Nice to see another giveaway from my favorite Upcycling company. TerraCycle rocks.
As to upcycling ideas and such I invite readers to the GREEN (LIVING) REVIEW (http://greenreview.blogspot.com) and to have a look at the Green Living Book #1 published by us.
When a varmint digs holes in our yard, we bury kitchen scraps in before covering up the hole, hoping it will turn into compost.

I save unusual odds and ends, rolls from plastic wrap and flat pieces of cardboard that can be put to good use in school projects.

I learned that Terracycle has store-specific collection bins at Home Depot, Petco, OfficeMax and Best Buy to encourage consumers to recycle products.
Thanks!

We take the toilet paper roll inside cardboard to the local Humane Society where they stuff it with PB for the dogs we're told.
To name some stuffts that I reuse : containers, jars, and also cereal boxes (for mag holders).
I love to reuse food containers for planting seedlings.
I especially love egg cartons for this, since they can plant right in the ground.

I use gallon milk jugs to take water to the beach to rinse our feet before we get in the car.
I reuse boxes things come in to pack away other things or to mail things.
We reuse yogurt cups and other plastic containers to use for hubbys lunches, fruit salad, green salad, etc, hold well and are a nice portion size!

I found that the recycled materials are used to make affordable, high quality products ranging from tote bags and purses to shower curtains and kites!

I reuse most containers for food storage, lunchboxes, and craft supplies. We recycle all papers for nonessential computer print jobs.
I reuse alot of our containers and store my kids art supplies in them.

I reuse cardboard boxes (shipping and food cartons) for craft projects for myself and my 4 year old. My favorite project was making a once homely looking shoebox into a gorgeous ribbon organizer.
Thanks for offering this contest. Hope we win.

I reuse my glass jars from spaghetti to hold my beans, I put the glass jar that has wax bits in it in the freezer so that I can clean it out and use it for crafts, I keep scrap material for "rag-a-muffin" wreaths. 🙂
