Deciding What to Donate to Scraplanta
Although our Periodic Table is rather exhaustive, sometimes there are random things that you wonder if Scraplanta will accept. Here is a mental flow chart to consider.
The Periodic Table of Creative Reuse is a visual example of the types of materials that Scraplanta Creative Reuse will accept. We hope this can be used as an example to inspire others to repurpose these materials. Our table was inspired by ReCraft's Periodic Table of Reuse.
