I'm doing some spring cleaning and coming across a lot of junk. I don't want to throw it away so I'm trying to find uses for it. Found a lot of paper towel tubes, a lot of old shirts and boxers, some vacuum cleaner bags, a giant ziplock bag, tons of boxes, etc.

Discovering crafting recipes by trial and error is wasteful and time-consuming. I figured maybe would could compile our knowledge and create a Crafting Compendium.

Here are some of the recipes I discovered to far:

paper towel tube + scissors = 2 toilet paper tube + cardboard scraps

3 toilet paper tube + duct tape + scissors = paper towel tube + cardboard scraps

paper towel tube + imagination = Bane voice scrambler

jar + rubber band + coffee filter = bacon grease purifier

30 paper towel tube + duct tape = remote communication device

giant ziplock bag + infant nephew = no longer invited to Thanksgiving

2 box + duct tape = end table

old shirt + scissors = grease rag

ripped shorts + theatrical blood = bloody-looking ripped shorts (for pranks or Halloween)


Let me know what else you've discovered. (I badly need a recipe for the vacuum cleaner bags. They are dust buster sized.)

The one the only. Accept no substitutes.
3 Cups of Dryer Lint
2 Cups Warm Water
2/3 Cup Non Self-Rising Wheat Flour
3 Drops Wintergreen Oil
Newspaper

Place lint and water in a saucepan. Stir to dampen lint. Add flour and stir thoroughly to prevent lumps. Add wintergreen oil. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly until mixture holds together and forms stiff peaks. Pour out onto several thicknesses of newspaper. Shape over large rounded object roughly the size of your head. Allow 3-5 days to dry.

You now have a dryer lint helmet.

Man I love Kraft Macaroni & Cheese (Kraft Dinner for the canadians) and I've got some great recipes

Try putting some sliced up hot dogs or hot links in your kraft mac n cheese. You can also try throwing in hamburger (plain or seasoned however you like), chicken (plain or seasoned), shrimp (plain or seasoned), basically any type of meat! Really the only limitation is your imagination when you have Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Dinners!
