Turn waste into treasure and create unique fashion items

I think what fashion brings to me is always positive side, because it often makes me think about how to connect my interests with daily life. With the continuous development of society, the shortage of energy caused by excessive use and waste, although we are always taught to save resources,, how many people can actually save resources? I think it’s the virtue of frugality that we turn waste products into our own accessories. It saves material, turns waste into treasure, and it’s very unique. You can not only exercise your practical abilities, but also increase your imagination and creativity. Now, I want to share with you two DIY small fashion items. They are very easy to DIY.

The first is to transform the plastic bottle caps into an earring box:

Materials: two plastic bottles, a pair of scissors, a knife, a decoration, and a hot glue gun

△STEP 1:Remove the cap from the bottle

△STEP 2:Cut the plastic bottle to the neck of the bottle

△STEP 3: Trim the body of the bottle until the cap can be covered

△STEP 4: Put another cap on the other side

△STEP 5: Apply the decoration to the bottle cap with a hot glue gun

A tiny Earring box is accomplished

It can be used not only for storing earrings, but also for accessories. It’s cool to hang on a bag or belt.

The second is a coin purse made of old zipper

Materials: an unused zipper and needlework of the same color

△STEP 1 :Unzip the zip

△STEP 2: Half of the zips are folded from one quarter and start sewing the folds to the tail

△STEP 3: Turn down and press at the end of the first sewing, overlap with the other half of the zipper, and continue sewing along the side

△STEP 4: There is one part left after sewing, continue folding this part and sewing along the fold

△STEP 5: zip it up

Many people think that plastic bottle caps, old zippers, etc. are just simple living waste products, but it ’s amazing that those ordinary items can be made into beautiful fashion accessories by beautifying and renovating. And, while making these two DIY items, I found the joy of leaving my phone, which is rare and it also makes sense to rediscover the beauty of life in recycling or as a gift to someone. Do you have any ideas? Do you want to drop your phone and try another stylish DIY?
