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…

I’m hoping that I’ve got some clever readers who can help.

My kids bring home their brilliant art projects from school every day. I adore their art work and would love to preserve ALL of it, but … I’d have to buy a bigger house in order to do it.

So, what can I do with my kids’ artwork? Any ideas for presentation or preservation? :)

Let me have it.

I keep them because they remind me of people and places I love. However, they are not doing me justice sitting in a box in my garage. ;)

So, creative minds… What Can I DO with these OLD POSTCARDS?
