Tired of unwanted birthday gifts every year? Why not use your special day as a way to raise money for your favorite charity? Facebook's "birthday fundraiser" feature lets you host a fundraiser with your friends and followers. On your birthday, it'll announce a special fundraiser for your chosen charity to celebrate your day. Billions of dollars have been raised for nonprofits like the ASPCA and American Cancer Society, and it's easy to set up. You can even customize the post with a video to inspire your friends to give.

One of the biggest contributors to landfill waste is used furniture, and a lot of it is cheaply made, low-priced stuff that was not designed to last. But what do you do if you want quality furniture and you're on a budget? New furniture resell sites offer high-end, lightly used furniture at a fraction of the price. One resell site, Kaiyo.com, lists used furniture that's refurbished and cleaned, sold at a discount and delivered to your home. Since they started, over 1.5 million pounds of furniture have already been diverted from landfills.

Ever wonder what to do with the shells of walnuts, pecans and pistachios? One idea is to save the shells and scatter them as beneficial mulch in the garden. If there is any residual salt on the shells, they will help deter slugs from attacking your plants. One other idea is to use them for indoor houseplants. Soak them in water first to remove any salt, then line the bottom of a planter with shells and fill with soil. It will help provide drainage for the plant and eventually will decompose into beneficial mulch.
