New Use for an Everyday Item…

November 11th, 2007 • Related • Filed Under

I think it’s pretty cool when we can figure out ways to be resourceful and not spend more money on household items. For example, Real Simple gave me this great idea for the many loose pictures I have just laying around. Why buy more photo frames when I could neatly display them with unused bifrom RealSimple.comnder clips?

Display Photos with Binder Clips

Original Purpose: Securing papers.
Aha! Use: Displaying photos, postcards, or recipe cards. Attach two 3/4-inch clips to the lower corners (or use a 1 1/4-inch one in the center) and place on your desk.
Reward: A high-visibility, low-commitment photo display (swap it in a week).

The clips can also be used to hold recipe cards, place cards, or reminder notes.
