Hello other humans,

I really wanna do my part in cleaning up the world and repurpose the resource that we are wasting at an alarming rate.

So I have pretty much have this down to a T, making hearts that are roughly 10cm long by 9cm across from recycled plastic lids I’ve collected from work and home.

I want to sell these and use the money to put towards my sheet machine coming in v4. (This will be my first machine). My question is, as I lack in the art side of things, what can i do/add/change to these to make them something I can sell?
Any pointers, or ideas would be much appreciated.
Kind regards.

First thing that comes to mind: Add text, making the hearts personolised gifts.

Don’t know the size, but if they fit in an enveloppe, you can also sell them as giftcards.

Make a hole in the top, add some cord (made from PET-bottles?) and you have home decorations…

@Donald

Thank you for your quick reply and clear ideas I will give these a try and see how they turn out.
They are 2cm thick and weight about 100g, so post might be expensive, I’ll look into this as well.

I will haha thank you.

“…so post might be expensive”: Are you putting a price on love? 😉

Never a problem. You can always PM me!

 

Oh, and “They are 2cm thick and weight about 100g”. I think you meant mm.
On the other hand, ! don’t know much about Australian lids 😉
