For 120 pictures in 2020 #111 "Upcycled", This garden ornament is made from recycled scrap metal. It is fairly old and in desperate need of repainting, but it still stands ready to remove garden pests from our plants (this is an aloe vera our neighbor gave us - still need to make a proper garden plot for it).
in 2019 I bought a pair of jeans - so comfortable- made of plastic bottle. I kept the tag because I found it was extraordinary to recycle this way ! The jeans are made in Bangladesh .
J'ai achete une paire de jeans fait de bouteilles recyclées !!! Fabriqué au Bangladesh !!!
So I was out running errands and spotted this! If I was a true recycler, I would have scooped it up to reuse- right?

For the MM theme of arrow for 5/27 (Memorial Day)….. I think I’m going with this SOOC shot just because it’s simple and blue and sparkly and advocates recycling.
Size verification - (later) the whole thing including the blue background is approximately 1.8cm… see the first comment box in a little bit
….💙⬆️ HMM ⬆️💙
Btb, I am sorely tempted to lighten this up but that takes it out of the SOOC realm!

Thank you for visiting, and for your kind comments and faves. They are greatly appreciated! :)
New Jersey’s fifteen-mile-long Rahway Valley was another short line that took advantage of the ICC incentive per diem boxcar rates of the late 1970’s. By the mid-1980’s, the rules were again changed, and many of the IPD owners were stuck with cars that were not being used. For some reason, the Lake Erie Franklin & Clarion picked up some of the RV cars, patched them, and put them in service, as seen here at East Penn Junction, Pennsylvania.
Not great ideas for Smiling on Saturday, just a modest pot-holder made by me recycling an old shirt of my husband, an easy work thanks to the chequered design ;-)

This is one of several throw pillows that i made using old t-shirts. I made them a few years ago, as Chrisrmas gifts for relatives. This is the only one that i saved.

Happy Bench Monday...
on average 8 million tones of plastic finds it's way into the ocean each year and it never goes away, it breaks down eventually, but even then the pellets that it becomes is in turn eaten by the marine life. We need to do more than recycle, we need to stop using plastic containers and being a throw away society.
Give it some thought, don't put your lunch in a baggie, put it in a glass container. Bring a thermos of water, not a bottle, and buy beer in bottles, not cans.... :-) (due to the plastic thingy that binds them)
dashing to work now, blow it up and check out the beautiful and awful mural.
When I visited Leigh Woods two weeks ago, this little family of mushrooms were busily devouring a fallen tree
A shot I had never even bothered to process before, let alone upload anywhere. However, as this is now an unrepeatable scene, I thought I would resurrect this from my scrap folder. Here we see 86622 leading 86609 as they work 4L92 Trafford Park-Felixstowe, Barby Nortoft, 28th April 2008

Looking at the clean white paint of the wall behind, and contrasting that to the ubiquituous mouldy walls elsewhere, I surmised that this paint must be mould-proof.
