These bracelets are a wonderful conversation piece. Chic and funky but also make a statement about the wearer's commitment to recycling and a cleaner, healthier planet. A percentage of the proceeds of each sale are donated to environmental causes. The tabs are purchased from a non-profit org. that in turn donates all money to various charities. Each aspect of the business is looked at to meet both environmental and social responsibility goals.
I love items that are made from scraps otherwise thrown away. This hanging lamp made from PVC, makes a very contemporary and unique piece.Ironically manufactured from “waste” pipe found unused in abundanceon building sites. Heather actually takes her inspiration from a table lampbriefly featured in the scarface movie. Let’s hope she gets a similar cult following.
Gordon Bennett builds each robot from items found primarily in landfills. The sculptures range from 14″ to 25″ and cost anywhere from $950 to $6,000. Certainly for that price, these were not meant to be toys. The robots offer a new way to recycle old “junk” and certainly make good conversation starters.
These hanging recycled glass bottle lights are a great idea, and great looking too. I olny wish I had thought of this first!Artist Jerry Kott takes used glass bottles, hand cuts them, then re-assembles the bottles, and polishes them to create these amazing colored sculptures. Each hanging light comes with a 14″ swag cord and is H17″ x 3″ diameter. Comes with a 40 watt frosted showcase bulb.
Make a Menger Sponge, a 3D fractal cube. Now you have a beautiful creation of business cards rendered useless by a change of company address and a great alternative to recycling. Reduce, reuse, and recycle!
