Plastic bottles find their way into just about every aspect of our daily lives. Manufacturers use them for a gamut of products that range from dishwashing fluid to rubbing alcohol to soda. You’ll likely spot at least one plastic bottle in the room you are sitting in right now.
We use so many plastic bottles that disposing of them has become a problem. The containers choke landfills and pollute the oceans.
Do you have used soda bottles lying around at home? Instead of throwing them away, you can easily repurpose them. Put those old bottles to good use and turn them into a piggy bank.
This is perfect when you’re trying to save up for a trip or a favorite pair of shoes. You can also give these bottle piggy banks as a gift.
You may customize it according to your preference. If you wish to be really creative, you can do away with the usual pink color. Paint your bottle piggy bank any color you want – go crazy! Your imagination is the limit.
