Share & Voice: What do do with all those plastic bottles?

So, although I hate to admit it, I am a soda junkie.  I drink at least one soda a day.  Sometimes it's out of an aluminum can, and sometimes it's out of a 20 oz. bottle.  I hate looking in the recycling at our house and seeing all those bottles.  I didn't know what to do with them besides throw them in the recycling.  Then we learned about junking in one of our environmental health class and it got me doing some research.  I found a lot of different websites (and a lot of different blogs) that had many different ideas for ways to reuse plastic bottles and ways to create them into some pretty new and interesting things.  I don't think it would be the same if I just listed off the different things you can do with plastic bottles.  Instead, go to these sites and check out the many ideas (accompanied by pictures) of how individuals reuse their bottles!
