You already know how much you can waste, you see it go down the incinerator or straight out the door in a garbage bag by the load....so how much can you save? or re-use?
There are so many household items that you can re-use, especially if you're a family or even a bunch of roudy housemates.
I had a look at the amount of water bottles I was putting in the recycling bin. I'm a massive fan of cheap bottled water... I love it. But I have thrown out countless bottles out into the recycling bins week after week.
I was sifting through the internet and I don't know why I hadn't have thought of this before however, this site is amazing, Zitta's creations from a PET bottle are simply incredible.
I have all the bits and bobs to make the purse, I just needs to acquire the 20cm zipper strip and I'm set.
I'm actually really excited to have a go at it - I'll post the success as soon as I do it!
So what other things around the house can you recycle? What about that old jar of un-wanted buttons? I mean, what would you do with them? You can't really sew them ALL on something.... or can you? Have a look at this incredible idea!
What other things can we re-use? I'm going to think of different ways to re-use, mend, save items around the house as much as I can. And for a useful purpose! It's just so depressing reading up on the amount of waste that Australians produce alone.
So what about you all? I want to hear what you save, re-use and recycle.
