    Ready Made magazine had a piece a few years ago on how to laminate corrugated boxes into panels strong enough to make furnitire from.
    paperboard (cereal boxes) sort of gets used where it can. We make templates from them, so if you know quilters or people who are starting screen printing and are not at the custom material bit, or only making a few prints, see if they need it, or you could make the templates as gifties.
    I have seen bookmarks made from them (base) and also magzine organizers.

    I've turned the cardboard from my incense packs into bookmarks, because I liked the way it looked... but have no idea what to do with anything bigger...
