I just love that Max! And, watching that goofy antler tied to his head and his forehead wrinkles. lmao! I know, small minds, are easily amused. Anyway, it got me thinking.

What can I do with antlers? It’s not that I have a bunch lying around. I just thought it would be an interesting discussion. ;)

Let me have it! What in the world can I do with Antlers?

Now, what the heck do we DO with it?! ;)

One ended up with the bottom rusting out (yes, it was rusty when I got it, but I didn’t know it was THAT rusty). The other, my rotten puppy ate the handles. (yes, he’s a goober).

Anyway, I have these two wheel barrows that aren’t fully functional. I’ve seen people use them as planters, but I’m wondering if there are any other uses for them? Maybe I can just buy some new handles? ;) Or turn the barrow part into a sandbox or something? Not that I’ll ever actually get around to doing that, but I’m just curious.

By the way, my husband and I had an arguement whether it was a wheelbarrow or a wheel barrel. lol. Any votes?

One of the things that I remember about her is that she always had tins filled with spare buttons. I have no idea why she kept them all (except that she maybe I get some of my packrat genes from her) — but she always had oodles of spare buttons. All of us kids loved to sort them, and line them up. Maybe that’s why she had them around. ;)

Other than entertaining your grandchildren, what are some uses for spare buttons?

This isn’t something that I save up. Imagine that! The packrat actually DOES get rid of something. ;)

However, I am always thinking of creative or frugal ways to use cardboard boxes to save me money. I do use them for basic storage of plastic items. However, I can’t use them for a lot of storage since I live in Florida and need WATERPROOF storage to make sure my items are hurricane proof.

So, creative moms. Do you have any clever or fun ideas to use those occasional big cardboard boxes that I come across? I’m definitely listening.

I’m thinking of some Halloween costumes made from boxes and will post them soon…

That’s something you’ll learn more and more about me as this blog goes on. I’ll post “What can I do with it” and people like my mom will be thinking “THROW IT AWAY!” ;) I, however, believe I’ll need it or use it someday. And some things, I have just developed an attachment to and I’m not willing to let it go.

This website is for those of us who have STUFF and don’t know what to do with it. It’s also to provide uses for items you might otherwise throw away.

So, whether you’re here for the frugal aspect, the environmental aspect or just out of sheer morbid curiosity, you’ll find something interesting.

We’ll be posting random things we find while we’re out and about and you, our brilliant readers, can tell us WHAT CAN I DO WITH IT?!

Stay tuned…
