Home Decor Tuesday: Green Crafting

Posted by Christine on February 2nd, 2010 at 10:59am

Decorating your home doesn’t have to be as expensive as you think. Not only can you make your decorations by getting crafty, but you can also make these decorations out of recycled materials. Don’t throw out everything you think is considered garbage. Go green and craft with your old, used or “garbage” materials.

CD Case Picture Frame- Turn a CD case into a neat-looking picture frame. This hanging picture frame can help decorate any room. Use some old buttons to add a little embellishment and you’re good to go. This is great for green crafting.

Water Fountain- Using old records you have lying around the house you can make this cool water fountain to decorate your living room or kitchen. This is a simple craft you will love making.

Plastic Bottle Lid Art- This is one of my favorite green crafts. Plastic bottle lids can be turned into a brilliant piece of artwork. Who would have thought your drinking bottle would help decorate your dining room.

Recycled Yogurt Cup Bud Vase- Add some flowers to this vase and you can present it in any room. Once your kids are done drinking their yogurt drink you can wash out the bottle and make this fun bud vase.
