Going to the movies is always a treat for us. I have however
noticed the tremendous amount of waste generated in the form soft-drink (soda) and
popcorn containers. I do hope that the movie houses have a recycling plan in place for
these discarded items. After our last movie outing I took the popcorn container
home and turned this bucket into a simple gift basket which I decorated with an embossed
foil seal from a coffee jar.
Materials:
- movie house popcorn bucket
- foil seal from a coffee jar or any other decorative items
- ribbon remnants
- craft glue, embossing tool or knitting needle, craft sponge, punch
Method:
- Clean the movie popcorn bucket on the inside with a damp
cloth.

BushcraftZ 2014 - Cut two equal lengths of ribbon, long enough to be able to from a handle. Punch holes into the side of the bucket and thread the ribbon, secure the ribbons with a knot to form two handles.
- Decorate the bucket:
Embossing recycled foil seal. Place the seal upside down onto the craft sponge. Use an embossing tool or blunt ended knitting needle and emboss a simple design into the foil. Glue the embossed foil onto the bucket.
