I don't know squat about 3D printing. Is the plastic biodegradeable, otherwise you end up replace things (like the bouquet) with things that aren't recyclable / don't biodegrade ?
PLA Filament (The most common type in personal 3d printing) is technically compostable, but realistically will likely end up in a landfill due to inadequate disposal practices in most waste management systems.
Thanks for the info. When 3D printing started to blow up I brushed it off due to the plastic waste I would produce. I need to look into it again it seems.
Also, certain types of 3D printable materials are reusable, if you put in the effort.
Another popular plastic (in addition to PLA) is ABS and that is definitely recyclable but not biodegradable-- it's the same kind of plastic Lego are made out of
