If you’re crafty or have any type of office supplies I use mine for paper clips, binder clips, tacks, sewing pins, buttons. You could use shorter/wider ones for storing jewelry since air tight containers are best from keeping pieces from tarnishing or getting a patina anyway (it’ll slow that from happening anyway). If you have cute or unique looking jars use them as bud vases for some flowers on bookshelves or a vanity. You could use them to collect things like sand/seashells/rocks from traveling and roadtrips. You could start a change jar to put all your change from things throughout the year in and add it up at the end of the year.

i've been moving a massive bag of friendship bracelet string from nightstand drawer to nightstand drawer for probably the last 10 years. i was feeling crafty so i started taking the string, cutting it to the lengths of a piece of paper, and making a picture out of the different colored string. big fun - highly recommend letting ur little fingers take control and do some arts & crafts

I bought this roll of string in 2022 and I keep finding uses for it. I hung a stained glass biplane from my window with it. I made little loops in lieu of hooks for a new shower curtain when I didn’t want to go return to home depot. I have tied up countless gifts’ wrapping paper with it. I tied up a bunch of stacks of things when moving with it
honestly I don’t know how I would get on without string

So we all think it’s sketchy that Tik Tok is already back right? And that they posted a statement kissing Trump’s ass and making him out to be the one saving Tik Tok when he isn’t even sworn in yet? And now Trump wants the US government to have a 50% ownership, aka turning Tik Tok into state owned media just like I thought was happening. And I’m sure most people won’t be able to stay away from Tik Tok and Meta which is so disappointing. I want nothing to do with Tik Tok now because I know the app as we knew it is already gone at this point.

There’s something about the quality of digital camera photos that make a picture of anything you take look more pleasing (to me anyway). The nostalgia, the saturation, I love them. I have a couple cameras that still work from when I was a kid, but I also bought one on eBay that was similar to one that used to be a favorite of mine. I just throw it in my purse and take it everywhere, and it’s so much more fun than trying to get the “perfect shot,” especially now that I’ve deleted Meta and gone with Pixelfed it seems that people love posting anything from the little things they see or their drinks. It’s making photo sharing fun again! Although, if you do download Pixelfed (which isn’t the point of this post but) I highly recommend using it in your browser on your phone for now, they’ve already made things run smoother from when I first downloaded but they’re definitely still working on the app.

I’ve already read 48 books in 2025 while being on my flip phone, social media detox life. Yes, some of them were just trashy romance, but still. It’s been so nice to get back into reading for enjoyment again. It’s nice to be out and about and not have that constant urge to reach for a phone and check notifications.
I don’t even have most social media apps downloaded on this anymore, I love this app though, and the urge to click on an app and doom-scroll is nonexistent. This brick of technology has really turned into my iPod and Kindle, and the occasional pop back on here.
