I Turn 9,000 Trash Boxes BACK INTO A TREE (Giant Sculpture!)

I have a huge pile of cardboard trash boxes from the packaging on my PopSocket Car materials. So I took all that wasted cardboard and turned it back into a tree. I DIY sculpted it by making paper mache clay with cardboard, glue and Sheetrock joint compound. Can I turn all this trash into a giant bonsai tree sculpture? Can recycled garbage be crafts? How long will I have to art?

In case you missed whyyyy I have all these trash boxes kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoWXcmyKZ7eDeLc

[@maxximumb]

Ali, no tree ever used a tape measure on itself. A vice is just a heavy clamp, bolted to a table. Improv clamp is excellent. More Bon-Sigh than Bonsai (hehe) Tree looks great.

[@titus9895]

I’m disappointed you didn’t add Chia seeds, that would’ve been epic

[@titus9895]

you have done a treerrific job, wish I had the patience, I see that your dog is jealous of the bark!

[@Zytx2]

Can you make a giant bonsai chia tree?

[@kristophjj17]

As someone that works for a tree nonprofit, this made me unreasonably happy! Now I need something like this for our office.

What does your tree nonprofit do and what's it called?!

Did they get the tree? 😅

[@suesheane3671]

Wow. You are a talented artist, Ali. The use of the pop socket backing as leaves looks Great! Your time well wasted. 🤣

[@alispagnola]

Haha so glad to hear you think so

[@flowersforwondergirl]

This one had me saying, "That's so cool!" out loud, multiple times! I just love your creativity and perseverance.

[@alispagnola]

YAY!!

[@bocaccio5]

Ali, this is unbelievable! I am always impressed with your perseverance. Hat’s off to you for turning all that trash into something beautiful. I look forward to seeing what you do next.

[@Upper_echelon_exotics]

Awww man you missed a great opportunitree there...unbeleafable! Lol 😂

[@loricook8422]

You should have an exhibition with all of these creations so the public can see them all at once. You rock! Always look forward to your videos.

[@Sk1tch3r]

Great work Ali! Logically the next step is to make some art with the blenders that died to make this project happen. Or maybe a bicycle powered blender so you don't have to skip leg day next time ;)

[@catherinejustcatherine1778]

That is a great idea! Does Ali do gears and stuff? (Hooking up the bike)

[@gatorfan968]

Big props to Ali's roommate for putting up with Ali's outrageous projects.

[@juliusroman8616]

She's her girlfriend now, so she kind of has to.

YAS! So glad you found Jonnie and Ultimate Paper Mache

[@stumcconnel]

I'm legit always impressed when I see you cut through that piece of 1/2" plywood with a dremel! Awesome sculpture too!

[@gary111498]

To make large amounts of paper pulp. I use a garbage disposal with a bucket on top and a garden hose for water. Can make about 5 gallon bucket in 15 minutes. Love your sculpture!

[@peregrinef3203]

why I show Ali videos to my kids sparingly: because the vast majority of us actually need to plan to create something like this. why I show my kids Ali videos as much as possible: most of us struggle to turn challenges on their head and find creative solutions resulting in unplanned yet brilliant results.

[@alispagnola]

Hahaha I love this so much

[@douglasboyle6544]

Top Tip: Next time you're cutting tubing on your table lay the tubing in the grooves rather than across them, they will help hold it in place even better with the clamps etc. :)

[@LoveForLudwig]

I love that you show the whole creative process - both the ups and downs. As a creative type myself, it is so easy to compare my journey to other people's final product.

[@chelseaguinn5371]

Thank you for being awesome and doing what you do. You make me, and I imagine ever so many other people, so happy 😊

I always find art projects that look *terrible* in the middle always feel the most satisfying when they resolve themselves along the way as part of the process. Ali is a true pop artist.

[@sailinglin584]

Birch please 😂 This turned out great! I always enjoy watching you committing art 🎨 🌳

[@donaldh5965]

The pun density in this video is unbeleafable.

Using those things for the leaves was brilliant and they look so cool!

[@TheKira699]

One Popsocket leafed Bonsai tree. Awesome artwork Ali.

[@NeiloNeil]

Awesome! You could put it on a shirt and sell it as birchandise!

[@TheKatarinaGiselle]

I really, really, really love and appreciate the fact you thought to do this rather than throwing those boxed in the trash because when I was watching you pop socket car video, I couldn't help but think (as you spent HOURS UPON HOURS UNBOXING!!) That I didn't want to see all those boxes end up wasted! You are constantly surprising me with your ideas and talent and I wish I could work with you because I have IDEAS GALORE, But I don't have the means to do anything about all my ideas...which def leads to depression 😩😞😔🥺

[@stephenkellervideos]

This video was blossoming with puns. I don’t think you could leaf any opportunity unmatched

Ali you need to be a resident artist at a museum somewhere

[@creedencecomet]

That looks AMAZING Ally!!!

[@craftymammabear9432]

I'm 2 minutes in and I already love the video just wanted to say for future projects a neat trick takes sawdust mix it with watered down paint and microwave it and you get this you get this fluffy colored stuff you can use for Greenery and texture for grass for leaves for whatever using thicker pieces of sawdust can give you bigger leaves and thinner pieces can give you finer texture I've seen videos of it on KZbin if you look them up. It called home made flocking

[@kevinmack9786]

When we find ourselves in times of troubles Our pally Ali creates a tree 🙂 Sharing images of vision🌞 We can see a bonsai tree🕊️ ☮️kevin

I love Joanie! She sells books on this too

[@WeaversFate]

That is absolutely gorgeous!!!

[@Nirrrina]

That looks really great. If it will last, I'd recommend some kind of a sealant, you could auction it off to viewers for a local pickup. Then put the money towards your next crazy adventure & get that big beautiful bonsai tree out of your house. If you haven't already. Or had it drop dead immediately after the video.

[@Beckywith03]

Your tree turned out so beautiful!!!

[@Tulpen23]

This has to be my favorite art project video of yours! Not only was the final product beautiful, it was a great use of your packaging waste (and I hope you'll use the rest of the stuff someday too), and had so many things go wrong along the way which was just funny to watch. Here you went forward in a particularly unplanned fashion, which just heightened the outrageousness and even led to a more uniquely beautiful result. And I nearly spit out my drink when you pulled out the 3rd blender! Great job! That tree should be sold and sit in the reception of a nice building.

[@PhoebesWorldProductions]

Love it! It’s so pretty! It’s Tree-riffic. 😉

Yeah...I have a giant stack of newsprint paper because we hired a moving company to move us across the country. I'm hoping to help it find a second life as moving paper but it is inspiring to look at. Also know there's way way more in the storage unit.
