OUR FAVOURITE HALLOWEEN RECYCLE CRAFTS - Rowdy Kind

OUR FAVOURITE HALLOWEEN RECYCLE CRAFTS

We invited Kirsten, owner of THE ECO NEWS to the blog to share her favourite Halloween Recycle Crafts - Enjoy!  
______________________

Reusing items from our recycling bin is very important (and fun!), it means that the use of the item is stopping it going back into land fill. Here at The Eco News we think its best to reuse materials whenever and wherever you can, and prepping for Halloween is no exception.  

Try making your own decorations this Halloween!

Tissue Ghosts

The great thing about these ghosts, is the tissue is still usable after you are finished!
