81 things you can compost!

As a permaculture/green living fan, I couldn't ignore Networx post about composting things. Since it is not a hobby for only extreme gardeners, but also a great way to cut back landfill supplies and improve the ground of plants at home, everyone could start composting the following 81 crazy pieces of waste:
1. Dryer lint
2. “Dust bunnies”
3. The insides of a vacuum bag (just empty the bag into the compost bin)
4. The contents of your dustpan (just use discretion)
5. Coffee grounds
6. Coffee filters
7. Tea bags/loose leaf tea
9. Soy/rice/almond/etc milk
9. Nut shells (but not walnut, which may be toxic to plants)
  1. 10.  Pumpkin/sunflower/sesame seeds (chop them to ensure they won’t grow)
