I'm looking for ways to increase my re-use of things around the house. Any ideas appreciated. It would be good to cut down on waste, and spending!
Most of my re-use lately has been focused on the little container garden I've set up. I now have things growing in empty protein powder canisters, milk jugs that have been cut down, and a cracked casserole dish. (Which actually seems to suit my salad leaves perfectly, they've really taken off.) Also made a pretty decent "watering can" by just punching some holes in the cap of a milk jug. Saved myself about twenty-five quid all in I figure.
We had a couple of crappy wooden folding chairs break recently, I'm thinking of making a laundry maiden from the pieces. We'll see how it works out.
Need a new bath mat, so I'm going to turn a couple of baggy t-shirts into Tarn and knit a nice cushy one up from that.
Other suggestions?
