How to create treasures out of waste

Tweet

Hi you all, lets share some creative ideas on how to use waste material that you'd normally end up trashing out. here is one idea, i'd like to share If you are a collector of thin glass bangles (specially popular in Asian countires like Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Bhutan and sirilanka e.t.c where they are a part of culture)..well no need of trashing out the broken pieces from now onwards. you can simply bend these pieces by holding them in a candle flame for a very short duration, say 3 or 4 seconds, and bend it quickly, make sure u hold both the ends with the help of a cloth glove because u might burn ur hands if the glass heats up too much.( different qualities of glass have different rates of heating) once u've bended up all the bangles in the shape of a petal, just arrange those flowers in the form of a flower, you can glue them together and put them on a stick that could serve as a branch, or you could stick them to a piece of paper and make an abstract drawing, or even greeting cards could be made out of it. It's just a matter of handling with caution and care, and trying to work as neatly as possible, and you can create your own little masterpieces there are plenty of other ideas that i have in mind, but i will give you all a chance to contribute your ideas, and i would contribute some of mine too in the future have fun:)
