Using tape, glue, scissors, and a few other craft supplies, you can easily turn the following materials into decor, art projects, and other items, such as...
1) Books and Magazines: Turn book and/ or magazine pages into wall decor, gift tags, magnets, and/ or even jewelry. Use the bindings of books and magazines, or stack the books on top of one another, to create shelves, jewelry boxes, shadow boxes, and other small containers.
2) Boxes: Decorating old boxes, such as a shoe box or a shipping box, can create: ottomans, decorative storage containers, shelf organizers, and more.
3) Bottles and Cans: Turn bottles and cans into planters, pencil/ utensil holders, self-watering plant vases, bird feeders, and more.
4) Newspapers: Tearing newspapers into strips can create the material needed to be threaded into baskets, picture frames, and trash cans.
5) Milk Cartons: Old milk cartons and jugs can be washed and then made into many crafts such as lanterns, building blocks, etc.
