Bottletop & Crossroad
Hey, have you ever turned a random souvenir or discarded item you found on your travels into something creative? I’m all about upcycling trash into treasure, and I’d love to hear your stories and swap ideas for turning found junk into cool gear for your next adventure.
Hey! I love turning random finds into something useful. On a trip to Peru, I came across a broken ceramic pot and turned it into a pretty little planter for my hostel room—just sealed the cracks, painted it, and added a small potting mix. In Thailand, a discarded bamboo rain hat became a lightweight backpack strap when I stitched it onto a canvas pack. And in a market in Morocco, a cracked glass bottle became a unique candle holder after I glued a cork base and added a tealight. What’s the most weird item you’ve rescued? Maybe we can swap ideas and create some cool gear for our next adventure!
