Recycle Assignment
My recycled materials are shoeboxes and some cardboard. I minimally cut the shoeboxes to avoid
using plastic tape/ more resources to make the product (which would have been contrary to the
purpose of recycling) and retain its support when stacked on one another. By folding edges
outwards, it creates slightly more push(force) upwards. As for the width, I refolded the box, widened
it (for shoes to fit in), and finally secured it with a stapler. Hence, I have increased the utility of the
cardboard within a few steps and saved myself from purchasing plastic/metal racks for the shoes.
