Adults at Queens Library at Steinway were invited to create keepsake containers using a recycled plastic flower pot. An old CD was used to make a lid for the container. Adults used glitter pens, scrap paper, plastic flowers and sequins to decorate their boxes.
DID YOU KNOW: Although recycling is the most common method of plastic waste pollution prevention, less than 1 percent of all plastic products are recycled in the U.S. In fact, Americans throw away 25 MILLION plastic beverage bottles every hour!
