My latest in crafting with trash!

Theresa111 Wow Cindy you are so very clever. This bag makes me want to grab suntan oil, beach towel and head for the beach.
They said on a news report that there is a huge island of plastic floating in the Pacific. they should bring it on shore and recycle it into wind turbines or clever things like you make. Recycling is very important. You wow me! :-) -
I love my recycled apple jug that I made into a garden watering container. Full details here. http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2010/07/05/recyc
3 people like this.timethief Yay! I have done the same Cindy. I reuse and recycle everything. Too bad others don't so we can kick the petro chemical addiction faster.
Theresa111 Go see ... go see!

2 people like this.timethief That's such a cool design. It would be great for shopping.

I made my own homemade hummingbird food. They love it and here are the details http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2010/06/12/homemade-hummingbir
2 people like this.AngieAlaniz That's awesome. Watching hummingbirds can be fun and relaxing.
Theresa111 Cindy you are so smart and I like that in a person. Hummingbirds are such a faery like bird. Sort of like the beautiful bumblebee but very very quick. their colors are varied and this birdseed made me smile for the first time today. Thanks for cheering me up. I usually am but this morning was different. Cheers! :-)

I've been getting a Malware site attack message since yesterday when I try to go to BlogCatalog.
Is anyone else getting this warning? I've sent a message to the webmaster but no response yet.
Reposted by 1 person.RecycleCindy I'm still getting the warning this morning. I am using a current version of Malware so maybe its more sensitive?
Theresa111 Everything is fine when I visit. Oh, I see you wrote this 15 hours ago. :)

@catwalkthreads - Just saw your profile and visited your blog. So glad to find another person who is interested in recycled materials.

Here is the final product and link to the free pattern and picture tutorial should anyone want to make this recycled bag. http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2010/05/01/vcr-tape-designer-bag/
2 people like this.legbamel That is so cool. I have about a hundred of the stupid things that I hate to throw away--do you need some more? :)
RecycleCindy @Theresa111 - I sold it for $30. @Leghamel - I have so many tapes and people are always wanting to give me more. Thanks for the offer though.

I have been trying to start my garden from seeds and it's not working very well. I think I need...
a light over the pots. It doesn't help that it's been raining for 4 straight days. My pots aren't getting enough sunlight. Any tips?
2 people like this.WAYLANDCOOK I put mine in paper coffe cups saved from hubbys work. Took two white metal bathroom racks (the three shelf type) and turned them upside down. The lip on the shelves holds the pots better. Put them out side and covered it with plastic (the clear kind in a roll) I uncover them on warm non rainy days and cover them and weight the cover down with a brick on rain cool days. I am doing much better than starting them in the house like in years past. the beautiful thing about it is it is all recycled parts.
RecycleCindy Great information. That was very helpful as I have heard that the heat is really the key factor in promoting the growth of seedlings.

Wishing everyone a wonderful and green Earth Day!
1 person likes this.tonyberkman did you ride you bike to work?
RecycleCindy No I didn't. I live 22 miles from my day job. But I recycled a bunch of bread bags today into a reusable tote so hopefully I helped out my carbon footprint...

Are you doing an Earth Day post? I just put up mine with a countdown clock for Earth Day. http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2010/04/20/earth-day
1 person likes this.timethief I have published an Earth Day post as well. My theme is making a commitment to improve your food choices and to buy food produced in ways that protect the environment and your health.
PetLvr I'm just going to call it a Tim Horton Day and bring my travel mug instead of buying a cup (since, the Rrrrrroll up the Rrrrrrrim contest has ended anyway). Yeah .. I know. Baby steps.
