After sharing a gelato with Len, I loved the polka dotted cardboard container so much that I washed it out and repurposed it — now it’s home to office supplies.
The terms repurpose, recycle, and upcycle are often used interchangeably:
- REPURPOSE: adapt for use in a different purpose.
- RECYCLE convert (waste) into reusable material. Return (material) to a previous state in a cyclic process. Use again.
- UPCYCLE: reuse (discarded objects or material) in such a way as to create a product of higher quality or value than the original. Give an unwanted or waste product a new or enhanced lease of life.
What have you repurposed, recycled, or upcycled for reuse at your home?
