Making a display of recycling process
Updated 8moUpdated 9 months ago
The problem and soulution
I would vendor at craft faires in my local area. At my booth I would talk about how I recycle plastic. The problem was people did not see the picture of how I do it. This was due to plastic recycling being very new in this way and not wide spread yet espesally in my country. The soulution was I make a display of how I do it on a visual scale. This resulted in people getting a visual scale of how I do plastic recycling and I get more sales at craft faires from it.

The Function of it
The left side filled with bottle caps, milk jug laybles and shampoo bottle lables. This shows were you can find the plastics that you use.
The middle will always be the shredded side. This shows that shredding is importain when it comes to recycling
The right side will be the products you make, you could use coaster or key rings. I used the plates I made to show color variants
