Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and we might all be looking for a little “green” love to share this holiday.

The Green Queen has a few pinspirations to share that might be just the ticket to get you going toward recycling, repurposing and reusing.

Do you have a stack of books sitting around the house that you just can’t part with but you’ve read one too many times to put the time back into them? Well here’s a way to have them help put time back into you. Simply turn your books into a shelf. This green bookshelf will end up helping you in more ways than one. By getting organized with the help of these old books, you just might find that you have a few more minutes in your day to do the things you’ve been putting off, like reading a new book.

And, if that’s not enough to get you reusing your old materials laying around your house, how ’bout this craft?

You can make scratch paper from recycled books. If you want to find out how, just pop over here.
