I totally believe in recycling....and while doing it i like to make gifts and teach my kids how you can make really nice things with things you throw away...save the environment....and save money by making things you can use and gift to others!
Some would say it's cheaper to buy than go through all the effort...perhaps...but you sure wouldn't help the environment!
Here is a clock using recycled items and gifted to a friend.
