Recycled plastic cups make great greenhouses for seed starting

April 28, by Stefanie Girard. Leave a Comment

This may sound strange but I have started taking home my plastic and paper cups when I am out at an event or meeting that provided beverages. Why you ask? Well I have started using them to mix concrete and caste bases for little sculptures I make. I can’t quite bring myself buy cups to simply use them once. This is another idea that looks perfect for cups that have been used once and then brought home and repurposed into little seed starting or rooting of clippings to give away. Pop on over to the blog Mama Papa Bubba to read all about using recycled plastic cups to make greenhouses.

Modern patterned recycled cardboard and TP tube sculptures

I have posted other recycled cardboard sculpture crafts but today’s really caught my eye for two reasons. The first is the fun way simple patterns created on the surfaces really made this look modern and fun. The second was using a tp tube as the base. The combo of the ovals and the tp tube just went together nicely. Pop on over to the blog Artful Parent to see more about how to make painted patterned recycled cardboard and TP tube sculptures.
