Once upon a time, a recycling bin sat in the corner, gorging itself on unwanted printouts. After the installation of PaperCut MF , it was used sparingly. A very good thing.
In the depths of the bin, however, the forgotten remaining sheets of paper felt neglected, rejected, and yes even a little lonely.
The disregarded spreadsheet piped up to the non-sticky sticky note and said, “Do you believe in reincarnation?”. I just so happened to be walking past at that very moment and heard their conversation. So I thought I’d give these scraps a second chance at life in the following daggy but practical uses for reusing paper in the office.
1. Paper pistol
On their first day, every new PaperCutter is equipped with a Nerf Gun to protect themselves from spontaneous battles. By following this tutorial , I’ve taken these wars to the next level and created the PaperCut PaperPistol. More on brand, don’t you think?

My stationary has a sneaky way of growing legs and walking away when I need it most. I’m keeping tabs on them AND making my desk look more organised with this stationary holder .

3. Bookmarks
When my laptop is out of charge, I’ll often revisit the stone age by pulling out a journal and pen to record meeting notes. This cute bookmark ensures I’ll never lose my page again!

4. Chatterbox
Sometimes I need to trust in destiny to make a decision. Is it lunchtime? Should I go to this meeting? Will I get a payrise from this article? This nostalgic Chatterbox has the answers.
