# Items to save after Christmas for Resourcefully Creative Girls ...

You shouldn't throw all of your Christmas decorations away after the holidays end. You can reuse most of the items. How? [Redbook Mag](https://www.redbookmag.com/home/g3101/reusable-christmas-decorations/?slide=9) has some ideas for you, and here they are:

## 1. Broken Ornaments

If you're going to keep your ornaments, you should be careful not to cut yourself. As long as you're cautious, try some of these ways to reuse broken ornaments from [Country Living](https://bit.ly/1KdAEnh).

## 2. Burned out Lights

_ Your burned out lights won't be able to light up anymore, but you can still use them. You can try to create this adorable wreath from Mommy Is Coocoo_.

## 3. Wrapping Paper Scraps

You know those tiny scraps of wrapping paper you can't wrap anything with? Well, you can use them to decorate your desk or to create strings of garland next year.

## 4. Tinsel Garland

This doesn't have to be reserved for Christmas time. You can decorate your house with it on New Year's or on your birthday.

## 5. Empty Wine Bottles
