Bottle Painting
One way I can help reduce waste in the environment is by hand-painting reusable bottles. These “Hydro Flask” double-insulated steel bottles are easily dented if it hits the ground so I noticed many peers save up $40 to buy one of these bottles every other month. I took the opportunity to paint some of my friends’ for free and seal it twice with resin — it became my side hustle.
With the overwhelming amount of support from the first few months of launching my Etsy shop, I’m excited to continue to produce these one-of-a-kind bottles as commission pieces/special orders!

All bottles are sealed with 2 coats of resin, “a solid or highly viscous substance of plant or synthetic origin that is typically convertible into polymers” (TLDR; a strong and durable material).

Hand-wash only. Dish soap OK.
