Smart Reuse Ideas + 13 Items My Grandma Never Threw Away

Smart Reuse Ideas + 13 Items My Grandma Never Threw Away

Grandma repurposed everything + so should you. Here are 13 of the best reuse ideas (straight from Grandma!) so that you, too, can save money by wasting less.

My grandparents were incredibly resourceful: They pioneered countless reuse ideas so that nothing valuable was ever wasted.

These days, while many Millennials + Generation Y-ers harbor a collective single-use mindset, generations past had ingrained reuse within well before zero-waste living ever became a ‘thing’.

We can learn an awful lot from our grandparents. On this week’s episode I uncover 13 of the best household reuse ideas straight from Grandma.

Enjoy!
