How do you recycle glass ornaments?
Broken ornaments (glass or plastic) usually cannot be recycled and must be thrown into the garbage. Make sure you wrap the broken ornaments in paper so they do not pierce the bag or the workers who collect the garbage.
How do you save a broken ornament?
Resin ornaments are best fixed with an epoxy-based adhesive. Find epoxy that dries fast and is suitable for in-door use. Be sure your broken pieces are somewhat clean so that debris won't get in the way. If you find extra glue has dried around the edges, use sand paper to gently sand away the rough features.
What do you do with used Christmas decorations?
Instead, consider donating them. As long as they're in good condition and still work as intended, secondhand stores can sell them any time of the year. A common practice is to put these out during the off season for a lower price so more people can have access to them when the holidays roll around again.
