If you want to try something like this, you can use any HDPE plastic waste. Remember, number "2" in the recycling triangle logo means HPDE plastic. So if you see number 2 logo, you can give it a go.
In this video, I demonstrate how to repurpose plastic waste by creating a miniature horse sculpture. By melting down plastic bottle lids and HDPE plastic waste, I created a block that I then carved and shaped into a unique horse form. While this sculpture may not be as detailed or realistic as some other artworks, it still highlights the beauty and potential of repurposing materials that would otherwise go to waste.
This project serves as a fun and creative way to reduce your environmental impact by repurposing plastic waste. By following along with this tutorial, you can create a unique piece of art while also promoting sustainable practices and reducing waste.
Let's work together to transform plastic waste into art and create something beautiful out of materials that would otherwise go to waste.
Materials I used:
HDPE plastic waste
Toast sandwich machine
Heat resistant gloves
Wooden mold
Dremel hand tool
Handsaw
Acrylic paint
