Plastic Free July
It’s Plastic Free July, and with that, people are looking for ways to reuse, repurpose and recycle their plastic bottles and even old toys. In fact, TheSoul Publishing found that videos about recycling old toys are getting more than 7 million views, and their 5 Minute Crafts Recycle channel is becoming even more popular with 1.1 million followers in just a few weeks.
Looking for ways to repurpose or recycle this month? Here are some ideas from TheSoul Publishing’s 5 Minute Crafts channel:
- Use a plastic bottle to make a gift box. Cut the middles and piece them together for a box perfect for jewelry or small items. (Instructions here)
- Take the top of your soda can and make it into a picture hanger. Some simple glue and your standing only frame becomes wall-hanging! (Instructions here)
- Repurpose a laundry detergent bottle to make your own plant holder. A few simple cuts sand you have the perfect decorative pot. (Instructions here)
- Use the bottom of your celery to replant and grow you own. Just put it in water for a few days, move it to soil and then you’ll have homegrown celery. (Instructions here)
Until Next Time~
