Card tables are so sturdy, and they have so many uses, that it’s really easy to rehome even if they’re decades old. Older churches and garages tend to have a few of these laying around. Spiders love them so I definitely encourage you to rehome them and keep them clean. I personally use two when…

My son’s school has a uniform resale store. I love it! The girls have the option to wear skirts and we were in desperate need for what are officially called pants hangers. Some of the skirts were double clipped two to a hanger, some were clotheslined or binder clipped to a regular hanger, it was…
I don’t even know how many families these have been through at this point, at least four. Cookies cutters, particularly for play dough, just keep on working and being great!

If you must use paper certificates and work hard on the animation. Austin Creative Reuse is one of the few places and ways I’m…
Geode smashing is a fun and easy way to entertain my son! We went to Nature’s Treasures for the geodes at his request and we already had the hammers, safety glasses and ear muffler. He did end up really getting into it so I had him put on my rain boots to protect his legs…
Photo drop from Austin Creative Reuse today! They take so much stuff!

They take it all! Austin Creative Reuse #creativereuse #regome #downsizing #declutter…
