I'm a member of my school's Roots and Shoots group (http://www.rootsandshoots.org/ ), an organization started by Jane Goodall to help people, animals, and the environment. As a way to raise money to help several of our projects, our group will be holding a recycled crafts fair during lunch for one week before the winter holidays. So far, we're planning to sell the following crafts:

- Recycled crayons http://www.marthastewart.com/page.jhtml?type=content&id=channel178245&catid=cat253
- Scented, handmade paper
- Small clutches, ipod cozies, cell phone holders from plastic bags
http://www.marloscrochetcorner.com/bag%20cutting%20instructions.html
- Soda tab bracelets (much faster than belts)

- Origami from recycled paper
- Paper beads & stuff made from them

So what we're looking for are recycled craft ideas that high schoolers would buy (that we could sell for under $20) for themselves, their friends, siblings, or parents. Nothing too festive, though- we're trying to get last minute shoppers by selling before winter break, but, if we don't sell well, we want to be able to sell them again in the spring. All ideas/links welcome!
