"Tobias Tahal, who is a carpenter and a skilled jewelry designer, put his skills to good use, making use of the discards that had washed up along the shores of Panaga. The art piece, which highlights the importance of recycling, took two months to complete. A total of 749 bottle caps, 16 flip flops, and 10 plastic bottles were used to create 'Betty Bottletop.' "
Tabal collected trash from the beach to create the sculpture. He presented it Ricardo's Catering for display. The cafe owner "hopes it will inspire visitors to do more with items collected from beaches. 'It also helps teach the younger kids about recycling, reusing and avoiding wastage,' she said."
