The image with the most likes will win.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The three categories were created to help Mount Alexander Shire people think: \u2018what is the benefit of upcycling?\u2019<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The Emerald prize was for the item that resulted in the most waste reduction; the Silver prize was for the most interesting new idea or use of a waste item, and the Ruby prize was for the most artistic. The winner of each category won $300.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>&#8220;We wanted to encourage people to see waste as something valuable. To see it as a way to make something new, rather than as an item of rubbish,&#8221; said Tiffany Inglis, co-founder of The Good Op Shop. &#8220;And we\u2019ve had some fantastic entries!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The judging panel, Izzy Harrod (Castlemaine Secondary College representative), Sam Deal (local sculptor) and Ella Hughes (a local ceramicist), chose the winners from 18 entries.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>&#8220;We had a lot of fun talking about each entry and how it related to the criteria,&#8221; Ella said. &#8220;They were so interesting and inspiring.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The Emerald Award went to Samantha Wittenberg who made a rag rug entitled \u2018Pink Sea Dream\u2019 made from sheets, old clothes too worn to be used, cotton, acrylic and silk.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The Silver Award was given to Anj Neal who entered a doorstop called \u2018Byrdjil\u2019. It is made from the base of a 20-year-old broken blender, discarded clothing, an old head massager, piece of old irrigation, broken ball, offcuts of ribbon, old buttons, and bits of metal.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>&#8220;I love the way everyone interpreted their entries so differently,&#8221; Izzy said, &#8220;And really thought about the impact that we are having on the environment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><br \/>The Ruby Award was jointly won by Bev Lewis and Rhyll Plant.<\/p>\n<p>Bev\u2019s underwear entitled \u2018I\u2019m Watching You\u2019 is made from recycled clothing and old pillowcases; while Rhyll\u2019s \u2018Plane Sailing\u2019 sculpture is made from an old wood plane, wooden op shop items, tent struts for masts, op shop cloth and string.<\/p>\n<p><br \/>&#8220;The variety of entries was so impressive,&#8221; Sam said, &#8220;As was the creativity and detail that people went to.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
