Recycling is Kind

This is like a 4 x 6 pillow that I attempted to embroidery.  It looked pretty good until I looked at the photo, then all the flaws show up.

Nevertheless I am posting it because...it is stuffed with recycled shredded paper.  It has a very firm feel,  kinda like the old fashioned things that were stuffed with excelsior back in the day.

Anyway it is kind to recycle!

You are probably the only one who will see any flaws. It looks great to me. I like the idea of using recycled material to stuff it with

I never really thought about stuffing anything with shredded paper but that's not a bad idea at all. I always have some of that on hand. I'd gone out and bought stuffing for some fun sock snowmen we did with the kids before Christmas. That shredded paper would have done the trick and wouldn't have cost a cent! Not only that but you recycled a few other things making that pillow from the looks of things. Always good to recycle when we can!

To increase your stamina playing the guitar,Play Bazaar you have to have strong hands and fingers. The caterpillar exercise is one routine that helps you build the same muscles that go into playing the guitar. It involves fretting one note at a time, moving slowly across the neck as you build strength in your finger muscles.Satta King
