What once was my favorite pastime as a child is now only a happy yet distant memory, but if I took a cue from the Uttarayan Kite Festival in Ahmedabad, India, I may be inspired to do more than simply reminisce about those good ol’ days.
Although these kites before you are handcrafted, instead of wasting brand-new materials, they put their money-saving, eco-friendly caps on and decided to create upcycled kites out of trash. Kudos to the Uttarayan Kite Festival.
