Transforming Waste Bottles into Beautiful Self Watering Plant Pots

Transforming Waste Bottles into Beautiful Self Watering Plant Pots

Join Disha Trevedi for an exciting activity where you can turn waste bottles into vibrant self - watering plant pots, while discovering the incredible benefits of recycling glass and embracing the power of creativity!

During the activity, we'll guide you through the step-by-step process of upcycling waste bottles into unique plant pots. Using paints, markers, and decorative materials, you'll have the opportunity to express your creativity by personalizing your plant pots so get ready to let your imagination soar!

Once your plant pots are decorated, Disha will guide you in planting small saplings or seeds, symbolizing the beginning of a new cycle and growth. There will also be tips on plant care, including watering, sunlight requirements, and nurturing techniques, to ensure your plant pot thrives and adds beauty to your surroundings. Let's create a greener future together!

Join us for this engaging activity, where recycling meets creativity, and waste transforms into beauty. Together, we'll foster a more sustainable world, one recycled bottle at a time.
