I'm back here, trying to participate again in a great contest that inspires a lot of people. On this occasion I also want to say hello to my best friend @enveng. Hello my dear friend, may god bless you🤗😘

I will show you a project DIY that I made by myself about using things that are no longer used. The item I made is artificial flowers from used plastic bags.

As we know that plastic is the oldest and most difficult material to decompose naturally by decomposers, as a result, the use of plastic bags becomes a problem for the environment. So that the use of plastic bags should use the principle of reuse and reduce

On the basis of the above, I also chose to reuse used plastic bags into objects of aesthetic value.

Tools and materials used

• used plastic bags in various colors
• scissor
• used bottles as flower vases
• wire
