Hello everyone! We use disposable cups once and throw them away. This generates a lot of pollution, which harms our planet. There are many ways to help it and among them is to make crafts with recycled material. So this time I will show you how to give a second life and usefulness to plastic cups with a craft. I will show you how to make a wastebasket with recycled cups.

Material:

  • Recycled cups
  • Cardboard in the color of your choice
  • Color palette
  • Glue
  • Adhesive tape

Step 1: Take a palette and cut it so that one side is longer than the other. If the edges are left with imperfections when we chop it we file it.

Step 2: We glue the pallets in this way. This shape will allow our garbage can to open and close by itself.

Step 3: After we wash and dry the glasses well. We will take one of them and on the bottom we will mark with a marker the part we are going to cut out.

It's adorable and the best part is that we disassemble it and throw away the trash and reassemble! It's very easy to store and transport!
