At this time, landfills are becoming more completed and any anything we can do to help with recycling made a difference. A great way to recycle is to the House of handicrafts with things that you would normally throw.
Before throwing something further, think to yourself: This allows in a craft project? Even if you do not plan to use it immediately, or an idea does not come to mind immediately, always save if you think that it could be reused. Keep a box of some points recycled with your craft supplies, so if you find a project you have already the necessary hand element.
It is much easier to come with a trade if you have ideas on what can be done. But always be creative and try to find new ideas too! Here are some ideas to get you started.
Cleaned with Soup cans or vegetables cans can be used for a variety of crafts. If you are filled with water and allow them to freeze in the freezer, you can punch holes in the side of boxes with a hammer and nails (the ice inside retains the structure and prevents the CAD of sinking). The holes can be drilled to form a design. Outside of the can may be painted and when tea light, are the beautiful luminaries. These can be onto a patio, aligned along the aisle for a party or used inside as beautiful decorations.
Soup can lids can be painted or decorated using cutting and transformed in magnets for the fridge or Christmas ornaments. Photos can be applied using cutting too, and they can be transformed into a mobile family tree.
Rolls of empty toilet paper and paper towels rolls can be used for a variety of crafts, much suitable projects for children. Try to make a pencil Cup holder by gluing three tubes of toilet together vertically and paste them on a solid foundation of cardboard. Empty paper towel rolls, cut in sections of an inch can be transformed into napkin rings. Enough to paint the and glue on sets, such as shells or other embellishments.
Foam plates that come in the framework of many types of meat to grocery store also can be saved and reused for many projects of different boats. They are also large trays to mix paints.
Coffee cans could be made in containers of pretty by simply decorating the outside of their. Children will them covering construction paper and of attaching a foam forms on the outside. Adults can enjoy the cans of decoration by cutting to decorate them. You can have boxes correspond to the décor of any room in your House and then to use these handy containers in your bathroom to take supplies of hair, in the garage to take tools or in the kitchen to the spatulas and spoons... the possibilities are almost unlimited. Coffee cans could also be transformed into beautiful cabins which work very well.
Vacuum milk and cream containers are interesting for some crafts for children, where they can be decorated to look like animals, like a duck or chicks. Old tennis balls can be transformed into puppets, by slicing a slit by the side of the ball to become a mouth. And, of course, there is always the puppet of sock monkey, very useful for a sock who has lost his partner!
Cardboard is used in many craft projects and should always be saved. It serves as a good surface for the paint or the development of projects to protect your work surface. Empty egg cartons can be transformed into small animals or a bouquet of flower of carton of eggs.
I never take in cute boxes of mint or nice glass bottles. They can be decorated by cutting, Nice paper (such as the decorative towels or tissue paper) as bottles of SOAP or case of the pill for your handbag. People love home made gifts.
Pots can be used to make vases pretty candle. Try to fill a jar with sand and add some shells and place a votive candle in the middle. It is a cornerstone of the fast time for your table. Or use the jars to be to fill with the ingredients dry cookie. It is a perfect gift to give a host or hostess at a party. Just cover the lid of the jar with some lovely fabric and a bow, and he is willing to give.
Enjoy your search on the Internet for other fun ways to reuse things you would normally throw. You will feel good to help the environment and make cheap gifts!
