I keep a pile in my classroom - good for underlining. Students can pick one of their choice. They are often surprised that I only bring in used ones!

Please do NOT throw away your mascara wands. Instead, clean JUST THE WAND with dawn soap, place them in a ziploc bag and mail them to a Wildlife Refuge accepting donations. These little wands are able to be upcycled to clean away oil, larvae, fly eggs, mites, infections, mud and other contaminants from wildlife. Works great for medical care and wound treatment

Pick your refuge to mail to:

Appalachian Wild
P.O. Box 1211
Skyland NC 28776

OR

Wildlife Wands
P.O. Box 1586
Southwick, MA 01077.

My absolute favorite use is frost/ice scrapers for the car-- AWESOME!

I noticed that - some can be reloaded. I always recycle. What would we do without gift cards?
