I’d use christmas wrapping paper! Why spend money on scrapbook paper at $1 a sheet?

Good idea, or even used Christmas cards.
I admit that I love paper.
When you are near an old fashioned printer, you know, for flyers, wedding invitations, etc, one that does the printing in the back room.
Ask them if they have pads and remnants of their papers for sale.
I have gone to several and bought card stock for making card and other fancy uses, for 50 cents a 100 sheets, memo pads for a dime, etc.
Then go back and look in their dumpster for the real scraps.
Many card makers dig in the dumpsters for the paper scraps, so you may find a waiting line.
The other dumpster that I checked when in town, is the one behind the telephone office that was down town, the employees are not smart enough to remove the pages from a 3 ring notebook and toss them in the trash.
By notebook, I am talking about the ones we buy kids for school, that you open the ‘0’rings and put your paper in.
The other item that is worth digging out, is the big cables of the many wires, that they use to hook up the big stuff, I am thinking of the word ‘cables’.
You can split the covering with a sharp knife and remove the many small covered wires, that have colored plastic coating.
Now you have plant ties.
Weave small artistic baskets with the wire.
You would be able to braid or crochet it, I intended to use the one I dug out for front door entry rug. Someone stole it from me.
I missed this post earlier. I admit to being a paper nut, too. I’ve always worked with people who view going to Office Max as recreation.
