Creative upcycle and downcycle ideas
This is recycled trash bag octopus is so pretty and fun I can’t wait to try making one. Over at Little Stars Learning there is both a photo and video tutorial on how to make these plastic bag octopus decorations. There are also some photos of all of her under the sea creations that coordinate with it. I want to hang mine out side so the breeze with blow the streamers. I also might try popping a solar light in the top?
I love vintage matchbooks and their graphics, they are such a cool little bit of history. Even the concept of a matchbook is dated as there isn’t smoking in public places. So repurposing the packaging format to hold all sorts of tiny things is such a great idea. Pop on over to the blog Reading My Tea Leaves to see all sorts of things you can package in a matchbook and how to make them.
