifts. Using a hot glue gun, it's really easy. Love your idea of using an old eyeglass case to store little things when you travel, too.
Omg I love so much the movie night snack tray for the kids!!! I think even the big kids would dig this! I just love repurposing things and I have enjoyed your ideas for things i'd not thought of!
Wow, I love these ideas! You solved the sock drawer problem, the craft supply problem, and so many others. I will be busy making a bunch of these, thank you!
I love your ideas! I am a new subscriber. I love to repurpose things and have gotten some great ideas here! I like the pace and clearness of your speaking voice. Keep up the good work!
Love the binder clips for sweaters idea. I avoid open cardigans for that reason. Though I run into so many that I really like. Coupling them with colored binder clips sounds like a great idea.
I use a small hair clip to hold my open fleece vest closed. I use the tiny clips that come on orchid plants to clip my too long bangs out of my face. I've also used an earring to close a crochet vest.
I really love the idea of reusable tissue boxes, I know that it sounds so "xyz", until you find one that is so artistic or the colors and patterns or phrase is so uplifting that u don't want to part with it 😊 I don't know if anyone else has used mod podge before, they make a dishwasher safe gloss version orange pink and blue label. It's a water-based sealer, glue and finish. I've used it for all kinds of things, not necessarily to to put on the tissue box to make it more durable and to maintain the quality and appearance of the cardboard, but I think that would be a great idea. Your video inspired this trip to the store to give it a go, so thank you for sharing your beautiful and inspiring ideas they really make a difference!!
@@frugalcreativeliving lol full disclosure I actually ended up watching another one of your videos while "getting ready to go to the store " the one that you make natural house and body spray, and I actually had those ingredients which was serendipitous so I made that instead and it turned out fabulous thank you for the video I'm a visual learner so the step by step details and explanation for each thing was so helpful! Appreciate it
* the soap fragranced water that's left when I wash my hair ( a bucket full) AND final rinse from washing dishes-- I re- use to flush the toilet. * Cereal boxes are used to line the kitchen, bathroom draws. * supermarkets throw tons of boxes- I take some FREE to organise kitchen and sheets of thin cardboard to protect floor n line cupboards, n tables while I am crafting/ Painting. * toilet Roll cylinder that's left- I use for personal stuff to remove pubic hair ( so easy). * empty glass jars recycled to store oil/ liquids/ left over foods.
Just subscribed, you're so creative and loved your presentation. Some of your ideas I have been doing for awhile. I'm frugal and a "save mother earth" older person so am always looking for new ideas.
I've always been the creative type but now even with prices on everything rising. Your useful tips is going to save me a ton of money. Great video. Subscribed!
All great ideas here =D We just moved from a different state and haven't brought all of our belongings yet. I've been saving all of my odd boxes and jars and such to repurpose into storage and other uses. These are great motivation to get me started! Thank you!
This surprised me. I already do some of this but the shower baggie is something I never thought of. My former neighbor used peanut butter jars to store nails, screws and other hardware so I began finding uses for them myself. I also repurpose prescription pill bottles for storing smaller items. A sturdy shoe box makes for excellent storage too.
I've been reusing a tissue box for many years.👍🏻 I do exactly what you demonstrated for the exact reason you stated. And I really do need to replace the plastic sheet that covers the opening ..it's rather shabby at this point.🥴
These are some great ideas, especially the magazine racks. Definitely going to try that out. I use binder clips as chip/freezer bag clips, but I also have a little container that I use to store the rubber bands that come wrapped around produce. They’re good for closing bags and especially good at rewrapping and securing oddly shaped items.
In 1977 I covered a collection of boxes and knocked curtains with contact paper. They were oversize building blocks for my first nephew. In 2021, my first grand nephew played with them. Greatest thing ever.
I hust found you and I am so happy I did. I looooove repurposing things and live more sustainable. This is a great video. Lots of love from South Africa. ⚘
The sanitizer wipes container. I use it to hold the toilet bowl brush. I also use them, cut down, to start vegetable plants. Thank you for such an informative video.
brilliant idea...to use the paperclip on your desk for holding any cable...was NEW to me..otherwise..reuse stuff..what I learned from my mom...as Mother Earth otherwise has to DIGEST it..which she often CAN'T.. ;)
I just found your channel. The caption on the video caught my attention. I appreciate that you get right down to the point and give practical information. I did see several items I could recycle in ways I had not previously thought of.
Thank you for all the wonderful and creative ideas! I have always been fascinated by any kind of re-purposing. I have also figured out that a lot of talented and creative people had to be involved in the original item we use to re-invent. We are just taking (in a good way) advantage of all that engineering process. 👍☺️👏
So glad to see someone repurposing items like I do. There is so much waste. We can all do this to help the planet and save money.
Absolutely!
I keep a small tissue box on my dryer for used dryer sheets that I use to clean out the lint trap. Ice cube trays are perfect for mixing different colors of paint for your kids to use.

