Recycled Lint Firestarters

Ever wonder what to do with your lint?  This is what I do with it:

You will need:

  • cardboard egg carton
  • dryer sheets
  • lint
  • candle wax

To make:  stuff the egg carton with lint and used dryer sheets, drip (or pour) melted candle wax on top.  Tear off one egg section to start your fire.  So incredibly easy, and such a time saver when you’re needing to start a fire quickly!

These are especially useful in our home, as we have a wood stove and use it all winter long to keep us warm.  However, these are also great to take camping with you too!

Enjoy the warmth!!
