This Plastic Alligator Cleans Florida Beaches!


Fun green and Eco friendly project! 

It's the clever idea from Artist Donald Gialanella and his first time participating with it at the Clearwater Beach festival. He’s responsible for bringing one of his unfinished “Allie-Gator” with him for guests to enjoy and even participate in.

He has done similar projects at other Beaches, such as Fort Myers, Florida.

How to Recycle Pumpkins After the Holidays

Halloween and Thanksgiving are over, what are the best ideas on Earth for recycling pumpkins?


The Greatest list for Earth Saving Ideas to reduce and reuse pumpkins:
  • Eat them! Pumpkins are high in Vitamin E and A and Fiber so make a healthy Pumpkin recipe...Yum.
  • Eat the seeds, dry them. Another Yum!
  • Compost them in your garden compost
  • Give them away. Offer them to a neighbor or friend w a compost bin  (if you don't have one).
    Planet them.  Kids can watch them grow!
  • Bring them to a farm that has animals that eat them. Did you know cows & cattle love pumpkins? Do call or ask first if they accept them. 
  • Plant Them. Cut each top off, so that the pumpkin looks like a plant potFill it with dirt. Then watch the seeds grow into new pumpkin seedlings!
  • Recycle them! Every town is different so double check the rules.
  • Smash them! Bring them to a pumpkin smashing in your town
NOTE: Don't leave them to degrade outside if you don't want mice, moles, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits or woodchucks coming to your yard. They love them!

Thanks for being a Planetpal!

Painted Benches Not Just A Place to Sit

Picturesque And Perfectly Painted


On a recent trip through Cape Cod, MA. I came across these lovely painted benches, located along the waterfront and among the artist sheds of Hyannis.

Not only were they inviting but masterpieces.  Almost too nice to sit on! These benches should inspire you with some ideas for your next upcycled furniture project you plan to paint.

Notice the way they extended the painting to the boardwalk.  An Idea for your deck?

How to Recycle it, Sell it, Swap it or Give it Away.


recycle michael

How, why, when, where to recycle just about anything!

Who would want it you wonder?


It's amazing. But it really is true: One man's trash is another man's treasure!

You might think "No one would want this!" But chances are there is someone out there willing to take just about any item off your hands and save it from the landfill. That's a good thing because we can use that space for beautiful things like flowers and trees!
Did you know you could swap books online? Your local library takes old reading glasses? You can set up a textbook recycle at your college? 

So, next time you are looking to lighten your load, check our list of places and it will be a simple task to hand that stuff over. Learn everything you ever wanted to about how, when, where to dispose of anything…Swap, Sell, Donate, more. Learn who to call to come get it, who the resources are, and where to find them. The complete guides are here:
