For a project, I need to have 25 uses for normal yellow post it notes. They can't be ordinary uses, like a bookmark, or to write notes, they have to be things that you wouldn't normally use post it notes for, and they don't have to be practical. I already made a list of 25 things, but I want to see what other people can think of. They don't have to be things that you would actually use them for, it's really just to see what ideas you can come up with. Thanks!

P.S. they can only be made with post it notes, no tape, glue, or other materials.

Well, of course there are Post It mosaics (on windows or anywhere):

Then also:

...flipbooks

...names on kids doors, etc

...structures or art made with tubes (since each sheet can be turned into a tube if adhesive is on the inside...or if on the outside, they can be turned into heart shapes if the center of the other end is creased and partly folded)

...more art like this lamp covering:

And if the adhesive doesn't have to matter, all the other things that "paper" can be used for, like papier mache, paper pulp clay, origami, love letters, etc:

Maybe it might help to understand the *why* of Genesis 1:1 AND 1:2 -- THE GAP THEORY. There is a gap between Genesis 1:1 - God made everything *right-on*. In Genesis 1:2 if the *was* said *became* it would make sense with the rest of the Bible. Satan in the past eons of time sinned in God's sight by saying *he would become like the most high God.* and God said no you won't and so kicked Satan out of heaven. The became then becomes the fire storm that Satan created on earth - the dinosaurs disappeared. Then God starting in Genesis 1:2 and on, recreated the world to last 7,000 years only. The Bible is history and prophecy for this last 7,000 years of this universes existance.

1. Origami

2. Wear them

3. Use them to clean

4. Fill your cup holder in your car with them so when you're driving there's not that extra room for your cup to fall all over the place.

5. Burn them in the fireplace.

1: use as blinds, they stick to windwos well

2: fold multiple times and bend to be used as pojectiles in office warfare

3; i use a small post-it pad to tilt my monitor forward a bit because its easle does not have a tilt function.... stupid monitor...

4: post-its are wonderful for concealing parts of documents when photo copying

5: post-it's work wonderful as blinders when you need to focus on work

6: decoration and drawing on walls using post-its is fun, you can make 8 bit characters on your walls...

7: i use post-its at my parents place to block off buttons on the remotes that my mom does not need to mess with... she still does mess with them though, and then i need to fix what ever she breaks...

8: post-its are perfect little flags for decoration when attached to a pencil... white one for surrender, red ones for war declared, blue for a ceasefire, yellow for temporary ceasefire due to office duties or important visit, and pink for request for treaty meeting... office warfare evolved...

9: can be used as paper stuffing for a office pets cage.

10: when attached to a heater in another office when the heat comes on it makes alot of noise... a nice little harrasment to others... :)

Post-it one of your friends cars, if you put them all over it, its fun but demeaning.
