    An easy way to sharpen scissors is to cut through sandpaper with them.

    If you don't want to cut your sandpaper you could put it to good use by sandpapering elephants into greyhounds.

    Sandpaper can be used as a wonderful body/face exfoliator.

    Sandpaper can be made by glueing sand to regular paper.

    You can then place the sandpaper on the ground and stand on it barefoot to recreate that sandy beach feeling.

    The worse thing in the world is getting sand everywhere, and word to the wise, if you're going to pull off the perfect murder, don't do it on the beach, because there'll always be that little bit of sand to trip you up. You may not believe me, but there's a grain of truth to it.

    Wanna file your nails but have no emery boards in the house?

    No problem. Just glue small strips of sand paper to some left over ice lolly sticks.

    Did you have to pay import taxes on the €500 worth of sandpaper you bought in Germany?

    If you combine an old lollypop stick with some sandpaper you have yourself an inexpensive nail file - which is why you never see a carpenter with bad finger nails.

    Thanks, you seem to know alot about sandpaper, it was previously mentioned one can make sandpaper from regular paper and sand, does it have to be plastering sand or building sand?

    Sandpaper can be used to smooth scabs. It gives a good aesthetic for when you're tanning in summer.
