Nov 5th, 2017: PET ART

Reuse, repurpose, or recycle, is the mantra of the cool people.
Containers made of made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET or PETE), don’t get reused, Coke doesn’t want them back.
Most places have recycling programs to send them to be shredded and melted for new containers.
You can repurpose them for other things, although they don’t make good Molotov Cocktails.
Veronika Richterová repurposes PET containers into art pieces.

They're fabulous. I am going to try this too

Go for it Sandy, some gentle heat and manual working or compressed air should be fun. Be sure and let us know how it worked out.

Don't worry about the cat, it was long dead when photographed.

That's what distresses me. I like cats. I like them a lot more when they're alive.
