Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure
If I hadn’t said what this was made of would you have guessed? I certainly had no idea what is was. It never ceases to amaze me how talented people can be when they transform a simple bit of avocado packaging into beautiful decor. This pieces has had color added to it but pop on over to the blog Design Milk to see more lighting made with the recycled packaging used naturally.
These upcycled drinking glasses are such a fun and meaningful addition to my kitchen! I originally bought them because I’m trying to make more eco-conscious choices, but they’ve turned out to be so much more than just “sustainable.” They’re genuinely beautiful—each one is slightly different, which just adds to their charm. You can really tell they’ve been made from repurposed bottles (in the best way), and that story makes them a great conversation piece when guests are over.
They’re surprisingly sturdy too—not flimsy or thin like I half-expected. I’ve been using them daily for everything from iced coffee to juice, and they wash up really well without clouding or scratching.
Honestly, it feels good to drink from something that’s not only stylish but also has a positive impact. If you’re looking for a gift with meaning or just want to treat yourself while treading a little lighter on the planet, these are a win. They also have a frosted version too.
