Rethink Waste Secret #8 ~ “Re purpose”

Re purpose The art of redeploying an item into an alternate use.

RE PURPOSING items that would otherwise become waste is a beneficial way to reduce items ending up in landfill.

I have had successes with RE PURPOSING cotton pillowcases and Doona covers  into Beeswax Wraps. Beeswax wraps are a reusable, food safe alternative to cling film.

Tired T shirts can be cut and woven into funky bath mats to live on forever.

I also use this cutting technique for making plant ties.

A friend of mine REPURPOSES her Laundry Liquid containers into watering cans for the children at Daycare to water the plants and have water play.
