* Trash to treasures: Transform an old glass mayonnaise jar into a stunning Vine Vase, a plastic jug into an adorable Piggy Bank, egg cartons into a fish mobile, juice cans into a useful Desk Set.
 
* Helps for the Earth includes making your own Cloth Napkins, Recycling Bins, Compost Holder, and Inspiration Box.
