We mounted a fairly large white dry erase marker board in our inner hallway. Original thought was to have a place for kids to draw (they loved it). Over time, we all used it to leave messages for each other, make lists, post reminders. Kids are grown but message board is still used daily!
Don't buy bag clips, clothes pins, etc, recycle your wired bag ties from the produce department or from bread bags that have them. You can reclose opened bags, etc using them and also use them for craft items to tie things together like bows, flowers, etc. I've used them to even organize loose pencils, pens, etc in drawers and cabinets. There are endless uses for them. Post your uses here too. You may know of some that I don't.
