Up-cycling at it's best!

I just came across an incredible tweet by 'Metamorphic Gear' that illustrates an incredible way to up cycle plastic bottles. This video really makes you think about what we take for granted and how something as simple as an item we discard everyday can brighten up someones life.Innovative, smart, artistic and functional! are the 4 words that pop into my mind when I saw this.





If you have seen any other ingenious ways to up-cycle plastic bottles feel free to share and let me know.

The Eco Business Card

If you think about it, the business cards that we handout on a daily basis is highly damaging to the environment. They are usually made out of paper and have chemicals on it from the printing, which is hard to break down.

The solution! up-cycling old cigarette packs, napkins, and paper cartons.

I just love this solution, it makes use of scrap papers and card that would otherwise be thrown into the trash or recycling.
