Do you have items that are no longer used? Do not throw it away first. Because these items can you recycle into a craft that has artistic value and high selling value.

In addition, indirectly you have a role in reducing waste that became one of the problems in this country if you use the used goods into handicrafts. The question is what used items can be used as handicrafts?

Basically, all used goods we can be a handicraft that has art and sell high tilapia. It depends on our creativity. However, the ideas for treating the used goods are not necessarily of our own. Because at this time a lot of handicraft reference from the used goods on the internet that we can sample.

Used goods used as handicrafts include: patchwork, paper, used cardboard, used bottles, wire, and so forth. Used goods are very much circulated examples that have become handicrafts that we can use as a reference in making crafts. Here are some examples of handicrafts from used goods made from these items, and on this occasion I share my experience working with used wire when I was in college majoring in fine arts.

The human sculpture of the former wire

Instead of being thrown away and left to rust, it would be nice if the used wire is used to make a sleeping lamp with its ornaments. Supporting materials and how to make handicrafts from this used wire was very easy.

Supporting materials and equipment to be prepared such as used wire, pliers, hacksaws. With these materials and equipment, we can make handicrafts from used wire.

The first step is to cut the wire used in accordance with what we want. After the wire is cut, the next step is to string the wire to assemble the deepest frame of the statue to be done, if it is completed then assemble the wire cover to add the impression of the statue becomes more interesting. If all that is done, then live to give light to him. Then the statue of the used wire is finished and can be placed inside the house. Interesting right?

To be able to make a wire sculpture takes a fairly long time. Because although it looks easy, but it is very time consuming and energy draining in wrapping one by one wire to the skeleton bone that has been made before. For me this is becoming more interesting, considering the need for high level of patience and excellent foresight so that the end result will not be impressed at random and reduce the aesthetic value of art of this wire itself.

As a former scout leader who usually wrestle with knots and ropes, I feel lucky because it is not too difficult to understand the bond in stringing wires that turns out in this craft many use the base node.

Apparently if we are able to create and innovate, the waste was able to turn into dollars that can add to our economy. This is very interesting and can be an inspiration for us to start developing talents and abilities and help reduce waste that pollute nature.
