Origami paint chips into business card cases

Great tip from designverb: don't toss all those paint chips you picked up for renovation.  With a little cutting and even less double-sided tape, you can fold them up into great business card holders.  If you've got as many professional hats as I do you may need different card cases depending on the occasion, so this makes them stand apart easily - not to mention you don't mind so much when they inevitably get scuffed up.  (Also if somebody nicks them, you can just pop into a paint store and pick up the materials for a new one.)  [GT]
