How To Turn Old Magazines Into a Coiled Paper Basket

[11pooloo]

is decoupage glue the same as modge podge ?

[NancyToday]

cute!

[Angelen]

learn to make an origami basket, and apply glue to that, it's faster and enough to be a waste basket for as long as it's needed.

[ssc3110]

jajajaja como si fuese tan facil

[sandri36]

@ssc3110 Pero si solo se trata de cortar tiras de papel y pegarlas en el bol. Es forrar un bol con papel. No se porque se te hace dificil.

[ducttapestuff12]

do you HAVE to have decapauge

[raycheesy1]

@ducttapestuff12 No, it just makes it last longer.

[violinist881]

cool can I make this out of drinking straws too? I'm going green:D

[akiragondo]

i`ll use my playboys xDD

[SonicXRulz4Eva]

@akiragondo You can get a pleasure by just looking at the basket! #LOL

[TheADHDshinigami]

Do you think this could work with newspaper? Personally, i think that would look nicer.

[sakinehbs]

or go to 99 cents store and buy one.

[xhaleighoverdose]

people. this is for people who DONT want to buy one. so dont say "go and buy one" because thats obvious. geez people.

[silverponylover999]

@xhaleighoverdose I know right? I was just about to say that XD.

[electrogeek77]

@sakinehbs Last time I checked, there hasn't exactly been an abundance of handcrafts at 99 cent stores lately...

[Sesumii]

Optional: Buy your own basket.

[Aran234]

think this is first comment

[NobelNighthawk274]

[MapleSkittles]

@NobelNighthawk274

Er... Those are the beginning steps of making a paper mache pinata.

[ItsJustJasmine]

these things are so cute though :D

[jeishun]

what people don't know about recycling is that its not as efficient as you think it is. Since trashing something is financially easier on waste companies many of the material sent to be recycled end up getting trashed anyway. :/ and recycling is not an infinite process it only prolongs getting something trashed. true story.

[pepene93]

actually, for the vast majority of products, recycling companies make profit from recycling it.

[ItsJustJasmine]

@jeishun oh so don't recycle cuz it doesn't do as much as we think? its something that helps thats all that matters!

[rad4Ri]

FIRST

[WoozyReaper]

Or, You know you could just use the bowl.

And recycle the newspaper.

[chamath1985]

Still man this is eco friendly. Even psychologically you get some entertainment making those stuff by yourself.

[WoozyReaper]

It's more eco friendly to just recycle it.

This is keeping the newspaper just like it was on you table. Just cut up into little pieces. And in the time you've made this you have wasted glue, news paper, and your time.

[pepene93]

eco friendly isnt about not using resoruces. at least not yet. for now, its more about not producing waste.

[ItsJustJasmine]

@pepene93 its about both reuse rething etc etc

[pepene93]

true. but im just saying its probably better to use some glue and whatever and avoid scrapping the paper. and you also avoid buying a bowl. im guessing some ppl that make this r actually gonna use it...

[jeishun]

@ItsJustJasmine No just that recycling is not the all mighty answer to everything. Of course still recycle just know its not the answer. Very little people know about this its important that people know we still need a solution to waste probs.

[ItsJustJasmine]

@jeishun duh its not the onlyyyyyyyyyyy thing to do, i didn't say that. i'm not a fucking economist so i'll leave it to the scientists to come up with that answer... geez

[jeishun]

@ItsJustJasmine Well you're not completely useless.... what you can do is spread the word. Don't be passive, scientist aren't gonna do anything unless public demands it. how are they gonna demand something they dont know the truth about?

[chamath1985]

Err gosh you're talking like we're going to do it big time commercially.

If you don't like it simply stfu wasting your "precious time" on hate comments and appreciate this person's effort to do something out of nothing

[WoozyReaper]

Um, I'm just saying That it's smarter and more Eco-Friendly to Just Recycle Paper and make it into NEW Paper instead of putting in on a bowl and making that bowl smaller.

So you shut the fuck up about hate comments is this your first time on the internet?

Also just to make it clear, I have never recycled one peice of paper or plastic.

[WoozyReaper]

So stop bitching about how I'm wasting my time, you have no control over my time and i can do whatever i want with my time. So stop with the whole It's better to make a fucking bowl out of newspaper instead of recycling it, CAUSE YOU NOT EVEN RECYCLING IT!!! Dumbass.

[GildedOrchid]

@WoozyReaper Sure other than glossy paper, ie the paper that is used to make magazines is not recycleable.

[electrogeek77]

@chamath1985 Exactly. The concept of "fun" seems to be lost on many.

[chamath1985]

@electrogeek77 I mean picture it this way; the majority of youtube videos are criticisms, music and time wasting "I'm The Coolest" geek ego pourige and hippie crap, this is something creative.

[LillyGarrettt]

Finally something pretty good

[PiousPrincess]

wow cool

[hippoyo]

sweet

[1kingconan]

seems like a waste of time. just recycle the magazines.

[BurnDuck]

pretty cool
