Wasted School Supplies

The sad part of it is, about half of the paper I got I didn’t even look at after it got passed around the room in school because it didn’t really help me learn or study. But of course I recycled everything I could. The folders and the binders that are trashed of still sitting in my room, maybe I’ll try to doctor them up for more use…?
For next year I’m going to try to get school supplies that are recycled or will be able to be recycled after use (binders). Here is a site to check out some of the products out there, that was just the first site that came up when I googled.

Beer Bottle Goblets!

You just cut the bottom of the bottle off. Then fire the edges that you cut (so you don’t hurt yourself). Next, glue the bottom to the top of the bottle, and fire the places where they connect to insure it’s leak proof. They don’t look half bad and it’s a great way to use a beer bottle again if you’re not recycling it (though I gotta say, you should recycle it). You can actually drink out of this, or use it as a decoration. Did you know that glasses like this are actually sold online!? They’re priced at £12.95 each (in the U.K.) and come in different beer brands. Imagine if you made a bunch of these and sold them as a fundraiser! They are extremely cheap to make so even if you sold it for only $3 each you could make a HUGE profit! Personally, if I saw this being sold, I would get one to give to my brother. He would get an artistic recycled kick out of it.
