Did you know it's #NationalCerealDay today? What's your favorite cereal? And most importantly what creative reuse projects have you made with the boxes/bags?! ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ My favorite cereals are not too sweet and are definitely crunchy vs. soggy. Bonus points if it contains granola chunks -- YUM! I'm a big fan of this @TraderJoes Coconut Cranberry Granola...and of course, I always love #traderjoes packaging...not only is it colorful with fun words and designs, but it's often filled with lots of reuse potential! ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ Recently I started creating my own business cards and I'm having a blast handing them out. I love watching people pick the envelope that appeals to them, watch them open it and then share the words bestowed on them by a creatively reused fortune. Yes, this is a legit collection acquired over many years 🙂⠀ .⠀ .⠀ Check out this 45 second video to see my process in making them. Special thanks to bensound.com for the royalty free music.⠀ .⠀ #upcycling #traderjoeslove #papercrafts #cereallovers #creativereuse #upcycledcerealboxes #handmadebusinesscards #DIYmarketing #cerealboxart
