GREAT READS

Don't Throw It Out

Lori Baird and the editors of Yankee magazine.

This book is filled with interesting ideas and worth flipping through. The strangest suggestion was to make bracelets out of old tooth brushes. I will not be doing that, but I might try to take apart my toaster and clean it inside as recommended to fix uneven toasting. I will even try the suggestion of spraying stain remover on dead bugs for easier removal when car washing. Many of the tips are things I am already doing such as making my own fire starters out of lint, paper egg containers and used candle wax. Whatever you are doing to recycle, I am sure you will read some tip in this book that you can use.  A great guidebook for creative and fun ideas.
