There are too many plastic bottles discarded everyday. Time to put another man's trash to good use. Here are some beautiful reuse ideas :)
For each project image, I have included links to tutorials and/or additional information. All of these projects can be done at home and require few additional materials to construct.
Please post your own great plastic reuse bottle projects! Thank you for visiting my blog.

All that is needed to construct this beautiful display is scissors, clear plastic bottles, some sort of punching tool, and string. See the below tutorial for details.
