4 Clever Ideas for Reusing Old Newspapers.
Old newspapers drag on quickly, especially if you read the news every day.
Instead of clogging the trash cans stupidly, you might as well recycle them, right?
I got these 4 clever ideas from my grandmother for reusing old newspapers:
1. To make copper pots shine
I can tell you that her brass has never looked so good as when she started to brick them with her old newspapers.
Not a single product on his copper pots and pitchers: just a newspaper and elbow grease.
Otherwise, there is also the white of Meudon.
2. To absorb moisture from shoes
If my grandfather tended to sweat in his shoes, I can assure you that it didn't panic my grandmother who quickly found the trick.
Hop! a few old newspapers gathered in a ball, placed directly in the shoes. Moisture (and odor) gone.
