10 New Uses For Old Magazines

by on Aug 30, 2013

I have a million and one magazines stored in a filing cabinet in our basement. I know that you can read almost everything online these days, but I just can’t let go of those printed pretties I’ve collected over the years. If you’re a mag-hoarder like me, here are a few projects to make using your beloved old magazines!      

An orange bow on a present, a pair of black scissors, a picture of a young girl, a picture and a drawing of people and a multicolored frame with a cat picture in it.
