Holiday Countdown: Newspapers

19 days left until the holidays.

If you are looking for a fun and creative way to upcycle some of your old newspapers, here are some great crafty project ideas.

From my research about upcylcing old newspapers I have found three main ways to turn them into projects.  The three ways I have found are rolling them into tubes, taking the tubes and making coils, and creating yarn.  If you are less crafty and more practical, you could also consider creating planters.

Some projects you can make from newspaper coils include trash cans, bags, bowls and doormats.

In this tutorial you can see how to make newspaper yarn as well.
