Reusing is easy with this simple tissue box project.

If you've got a tissue box sitting around your home that you're not using—now is the time to find a new life for it. (For the record, I'm talking about permanent tissue boxes—not the cardboard ones that come with your tissues). I had a nice wooden one that I didn't want to get rid of, but wasn't using anymore. With just a bit of thought, I figured I could easily turn this box into a candle holder for my wall. And, in fact, as I write this, the candles are glowing on the box—now hung next to my bed.

Making a candle holder for your wall from a tissue box is easy. You can do it in less than five minutes and spare an item from being wasted. *Note* If you like this project but don't have a tissue box around, try shopping at your local thrift store. Thrift stores are great resources for all things vintage and taking anything off of their hands and putting it to use is green.
