Aluminum pie plates Use a pie plate for baking and reheating food. Use aluminum pie plates as freezer containers. Fill with baked goods, berries, or other foods, then wrap and freeze. Use a pie plate to cover a fresh pie in a similar-sized plate to make for easier transport. The mop can be washed in the washing machine after use.
Belts Make a cat or dog collar with a discarded belt or one bought at a thrift sale.
Cut to size and add a metal ring to the buckle to attach identification and license tags. Paint bottle caps red and black and use them to replace missing checkers. Carpet remnants Use carpet scraps to give your feet extra insulation from the cold. Line boots or rubbers by tracing your foot on a piece of paper to make a pattern, then use the outline to cut the carpeting to fit. This works well for children's snow boots.
