It “swims” in the water, but it no longer pollutes! That's the nice idea when we use waste to craft with.

Here “swim” shampoo bottles. There are already other alternatives to shampoo these days, such as so-called soap bars. That is a nice addition to reducing waste.

But there are still plenty of these types of bottles in circulation. Is your bottle white and can remove the label? Then you can edit it with markers, such as childminder Ineke van der Linde here that did. If your bottle is transparent, you can make it white with paint. Ineke used a spray can that she still had from the Action.


Children learn about waste, what it was used for and what happens afterwards. The step of discarding is skipped and it creates something new with it.
