Adaptive Reuse
View allAll Photos Tagged reusing
Whenever we go grocery shopping, I find that I look at the packaging our food comes in as a possible photographic subject. One afternoon my husband came home with a large bag of tangerines. I enjoy that fruit, yet the bag holding the orange orbs made me especially happy.
What do you do with an old copper bowl that has a hole in it? Some people might fix the hole.
Or, you can make the hole bigger and turn it into a small sink.

Love the guys hat in this previously unpublished shot from February 2018 - No. 4201 uploaded to my 'Black and White Streets' album. Enjoy!

For Macro Mondays: wrapping
We’re very into reusable bags and containers for/as wrapping alternatives. . The idea here is that the giver puts a gift card in this container and the recipient then has to dig through the slime to get the card!! How fun is that for some kid?
The very pretty and sparkly navy blue Galaxy Slime is all gone because the jar leaked, but I kept the six-sided die that was inside, at the bottom. Love that one if the sides was HMM…. Will put a collage up later of the six sides, including the one that will likely be my MM posting for 12/12
Btb, this circular cover is just a tad under two and a half inches in diameter. Size verification tomorrow, if needed.
Have/had another reusable bag as an option for today too. And of course it is blue and white!

My wonderful SIL created gift bags this year and mailed them early with requests to “open” them!! They are sewn from quilt squares and the back side is red felt— isn’t she clever? The next picture in the photostream shows some of the things that were in the bag!

for "Looking close... on Friday!" theme: reusable or recycled
plastic pots can be used multiple times for planting/repotting flowers, they are durable and easy to use, maybe not very pretty but as an insert for a ceramic pot they are perfect
A fence I used once before. I use it again to christen a new lens, and because the fence pickings ain't so good in our neighborhood. Is anyone running fence tours?
HFF to all: Looking forward to seeing everyone's handiwork.
Beautifully shaped jam jars are saved and reused for homemade jam or jelly.

Have a nice Friday and a good start into the weekend. 🌸
Many, many thanks for all your views, faves and comments.
This is the Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge located in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Many years ago it was repurposed from a Rail Bridge to a walking bridge. In order to visit a family member, we drove from Digby, N.S. to Fredericton N.B.. We had reserved the 4:30pm Ferry but at 3:pm, we received an email stating the Ferry had been cancelled, and in fact never left Fredericton. Bastards!
We kept our cool and decided to make the 6.5 hour drive. We did however, enjoy the scenery along the way. My compliments to those responsible for designing the highway system in Nova Scotia. Other Provinces could learn from those engineers, and how to move traffic both effectively and quickly.
Seems right to put this out early for Earth Day 2018, with the lime light very much on cutting down the amount of plastic waste spilling into our fragile environment.
HMM
As individuals we need to stop using plastic that is single use, and manufacturers must stop producing the vast majority of it.

My DD was painting outside and used a plastic mini quiches container as a mixing pallet. It was left outside and various bugs wandered in and got stuck. The orange paint pot was the most popular…..
Anyhow I used my cloning skills in the app Retouch and made it prettier!! Will put the buggy original in the first comment box in a bit
Everyday I remove the card from my camera and dump the photos on my computer, then put the card back into the camera for next day. So far just once did I pull out the camera to get the red flash of no card. The reusable card is also on my faux Autumn leaf that gets used each year for accent on mantel.
Because I freeze half a loaf, these bags are certainly reusable.
PS: Other bread brands are available.
It takes nearly one hour of walking to reach this wreckage of a DC-3 at the black beach of Sólheimasandur. However, for a special wedding photo, this effort seems to be acceptable.

I was pleased to find that the Northern Flickers were going to reuse the nest they built last year. They appear to be more comfortable with my presence than last year, so I'm looking forward to getting some more fun photos here.
I'm fairly sure when I took this shot, the eggs were already laid, for after twenty minutes of quiet waiting, this male's head popped out and stayed out until the missus arrived. Then with a quiet chortle of greeting, they quickly swapped spots. The male flew out before the female landed under the nest.
When I checked on the nest yesterday, I was pleased to hear that the chicks had hatched. When a parent returned and entered the nest hole, the tiniest of chicks squeakings could be heard...begging for first dibs on feeding.
This will be my last upload for awhile...again..., as I'm behind on a great many things...including writing an article for a local magazine. More on that to come. So, until next time, enjoy your week/weekend and thank you so much for all your support, faves and comments. They are always appreciated!
