Photohunters: Theme-creative
Coconut leaves and bamboo are two of the most abundant resources available in the rural areas. Here we see creative uses of the two natural resources.
Two Iban young ladies weaving decorations in the form of a shield using coconut leaves.
Here bamboo is used as a cup-holder. Anyone for a creative cuppa?
A creative, artistic sculpture - something you will never find in Manhattan 
Creative use of egg cartons and used aluminium cans to brighten a home
A creative revolving door, just the thing for visitors. Add a bell and you will know when visitors arrive at your home.
Clear the table of clutter and it will be just nice for putting your stuff…and it is double layer too.
Just the thing if you do not have enough chairs for your guests…
Decorations to brighten up the home..bamboo snakes and red ang pows ( red packets )

It is amazing what you can make out of those leaves. Something that has been around for many years, and years to come. Great photo, and thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend.
What creative use of bamboo. Great pic. Happy weekend!
Who would have thought bamboo could be so versatile. very creative. I like the revolving door best.
that is very beautiful!! I bet it is really sturdy too.
one of our arts class before we made handicrafts made of coconut leaves and bamboo. that is really creative and economical too.
LOL, using bamboo tubes as dustbins kinda limits the things that can be thrown inside unless u can compact the garbage first.
Yeah, I agree bamboo are very versatile and great for creative ideas.
Great photo’s BB, you should be proud… and you’re right, you’re not likely to find that in Manhattan! Btw… I’m very much fully grown and my Dad is still my hero!
Oh my! I had no idea there were so many uses for cocnut leaves and bamboo! I am just so impressed with the creativity! My photos are up please visit
Coconut leaves and bamboo were widely used when I lived in the kampong many many years ago. It’s very hard to find bamboos now and it has become expensive too.
BB: that may b so in Singapore but not over here
Amazing. I remember watching people do that in Hawaii and marveling at their talent.
Wow you can do so many things with those stuffs. I was especially amazed by the last pict. Bamboo bin!

We do have all these in the Philippines too.
The weaved coconut leaves are still widely used during festivities in the provinces.

That’s amazing!
The versatility of the coconut, the so-called Tree of Life. Those are the natural resources creatively use for a purpose which are earth-friendly rather than the plastic things. We do have these too in the Philippines.
Have a great weekend!
I especially liked the double-layered table. I could use several of those for my clutter! And I think I will look around for some now!
Those are all very creative uses of those materials. Just awesome!
Wow! Great way to reuse natural resources.
Mine’s up.
Lots of creative thinking there!!
Great stuff, used to weave flax as a kid, was pretty fun and the results creative and useful.
