Since recycling began its course as the ‘green’ alternative there has been a new trend to start re-using rather than just regurgitating waste products into basic resources. The idea is that an item may have another use rather than its original intended purpose.
Here’s a classic example of re-using an item in a different way to create a totally new product rather than turn it into recycled matter.
Imagine using your soft drink bottles as self watering planters. Normally wasted, or at least recycled, the humble pop bottle is given a new lease of life.
Linda takes you through a step by step project on how to turn your bottles into planters that can then raise seedlings, cuttings or even contain small plants.
Using soda bottles is a good idea and you can also make mini greenhouses out of them instead of buying them.
