Upcycling vs Recycling
Upcycling is a great form of reusing products before they go to a landfill. Reuse is the first and best principle of green living, and upcycling embodies that sentiment. With it, we can move toward a circular economy because there is little wasted when something is made into another. With recycling, there are waste products from melting down materials. WIth upcycling, you can control that waste. Happy upcycling!
Clothing
Clothing waste has become a huge problem for landfills, especially with the rapid trends and fast fashion brands producing low-quality, cheap clothing. One way to fight back against clothing waste is to upcycle worn-out or unwanted clothing. Turn your clothes into new clothes, or something else entirely! All you need is glue, scissors, a needle and thread, and your imagination.
