Great Uses for Vinyl Scraps

Here are some great uses for vinyl scraps that you might not have thought of.

Do you have a drawer that is covered in stains like nail polish or makeup residue that just won't come off?
BEFORE
Measure the inside of your drawer. Lay your vinyl scraps out and measure out the width of your drawer.
Using a ruler or some sort of straight edge, cut out your vinyl with a utility knife to fit your measurements.
Remember to keep your edges square.
Just lay the vinyl into the drawer and now you have a brand new clean drawer again.

AFTER

Use vinyl scraps in the cabinets under your sinks to protect the wood from drips and spills.

Westridge Elementary

Carpets America recently donated the carpet for an Eagle Scout Project at Westridge Elementary School in Provo. Mike is in charge of the scouts in his neighborhood and was happy to help out with this project.

At the school the Scouts and Parent Volunteers cleaned out the classrooms.
They tore up the old carpet in 3 portable classrooms.
They then glued down new carpet tiles in all of the rooms.
It was a long day, but it was well worth the effort. The reward was a big envelope full of thank you letters written by the students at Westridge. Here are a couple of thank you letters from the kids in the classes. Mike said this was the best part of the whole experience.
