The blog is full of ideas to repurpose what most people would call trash or toss out simply because it seems as though it no longer has value.
But Trash Backwards finds value.
This post about Silica Gel caught my eye.
They share 13 uses for silica gel packets -- you know the packets found in shoes, purses etc.?
1) Put packets of silica gel in with your silverware. It slows down the tarnishing process.
2) Place them inside your camera cases, with lenses, to keep your equipment dry.
3) Put silica gel in with your boxes of stored photos and slides to preserve them longer.
4) Your down jackets and down sleeping bags will benefit from a few packets of silica gel to keep moisture out.
5) Put a few packets in with your garden seeds to keep them dry.
6) Stash a packet or 2 with your jewelry to prevent tarnishing
7) All keepsakes in the attic in boxes can benefit from a few silica packets nearby.
Do you have any tips for alternative uses for the tiny packets?
