News India Live, Digital Desk: Every woman definitely has a pile of old, discolored or broken bangles in her wardrobe.

In this era of ‘Waste to Best’, you can make such artistic things by using old bangles, seeing which even the guests will be in awe. Let us know some best and easy ways to recycle old bangles.

1. Make a royal ‘candle holder’ from bangles

You can make a wonderful candle holder by gluing old glass or metal bangles together.

How to make: Place 10-15 bangles of the same size one above the other and stick them with a ‘glue gun’. This will become a colorful cylindrical stand. Place a small candle or ‘tea-light’ in the middle. When light filters through these colorful glass bangles, your room will sparkle like a palace.

2. Stylish ‘Napkin Rings’ for Kitchen

If you want to give a special look to the dining table, then use old metal bangles.

How to make: Wrap the silk thread or gota-patti around the bangle. Decorate it by pasting small pearls or kundan on it. Now roll your cloth napkin and pass it between these bangles. This will give a ‘royal touch’ to even your ordinary dinner.

3. Beautiful ‘Wind Chime’ for the balcony

The sound of bangles tinkling with the gusts of wind gives great peace to the mind.

How to make: Hang threads of different lengths from a sturdy circle (such as a wooden ring). Tie old glass bangles to these threads. Add small bells or pearls in between. When these bangles collide with each other, melodious music will be produced. Hang it on your balcony or window.

You can give a look like ‘Mosaic Art’ to an ordinary plastic or wooden photo frame by decorating it with pieces of bangles.
