Nowadays I don't need to emphasize the importance of being green or environmentally aware. Under the recycling label I've been posting ideas for recycling crafts. They involve using discarded boxes, plastic bottles, old newspapers, bottle caps, cartons, toilet paper rolls, etc to create art, decorations or just homemade toys. You won't believe what amazing things can be made out of garbage!