Thank you! That never crossed my mind 😉
Good ideas. Can also use full size tissues, usually cheaper, fold in half place in cube boxes
I've been doing that for years!
I've been refilling the same Kleenex box for about ten years. It's so pretty!
That's hilarious! Thanks for sharing! 😄
These are such great ideas! I will have to try the tissue box for my socks and underwear drawer.

I really love the idea of reusable tissue boxes, I know that it sounds so "xyz", until you find one that is so artistic or the colors and patterns or phrase is so uplifting that u don't want to part with it 😊 I don't know if anyone else has used mod podge before, they make a dishwasher safe gloss version orange pink and blue label.

Great ideas! I use glass jars for leftovers. They take up less room than plastic containers.
Thats true!
And they don't absorb the smell of the foods, or stain!
The plastic ice cube trays are great for separating the parts that come with furniture you put together........

These are some great ideas, especially the magazine racks. Definitely going to try that out. I use binder clips as chip/freezer bag clips, but I also have a little container that I use to store the rubber bands that come wrapped around produce. They’re good for closing bags and especially good at rewrapping and securing oddly shaped items.
Thank you for the ideas given on here. I do the same thing with my apartment and things I repurpose.
I save old stuff but can never thing of how to purpose it lol, thank you!!
In 1977 I covered a collection of boxes and knocked curtains with contact paper. They were oversize building blocks for my first nephew. In 2021, my first grand nephew played with them. Greatest thing ever.
Wow! That's amazing! I love contact paper lol!
These were good ideas. Most ideas I haven't heard before.
Great ideas. Love your energy! Have a beautiful day!
Thank you! You too!
Love the eyeglass case ideas!
I’ve put new tissue in a favorite tissue box. Love your ideas.
Best ideas I've seen in a long time. Thanks for sharing.
Such neat ideas! I’m immediately using my old ice cube trays so THANK YOU 💙
Amazing rather than throwing away you have found creative yet simple ways. Thank you for sharing
Hanging shoe organizers are so great for so many thing.
I hust found you and I am so happy I did. I looooove repurposing things and live more sustainable. This is a great video. Lots of love from South Africa. ⚘
Wonderful! Thanks!
The sanitizer wipes container. I use it to hold the toilet bowl brush. I also use them, cut down, to start vegetable plants. Thank you for such an informative video.
Great idea!!
These are so good!!! I have to save this video and come back to it!!
brilliant idea...to use the paperclip on your desk for holding any cable...was NEW to me..otherwise..reuse stuff..what I learned from my mom...as Mother Earth otherwise has to DIGEST it..which she often CAN'T.. ;)
I just found your channel. The caption on the video caught my attention. I appreciate that you get right down to the point and give practical information. I did see several items I could recycle in ways I had not previously thought of.
Great!
Romen noodle multi pack boxes are great for organizing drawers too
Love the binder clip idea!!
So glad!
Loved the plastic bag for phone/tablet in the shower-idea!! 😄 That was really new to me. Thank you.
OMG I am going to try the magazine holder one.
Thank you for all the wonderful and creative ideas! I have always been fascinated by any kind of re-purposing. I have also figured out that a lot of talented and creative people had to be involved in the original item we use to re-invent. We are just taking (in a good way) advantage of all that engineering process. 👍☺️👏
Absolutely! The beauty of one person's creativity is that it can give birth to the creativity in someone else! Thanks for your comment!!
