Sue Talbert of annarbor.com recenty wrote an article about creating her own easy to use fire-starters by using items in the home that she would normally throw away any way.  It is a highly creative use and a great idea for making your fireplace easier to use and making use of items you already have on hand and reducing the amount of waste that your household put out.

The full article is here.

I love this idea for the fact that it not only makes use of normally wasted materials but it saves you from spending money on commercial fire-starters as well. A double win!

If you have any great ideas like this feel free to pass them along.
