Packing Paper Has Unlimited Uses!

Packing paper...ya you know the stuff. You go to a store such as Hobby Lobby lets say and you buy something breakable. What does the cashier do? She wraps it in paper. And what does one usually do with the paper? Throw it away or recycle it right? Well before you go crumbling up that paper and throwing it in the trash can there are a few other options for that paper.


I love this paper. I recently have started saving this paper for a few different reasons. And so glad I have!

Here is a list of things you can do with this paper.
  1. Put in your own craft area for scrap paper (you could always use scrap paper right)
  2. Donate it to your local DayCare or Pre-School. I work at one and let me tell you the kids go gangbusters over big sheets of paper. 
  3. Give it to your kids for their own art's and crafts. (painting or coloring)
  4. Use it as a drop sheet when you are painting a craft or project when you don't have newspaper.
  5. Store it away for the next time you move and need to pack breakables.
  6. Keep it in a bin for when you are packing up seasonal decorations.
I'm sure there are more ways to reuse this paper that just haven't been thought of yet. Let me know what you use it for!
