The 3 R's (reduce, reuse, recycle)
At an early age my parents worked hard to instill in me a hefty measure of guilt. It stuck. And because of that guilt, I'm always looking for ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle, sometimes to incyr's chagrin. This post concerns the second of the 3 R's, reusing.
I am a Postcrosser. http://www.postcrossing.com/ Postcrossing is like penpaling for the modern age. You sign up on the website and when you want to send a postcard, the website spits out the address of a random user from halfway across the world. It's pretty awesome and I highly recommend it. The only problem is (well, besides the skyrocking cost of postage) is when you finish sending the last postcard in your book of postcards you're left with the empty cover. You could recycle it, or....
...You could make an awesome notepad instead! The notepad is literally sewn together with heavy duty thread I had leftover from sewing buttons on my steampunk jacket and the pages are made out of the envelopes you get from banks or charities or whatnot. I already gifted one to entelein and this one I'm going to use to take notes on the Dark Heresy campaign I'm participating in.
