The original dining chair is discolored and full of scratches (hence the seat cover), so for the other chairs, I took the backrest apart and used them as a cat shelf/perch]]> 2021-04-22 04:36:48 UTC https://padlet.com/dianatanlim/3g4q1g47i5u9mz5l/wish/1445597780 https://padlet.com/dianatanlim/3g4q1g47i5u9mz5l/wish/1445600215 Used insulin injections should be properly disposed instead of putting it away with other waste. This jar is big enough to store a lot and ensure garbage collectors will not be harmed.

Since the original bottle had the product label printed directly on the bottle, I had to paint the whole bottle.

So, I turned them into "yarn" and made myself my own hook/pen container out of 3 delivery bags.
I have a TikTok tutorial on how to do this as well. https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSJkTtbnm/ (Turning them into yarn, pattern I used not included hehe)]]> 2021-04-22 05:36:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dianatanlim/3g4q1g47i5u9mz5l/wish/1445726421 https://padlet.com/dianatanlim/3g4q1g47i5u9mz5l/wish/1445787571 I have a lot of Mineral Water Bottles for my twin's formula.

We also turned Coca-Cola bottles as pot for our hanging plants. And to hang the bottles, we used the discarded wires of PLDT which was struck down by the typhoon last November.
