The top # Ways to Reduce Waste

I have been on an upcycling journey for five years now and I must confess that it has been so fulfilling. In 2017 I bought my very first glass bottle cutter after failing at many YouTube video attempts 🙂 Firstly, let me tell you a bit about upcycling. “Upcycling, also known as creative reuse, is the process of transforming by-products, waste materials, useless, or unwanted products into new materials or products perceived to be of greater quality, such as artistic value or environmental value.”

I am have been focusing on upcycling empty glass bottles and transforming them into reusable products of better value such as drinking glasses, flower and decorative vases, lamps, pendant lights, succulent gardens, landscaping among others.

At the moment, am interested in sharing my acquired skills with others through monthly workshops both in person and online eventually.

Some Ways to Reduce glass bottle waste include:

  • Glass Bottle Cutting
  • Glass Bottle Painting
  • Lighting Projects
  • Glass Bottle Drilling for succulent gardens.

Brand Ambassador for BSC Lifestyle Boutique

Meet Ashleigh my beautiful friend and brand ambassador for my small business at http://www.bsclifestyle.com

This is an appreciation post 🙂 I met Ashleigh at a Modelling School and Agency in Harare where we trained well together. We later part ways after all the grooming and etiquette classes as she went back to finish her studies and I to mind my young family. To cut the long story, we stayed in touch and mostly on phone and social media only to meet again during the pandemic. We did some catching up and sharing diverse ideas about life. One day while at brunch we came up with the idea of her representing the Brand BSC Lifestyle Boutique.

She later on proposed a professional photo shoot which made a lot of sense and I had been procrastinating for years (very bad habit but now in the past). There I was feeling motivated and energized to work towards this. It took me less than a month to prepare all the necessary products among other requirements for the photo shoot. You can find most of these on my website www.bsclifestyle.com and also follow her on instagram at https://www.instagram.com/sky__leigh__/

You can see some of my work in the photo above and here below; Turquoise Jewelry, Cowhorn Bangles, Brass and Glass Candle Holders, Glass Candle Sticks, Recycled Glass Wind Chimes, Glass Coffee Cups, Upcycled glass bottles into green Planter, Blue Sapphire Flower Vase, Protea Drinking Glasses, Gold tone 3 in 1 Candle Holder and Candles in many shapes.

Here is what I learnt everyone needs friends and they come in all different forms. Some will be here for the fun, uplift you, encourage you, love you and all that sense of community. Let’s cherish and treasure our relationships. I look forward to more collaborations in this new year 2022.
