Plastic Bottle Art

2008 was ushered in with some inspired use of plastic bottles (which they call 'pet-chee' for the PET label), including some cheerful tree flowers found here randomly on the street in POA...



...and some intricate and impressive chandeliers all made from plastic bottles in the famous (at least locally) Natal Luz (Christmas light) celebration in the nearby bizarrely Bavarian tourist town of Gramado:




(the same chandelier while zooming...)



Here's the street scene so you can visualize the whole shabang...



...and two leftover Natal decorations at a psychiatric hospital my mom
has been visiting as part of a film project here...



SO...REDUCE. REUSE. RECYCLE.
AND WHY NOT MAKE SOME ART WHILE YOU'RE AT IT?
