Hello everyone,

I'm not sure if this is the place for this, hope I'm posting in the correct section.

Basically, I have a room full of tapes of all sorts. I've seen on the forums that unless it's something with a cult following no one wants them. Also charity shops are full of them and can't take anymore. I've seen my library stocks a lot but I really doubt they are used.

Has anyone any ideas of what to do with old VHS tapes?
Thanks

Actually that's not a bad idea....lol....... you could see if either the fashion or art students at college need them for projects.
When my friend was in art school [many moons ago] she designed and made dresses from Recycled newspaper, obviously you couldn't tell they were paper as she used fabric as well, and dyed/painted the paper, fusing it with interfacing annd glitter glued the cut edges.
