ARTIST SHOWS CREATIVITY THROUGH EMPTY BOTTLES

Creativity knows no bounds –  this adage has been proved right by Bhawani Agarwal, who has taken to recycling of old and discarded bottles to earn money.
The talented youth recycles the spirit bottles and then sells them as home decor pieces after making beautiful designs or creating lovely pictures on them.

Bottles are cut and painted to achieve a definitive art statement. One can have his idol or favourite star painted on these bottles.
Bhawani says his products are a boon to people who want to gift their family and friends something unique. “We make it exactly the way customer wants,” he said.
Nikhil, an art lover said, “It’s unusual because its creative and handmade, people may also try this brilliant idea at home.”
Anything could be designed on these bottles, whether Elvis Presley or Sachin Tendulkar, depending on customer’s choice.
