Watch the Talk of the Town video from the show: Multi-Use Household Items
Are you joining me for the first time after seeing my segment on RePurposing Everyday Items on Talk of the Town today?
Don’t worry if you missed any of the tips. I’ve got all the details for you right here!
In an economy where everyone is trying to stretch their dollars, the easiest way is to find new uses for things you already have lying around your house!
If you start looking differently at your common household objects, you just might be surprised to find how else you can not only use, re-use and repair items you might have otherwise think you’d have to toss!
