To reuse means to find new purpose for something that has lost its original function.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Thinking about reuse implies a dose of creativity. And everyone is at least a little bit creative. Before throwing away a used-up item, we can always think \u2013 what other purpose could this serve?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some ideas to encourage this line of thinking<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jars and pots can be used to store food or items in the kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A jar can become a pencil (or other small items) holder.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

  • Old newspapers can be used to wrap fragile items when moving to another home,<\/li>
  • When buying products, consider the potential reuse of their packaging \u2013 choose products whose packaging stimulates your creativity.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Furniture can be restored in many creative ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    A worn-out chair can become a shelf.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    • Old cotton T-shirts can become cleaning cloths,<\/li>
    • Old books with torn covers can be wrapped and thus repaired, and it is always nicer to give books away than to throw them away,<\/li>
    • Old windows with undamaged glass panes can be turned into small greenhouses for growing seedlings.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      A sheet of paper printed on one side can be used for notes and drawing on the blank side.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      \n

      With a little creativity, you can redesign, refresh and mend your clothes yourself.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      You can give away items that are not broken or used-up, but you no longer use.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
