Magazines that arrive in the mail are often in a clear plastic sack. Open it carefully instead of ripping it hurriedly and you have a nice sack to save items for crafts, newspaper clippings you intend to send to your nephew, recipes you have no time to file at the moment or decorating ideas. It's amazing how many items you get in the mail that are usable and don't cost you anything except for the time it takes to clip them.
In my image you can see a few items I save and will probably end up using in crafts. The flowered item held junk mail but is too pretty to regard as JUNK. The envelope toward the back could be used to stash coupons or fill with things that deserve a window.

I love to create junk mail journals. I love to save my junk mail when it is so pretty. I never thought of saving my magazine packages. Thank you for the wonderful idea.
I been doing this for years and I also wash them out and use them for fruit and vegetable storage works very well.
