Every few years, these cards expire and are replaced by new, active cards. Add all those spent gift cards that are destined for the landfill and we're talking about one big pile of worthless plastic. I laughed when I read a recent article at CreditCards.com on imag- inative ways to use an old credit card for fun and recycling joy. I got some great ideas, too. I am going to try some of these, and I bet you will want to, as well. • IPhone stand. What iPhone owner doesn't need a right and proper stand for the device? After all, you want your hands free to eat popcorn when you decide to watch a full-length movie on it. All you need are a couple of expired credit cards and a pair of scissors to make a sturdy stand. The best part is this stand can be stored flat for easy traveling, which makes it conve- nient for entertaining children on long cross-country flights. • Battery cover. You know that little flat piece of plastic that covers the battery on your camera, phone or remote control? It's important to keep the battery protected, clean and dry. But often that little cover slips away and gets lost. I have no idea where it goes, but it's a common problem. Don't worry. You easily can craft a replace- ment cover from an old credit card. Full satisfac- tion guaranteed! • Earrings. This is just way too funny -- and amazingly beautiful! I think I need a pair of credit card earrings. Sim- ply cut out the shape you desire, and glue the pieces back to back so both sides are the "right" side. Add ear wires and jump rings and you're set. Decorative gift cards make especially good- looking earrings. • Cord organizer. If the cords from your computer, scanner, print- er, mouse, lamp and other electron- ic devices are all jumbled up under your desk, take heart. You can cre- ate a cable organizer from an old credit card! Simply punch holes along one of the long sides with a Mary Hunt Everyday Cheapskate hole puncher. Then cut from the edge into each hole so you can slip the problem cables into the card. This will keep the cords straight. If you have many cables, simply glue several cards together. • Guitar picks. They're not really expensive, but musicians will tell you that guitar picks disappear, and when you need one, you usually don't have time to run to the music store to pick one up. An old, expired credit card is made of the perfect material to make a new one. All you need is a Sharpie and scis- sors. Trace the shape, and cut it out. Let the jam ses- sion begin.
