Recycling Household Bottles: Part 3

Jump right in.

BOTTLES WITH SPRAY TOPS
Use as-is or decorate for a more personalized touch.

Spritzer of all trades

Paint (watercolors work best).
Water – styling hair, watering plants, de-sanding at the beach – especially feet.
Watering or feeding potted plants, garden.
Cleaning products – homemade products, keep a spare in the car or other rooms, spot cleaner for clothing (Spit, gentle handsoap and a little friction are wonderful at getting stains out of clothes! It’s gross but it works).
Bug repellant. Check out some natural bug repellants.
Perfume, cologne, air freshener.

CUT OR ALTERED BOTTLES:

Be careful cutting! This plastic can be nasty when not cut with the right tools.

BOTTLE CAPS:

Pierce and string as outdoor holiday decorations. Secure tightly. ‘Tis never the season to be a litter bug.
Prop up your laptop to un-trap heat and ease up on the fan. Attach rubber or felt to prevent scratching the table or computer.
Stampers – glue on foam letters or shapes. You could even cut your own foam designs!
Fridge magnets -attach magnets, add shapes, words, photos, clippings, pom poms, anything!
Sail boats. Cut a plastic sail, attach it to a straw/coffee stirrer, poke through cap hole. The Pantene wide caps with gold stripes make really classy bath toys! Too bad Pantene tests on animals.
