Finished cleaning out your house and left with a huge pile of junk? There are plenty of ways to deal with your stuff, and not all of them involve moving it to markets or recycling centers. One great option is hosting a yard sale, allowing you to clear out unwanted items while making a little extra cash. Here are some helpful tips to make it successful: Just because you can sell anything at a yard sale doesn’t mean you should. Avoid selling items that are broken, missing parts, unsafe, or overly worn. These items can make the rest of your sale less appealing to potential buyers. Clean and polish the items you plan to sell to increase their value and attract more customers. Finally, only put gently used items in front, as these will be the most appealing to buyers.

We all tend to accumulate piles of unwanted paper at home, from old school assignments to work documents—just heaps of paper we no longer use. Tossing it out repeatedly can leave us feeling guilty about adding to the waste. Here's a simple solution to ease that guilt: recycle all your old paper and make a positive impact!

Fun Crafts To Do With Friends Or Your Kids

Origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, transforms a simple sheet of paper into stunning creations. With Origami, you can craft countless imaginative designs, like a paper swan! All it takes is a square piece of paper and a quick Google search for instructions. It's a great way to repurpose paper, and these handmade creations make thoughtful gifts for friends!

Make Your Recycled Paper

Got a pile of unusable paper? Turn it into something new and exciting with this simple and enjoyable recycling process!


Start by shredding the extra paper and blending it with water until it forms a paste. Next, fill a large container halfway with water, add a handful of the paste, and stir. Use an old frame with a net attached to scoop up the paper fibers from the mixture. Let the water drain out, leaving a flat layer of paper pulp on the net. Flip it onto a towel and let it dry.


In just a few hours, you’ll have a brand-new, handmade piece of paper! Add a creative twist by mixing colors into the paste to create vibrant, personalized sheets—perfect for crafting or gifting.

Make Festive Decorations Out Of Paper

Just like creating handmade paper, you can craft unique decoration pieces to add a personal touch to your holiday decor.


While Origami is a popular option, did you know you can also turn paper into a clay-like material to shape it however you like? Simply soak plenty of paper in water for about an hour. Once softened, drain the water completely and press the paper together to form your desired shape—how about a tiny Santa? After shaping, spray it with varnish to hold its form, and then paint it for a festive finish.



It’s a creative and eco-friendly way to make your holidays extra special!
