Trash or Treasure (Vol. 1 Plastic)
Plastic is everywhere around us, from everyday items to the packaging of our food. It’s strange to think how important this relatively new material has become in our lives.

All the techniques shown before you are just the start of a much larger project. It’s up to you to decide what you will make with them.
This way, we can slowly make the world one we can treasure.
