Christmas starts on September: Reuse Recreate Recycle junk this Christmas

in #art6 years ago

Thus, the people here are already decorating. My moms been buying from second hand stores and recreating stuff from things that people throw away. Most of this junk are from other places like US or Japan usually.
Some of these items are either donated or thrown away. Somehow they manage to be collected and resold.
Most items are used but in good condition
And sometimes there are even brand new, just a bit dusty from the trip.
Nonetheless I think theyre cheap and its a good way to lessen trash build up.
Reuse recycle and save the environment.
Our wreath here is decorated with christmas decor my mom got there, she just rearranged them and looks good, repainting too

She found paper craft flowers inside a plastic bag sold there and mom just glued them to branch wreaths she also got from there plus a "noel" sign too.

Candle holders, christmas decor, even some fake plants, animal displays for decoration. Just clean them up and make something good out of it.

Really cool picture frames that people dont want anymore, yea some are chipped or needs a little repainting but no worries, thats quite easy to do.
Wooden clocks too.

Lots of ceramics are there as well.

Then the welcome sign, the fake flowers, and some candles as well.

Save yourself a little money on the holidays by recycling junk and getting artistic. Waste not :)

What do you think? Some of these items may look a bit old but on the other side of the coin, it does all of us good, moneywise and for the environment.

People love Christmas in the Philippines and heres what we call PAROL
Theyre star decorations, some light up but this is just plainly hung.
It represents the bright star which guided the three kings to Christ.
