4 Upcycled Crafts To Save Your Planet This 2021

Posted on

When it comes to doing crafts, we may often forget this one simple question: How does it affect Mother Nature? Some leftovers from our project may go to waste, which is not green-friendly. It is about time that we focus more on upcycled crafts.

Check out these five examples of upcycled crafts to save your planet this 2020.

  • Coffee-can planters

If you buy your coffee in cans, chances you have the empty cans after the coffee is gone. Instead of leaving them unused, wash them clean before filling them with fertilizers, flower seeds, and some dirt. You get yourself some planters for your small garden.

  • Soda-can pencil case

This is one of the easiest, upcycled crafts to do after the coffee-can planters. Just the same, remove the top lid after you finish drinking. Wash the whole can clean before you put some pencils, pens, and ruler in. You can even decorate the surface with some paper crafts and tie it with a ribbon.
