Popsicle Sticks

Recycle, Reduce, Reuse Tips
Popsicle Sticks

by Catherine Pulsifer


Popsicle sticks have many uses for around the home and garden! Listed below are some of the ways that we recycle, reduce, or, reuse them:


- we use the sticks to stir small amounts of paint, they work great!

- Byron uses them as shims when doing repairs. They are easy to break and usually fit perfect.

- Work great in the garden to mark what type of vegetable/flower we are growing. We use a permanent marker and write on the stick.

- when the children were little we would wash them and reuse them to make their own homemade popsicles from juice.

- When our younger nieces and nephews come they love to build things with the sticks.

- A great project for younger children, is to paint them with acrylic paint and then glue magnets on the back.


If you have any others uses, we would love to add them to our ever evolving recycle, reduce, reuse list, email us.
