The Preachers Wife

Does your printer suddenly become obsessed with eating paper like mine does? I’ve concluded that not only does my computer dislike me but my printer is none too fond of me either. So, I’ve decided to reuse and recycle.

Any paper that is scratch paper, cut it up and use that for little notes, grocery lists, phone messages, or just to test out ink pens. You can also shred it up for curtain stuffing (though I would not recommend using paper for pillows, stuffing puff curtains with paper tends to be a good choice). Or, is you know the paper is fine, cut strips for icing a cake to keep your decorative plates icing-free.

And, for the more imaginative (and the ones with kids, in particular little girls) cut the paper into strips, and glue it onto a stick. It makes a sweet pom pom for the cheer-leading enthusiast.

Got another use for scratch paper? Post it in the comments!
