Thanks for all the repostings of this image! It's been on Stir, Squidoo, GrowingGreenFamily, and more.

You can get this bag from Zazzle as item 149911671300626787 from Populational.

Reuses a former Finast / Tops grocery store. Tops closed here in 2005 (a year before Tops closed all Ohio stores). Then this was Stein Mart (closed 2012). Earth Fare opened here in 2013. This store was DEAD when I visited but was nice inside.

A pile of used coffee grounds on a blue plate (they don't look much like coffe grounds really, but trust me, they are :) )

We decided early on in the build that we would try to reuse or recycle as much as we could. With many of our friends here developing properties we decided to put out an appeal for surplus materials that would otherwise have been discarded. As a result we've managed to collect over half the tiles we need. A big thank you to Dave Golding and Dave & Fiona. Tesselating them together will be a challenge but it will be very satisfying if we succeed.

A big thanks to another friend, Maja, for helping us prevent this iron gate from going into landfill

This entrance was once used as a back entrance for when the front parking lot filled up. Today, there is no front entrance into the store.

 

This store was previously Mancuso's then Mazzulo's Food Centre before becoming Marc's in 1994.

Crochet pattern for a reusable (and eco-friendly) swiffer cover. Use the textured side for the dry mop and then reverse it to use the other side to wet mop.

From an Apartment Therapy house tour. Created using a drum stool, two layers of plywood and wood stain. Great DIY or greatest DIY? Can't decide.

On a packet of disposable nappies.

sewed slippers from old jeans

These are photos of my entry for the Singer and Craft Magazine "Sewing with Nature" contest.

 

I planned this skirt around the idea of re-using scraps from older projects (mostly felted wool twills). The main red fabric is a dead stock piece of yardage that had some damage I had to work around. Part of this was fulfilling the idea of "sewing with nature" by making the skirt green (reusing what may have otherwise been wasted materials) as well as using mostly nature fiber (since most of the fabric is wool, and the trimming is cotton).

 

My design features spotted toadstools, happy hedgehogs, clovers and white polka dots. I wanted to have a woodland story book feel to the final piece with out following a specific fairytale.

 

I used my Singer CG 500C sewing machine for the majority of the sewing, creating an outline and facial details on my 3 hedgehogs using a dense satin and narrow satin stitch. The rest of my appliques where outlined in a wide button hole stitch to imitate a hand sewn blanket stitch, to add to the story book feel.

 

The finished piece has the flare of two of my favorite styles: Japanese "zakka" crafts (zakka refering to "this and that" made from scraps) and the Japanese EGL sweet style.

 

I look forward to wearing this skirt, and I hope you all enjoy seeing my sewing machine art!

 

Thanks!

Traded to muddledmind. ATC with hand-made Japanese paper doll.

 

Materials: Background (piece of reused card); tower image from muddledmind (Thanks!), colored with watercolor pencil and glitter pen; kimono (origami paper); obi (paperscrap), tied with viscose string; hair decor (nail art sticker).

Upgraded boxes like this, can be reused many times because of the protective hardware. The handles and recessed linklocks help the end user handle the shipment with ease.

I've been doing a lot of egg crafts for this Easter holiday. This batch of eggs are covered in the tissue papers which Abi at Taylor & Florence used for my dolly dress purchases. I've held on to these tissues for a couple of years now and am so glad I did. I just love how these turned out!

I wanted to do something different and tried a tutorial by Lynne Tyler.

What I'd assume is a former NYCRR code pole above the tunnel/ROW at Breakneck Ridge, now serves as a trail marker for the trail. Some insulators still remain on the pole as well.

In an attempt to save money and resources graygoosie and I walked to the store to refill our water bottles.

Maholo for reusing!

A former public toilet, now a cafe. I tried it - it was good.

“One Star-Raker takes off as another undergoes airport servicing. With its landing gear extended, Star-Raker ground clearance would have been 1.52 meters (five feet).”

 

On the landed Star-Raker, note that the door(s) of the main landing gear is/are closed…with the landing gear strut apparently extending through a hole…in the closed door. Interesting, I’d like to see that in operation.

Note also the LAX-like airport.

Specifically, within the above site’s discussion thread, contributed by user “ozmosis”, 18 April 2011, the image is Figure 2, captioned “Multiple Launch”.

That, and other extracts are from Rockwell International presentation/paper SSD 79-0082, entitled “STAR-RAKER: AN AIRBREATHER/ROCKET-POWERED, HORIZONTAL TAKEOFF TRIDELTA FLYING WING, SINGLE-STAGE-TO-ORBIT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM” by: David A. Reed, Jr., Hideo Ikawa & Jonas A. Sadunas. The paper was presented at the AIAA Conference on Advanced Technology for Future Space Systems, at Hampton Virginia, May 8-11, 1979.

 

Since it’s so damned cool, articles & reproductions of this (and other) Star-Raker images abound online.

As such, it’s particularly gratifying to have come across this & scan it at a glorious 1200 dpi. That, and to have been able to identify the talented artist of this & many other gorgeous works - North American Rockwell/Rockwell International artist Manuel E. Alvarez.

Yay me.

Sakai-shi, Osaka pref. Japan

Taken from my former apartment home in Baltimore.

since I have been back in Georgia, I have been quite amazed by the very decentralized and non-organized efforts to recycle and reuse. There is much less trash then before, and partially that is because of the city hall's efforts, but a lot of it is due to the poverty. Poverty is not a laughing matter and all of those people deserve a better life. But it's intriguing how bottles get recycled and reused. And, not just bottles, anything that can be reused, is reused. People dig through garbage looking for bottles, men with carts walk around looking for empty bottles. This man was collecting aluminum cans and flattening them. I am not sure what he needed them for, but him doing that, is probably better than those cans being in the garbage.

 

On the other note, I remember around Christmas time, one of the Russian TV channels ran an ad for the "most civilized" vessel, aluminum can. I remember hearing that Germany banned aluminum cans as they are supposedly an environmental desaster... It's funny how civilization works...

The bird feeders I had always let the food get wet, so I recycled an old water fountain belonging to Max, and fashioned a way to hold a tray of food inside. It took the robin about half a day to work it out, and the tits about two days. But it works, the small birds can eat their fill of the now-dry food, and the larger birds ignore it... maybe something to do with the glass butterfly ornament I have fastened on top... it wobbles in the breeze and stops them from landing on it.

Apparently the top phrase is in the Swahili language of south-eastern Africa & the English translation is accurate!
