For our website, the three items that are being repurposed are a pair of old pair of jean shorts, a plain pair of black canvas shoes, and a worn out t-shirt. The old pair of shorts will become a new pair of dip-dyed shorts with studs. We will add a unique galaxy print to the black canvas shoes, and the t-shirt will become a fashionable scarf. The main logo of our website is a clothes hanger with a recycle sign circling around it. It represents our overall idea of the website; reusing clothes. The main color is green and the hex code is #14c93b. An original tagline is "your clothes express yourself." Using the magic pen to crop the house was hard. The paint bucket was very helpful.

A fun fact about recycling is that 75% of waste is recyclable, but we only recycle about 30% of it. Also, over 87% of Americans have access to curbside or drop-off paper recycling programs. Lastly, if every American recycled just one-tenth of their newspaper, we could save around 25 million trees each year. The idea of reusing old books into shelves stands out to me the most in a good way. I think that is a very creative idea and it also looks really cool. I think the idea of reusing old plastic bottles and turning them into a broom stands out to me the most in a bad way. I think it is a unique idea, but it would not work very well. A possession I might select to repurpose is an old pair of jeans. I could cut them into shorts, bleach them, and then dip dye them two different colors. I could also add studs to the pockets. |
