Moreover, DIY is fun! It is a fantastic way to display your creative side and try new art and craft. You can create your wall hanging with waste material alone during your leisure time or even do it with your kids. 

What kind of waste can you use?

• Old newspapers
• Pebbles

• Leftover threads or ropes
• Waste Paper cuttings
• Old bangles
• Old fabric
• Shells

Here are some innovative ideas for decorating your walls using waste materials.

Wall hanging from waste material #1: With disposable plastic spoons

Do you have a set of disposable plastic spoons that you will never use? Or some spoons from your previous party. Please don’t throw them in the garbage! Just wash them and dry them. Now paint them all in your favorite color. Take one circular piece of cardboard, paint it the same color, and paste a small round mirror in the middle. Now glue down all the spoons around the mirror in 2 or 3 layers depending on the number of spoons you have. You get a stunning wall hanging in your living or dining room!

Wall hanging from waste material #2: With old CDs and newspaper

Would you believe this beautiful piece of art is made from old newspapers and CDs? Try this if you want to get rid of old CDs and free some space. Draw your desired shapes on the CD. Slightly heat it with your hair dryer and cut the shapes with a pair of scissors. To make the uniform connecting sticks, roll some old papers tightly and glue them. Now, paint them and stick them in a nice pattern on small round cardboard. Paste the CD pieces on the paper sticks to create a lovely design. 

Wall hanging from waste material #3: With popsicle sticks

Start collecting the sticks of every popsicle you and your family have had. When you have at least 20, glue them together in different patterns and shapes. You can paint them or wrap them in coir or colorful threads. You can also paste small paper flowers or pistachio shells on them. Go crazy with your creativity. The best part is that your kids can do this too. They will thoroughly enjoy this one.

Wall hanging from waste material #4: With old fabric

Everyone has fabric they can’t wear anymore but want to save forever- maybe a dress, a saree, or even a sweater! Neatly cut them into squares, rectangles, or circles and put them in your old photo frames that need a change. You can also tightly fix them on a canvas, and they are ready to go. Who would think a wall hanging from waste material could look so beautiful?

Wall hanging from waste material #5: With old bangles

Find your old bangles lying around for years without use. Wrap them neatly using colorful woolen threads. You can decorate them with pearls and beads from your broken necklaces. Mix and match with bangles of different sizes or threads of different colors. Paste the bangles together in various designs. Your easy wall hanging is ready.

Wall hanging from waste material #6: With pebbles

You might have seen pebble art being sold in home décor stores. What if you can make them at home? Take a stroll in your garden or neighborhood and collect little pebbles.

Wall hanging from waste material #7: With shells

Remember the shells you collected when you went to the beach years ago? You can paste these natural beauties on cardboard in a white or aqua background and put them in a frame. You may also paste them nicely around a mirror or a clock to make them more useful.  Another idea is to tie them together and hang them in rows of strings on a stick or a wooden rod. These wall hangings are sure to pull your guests’ attention.

By shells, we didn’t mean just seashells. You can do the same with pistachio shells. You can even color these before pasting them
