An empty cereal box doesn't have to go straight to the recycling bin. RePlayGround demonstrates how you can turn it into a snazzy wallet or business-card holder with just a bit of elastic.

To get started, download, print, and cut out the paper template on RePlayGround's Web site. Next, score lines and punch holes according to the directions. To keep everything safe and snug, insert a piece of elastic through the holes and tie a double knot at the end. Fill your new wallet with cash, business cards, or coupons to buy more cereal. ::RePlayGround
