Recycle Rubber Bands – Where Can I Wednesday?

Rebecca asks on our Facebook Wall:

After collecting enough rubber bands to form a bouncy ball, what should you do. Here’s a few ideas of where to recycle rubber bands:

• The United States Postal Service (USPS ) reuses them. Try leaving them in your mailbox or drop them off the next time you visit the post office.
• Check local schools or non-profit orgs like Cradles to Crayons to see if they need any.
• Use them on hangers to secure your clothes from falling off.
• Wrap them around opened food in the kitchen to help them last longer
• Tie dye!
• Try bringing them into the office (and put in your office supply closet) so colleagues can use them.
• Wrap a rubber band around the “neck” of a soap dispenser to reduce the amount used each time.
• Try saving your reading spot in your current book!
• Or you could always make a dress:
