We pretty much stopped using wrapping paper decades ago, when I decided that it was a waste to throw away beautiful paper that had been used only once just to wrap a gift. I started making gift bags out of fabric I had left from other projects, and then started buying remnants of holiday prints in January after the Christmas season. And family members who have arthritic hands found these bags were great because wrapping gifts was hard on their hands, so we gave them each a stack of bags. We've been using some of the same bags for almost 40 years now, and seeing them each year is almost like seeing old friends again. And it's surprising that fabric that wouldn't make attractive clothese actually makes nice looking bags. We still use paper to wrap gifts we are giving to people outside the family, but we haven't had to buy paper for years since our supply has lasted a long time. I think some of your viewers would enjoy using this idea, and they could even repurpose old clothes --- plaid flannel shirts would make great looking gift bags.

Another Butt heel bread idea.. I take my butt ends and put them in the toaster, let them air dry over night and then run through the food processor.. My own bread crumbs for baking fish, chicken etc I add a little Italian Seasoning to mine and shake up the container. Easy and not wasteful. I haven't bought Panko Crumbs in years. Btw if you have thicker bread slices you might have to toast it twice in the toaster. Anna In Ohio

Hi Jennifer, Thanks for all the great ideas you & your followers have given us. I use the saucer part of a cup/saucer for plant dishes to catch water or just to dress up a faux plant so it looks even more real. It's good for a cracker plate or chip plate if you want to keep them from getting soggy in a dinner plate, even a small charqutery dish for the cheese etc. Also jewelry holder on a dresser or next to the kitchen sink for those that remove rings/bracelets. good for plants outside on the patio to dress it up also. Thanks for all your ideas! I will keep watching as I am a new subscriber. I like how real you are & that you move right along explaining things. Bye for now

When we had a cat I used the grocery plastic bags for scooping his litter box.

I have a tip. For the toilet paper rolls if u don't want to use a rubber band to hold yr bags of stuff then use the toilet paper rolls place the bag in it and then turn the bag after putting in the roll and then turn it inside out once the bag is placed thru the roll so it doesn't stop u from using a tie or rubber band...😊

❤I havent used "feminine products" in years, I choose period panties (tight short shorts as well for extra flow) and an absorbant tissue, recommended❤
@lilypudd 4 ай бұрын
Just a heads up...some period panties have absorbent crystals sewn inside the crotch. They work great but after so many washings can start to dissolve and that creates a powder that can come through the fabric & irritate sensitive "parts". Not sure which brands, just have friends that have used them & have had to deal with the irritations.

@@lilypudd Thanks, correction: by period panties I meant panties that are either black or a darkish colour or that I have "made" into period panties.. Funny, I think "feminine product" companies have caught on and actually market those.. they sell them in Israel for almost 30 USD, what a joke... regular panties are just fine and probably better, cotton is most likely best

UK bread doesn’t have those ties. We have a sticky band go round the top. I just twist the top and put away. Never get hard bread.

I just tie a loose knot with the open end of bag. I don't mess with ties.

When we travel I always pack a couple of clothes pins. I pack them to seal any snack bags we might open but, I lost count on how many times I've used them to keep the drapes in the hotel rooms completely closed :-)
