We have all got pairs of old shoes. While recycling your old running shoes is always a good idea, you can put your laces to good use too. Just make sure that you give your old laces a good washing. Here are four ways to put your old laces back into use.
- Turn shoelaces into pet toys. String a lace or two through a mini jingle bell and you’ll get your kitty riled up in no time.
- Add a stylish touch to long braids. Add an interesting shoelace to your ponytail or braid it through your hair. If you have shorter hair, try it as a headband.
- Use laces as ribbon when you’re wrapping presents. Use a simple knot and you’re good to go. Add beads to the laces for added creativity and your wrapping job will be as special as a gift within.
- Make your tablecloth fit your table. If your tablecloth doesn’t fit your table, use your old laces to tie each corner of the tablecloth into what resembles a ponytail. You can leave the shoelaces showing of if you would rather hide it with the tablecloth; pooch the fabric on top of the shoelace knot by pulling it upward, back through the shoelace knot.
