Crafters use bread tags to wind spare threads and yarns on. Especially helpful for embroiderers and colorwork knitters.

I can vouch for this use as a knitter. I wind extra long tails to pieces of work on these tabs.

I have also used them as markers for coutning stitched and to keep yarn on a needle.

I remember using them in Kindergarden. We would count out 100 of them and then make them into different size piles (ie, 10s 20s 2s, 5s, etc.)

Poker chips!

I’m not sure how to reuse them, but I do know that they are color coded by day of the week of when the bread is delivered to the store.

You can remember that the colors in alphabetical order…

Blue = Monday
Green = Tuesday
Red = Wednesday
White = Thursday
Yellow = Friday

Guitar picks?

put some in an oatmeal container (in the u.s. they are cylindrical and made of cardboard)or the hollow cardboard bit from the end of wrapping paper, tape off the ends, and decorate the outside. voila– lovely noisemaker to send your nieces and nephews home with.

Martha Stewart said to write on them and attach to electrical cords, computer wires… so you would know what the wire was for. I’v tried it works good.

i keep a couple by the sink to scrape off hard cooked on bits of gunk on my dishes

You can also use them as little scrapers for getting gunk off of your stovetop. Perfect for me enameled stove.

Please break them before discarding so they won’t get caught on a bird beak or rodent foot!

I use them to seal plastic bags of food that I put in my freezer. That is very much the original use, but it means I almost never throw them away.

Put on the ends of rolls of parcel tape etc, you will never lose the end again

Good to replace board game items.. such as when you use counters etc?

Use them to label your electrical cords for your computer, TV/audio/etc. Saves tracing the wires back to the source.

A bread clip will hold a pair of socks together in the wash
These make excellent bookmarks. Just clip a few pages together.
Students, or young girls can paint these and use them as funky earrings
Keep rubber bands inside the clip bit of the tags. It stops them getting all over the drawer.
Spray paint these silver, gold, or green and use to hang Christmas tree lights
Dry pantyhose, stockings, hose, etc on a thin wire coat hanger. Simply attach them to the hanger with old bread bag clips.

I’m not sure you’re thinking of the tags because some of your suggestions don’t make sense

I love using them on cards or collages. It’s fun to find one with someones birthday and attach it to the ribbon on their gift. You can also apply glue, cover in patterned paper, and then cut around with exacto knife for an adorable tag. I’m sure they would be cute covered in glitter as well.

Use them as stitch markers. I use them all the time when crocheting. I just hook one of the ends on the stitch and keep on going. Use different colors for increases and decreases.

i use them for guitar picks & to hold (& mark) the end of a ball of yarn/string)

i made a lightweight picture frame out of reclaimed materials, using bread clips on the back as picture hangers. you have to glue a bit of cardboard to them so they stand away from the surface of the frame back and the ‘keyhole’ cut-out in the clip can sit on thumb tacks pushed into the wall. can you dig it?

YES! please be sure to break them in half when throwing out, so little animal feet don’t get caught!!!!
