Turning Waste into Treasure

I love recycling items specially on my free time. Recycling can help reduce additional waste in our planet and making new products from scrap is fun. Recently, I made this heart-shaped box and this is my participation to @funditian's One Heart Contest.

We are living in a world filled with garbage and there's no doubt about it. Why not show some love and do something good for our mother earth? Here's my finished product. It's made of paper grocery bags. Instead of throwing these brown papers, I turned them into this lovely box. I just cut them into small pieces, glue them together and molded it into the heart-shaped tin can that I reused to keep my sewing kit.

Always remember that no matter how small your efforts are, they're important in making a huge difference, not just to yourself but to the following generations. Let’s take care of our planet; in return it will take good care of us.

Here's another project that I'm currently working on but I will do a separate post about this.
