EcoTwine Vase
by Design Ideas
Misprinted and misaligned scrap sheets of plastic labels for soda bottles, candy wrappers and the like are rescued from waste and repurposed as the raw material for these rich-hued woven containers. The task of creating this plastic “twine” is given to women in India who work from home to earn a living while caring for their children and families. This environmentally and economically friendly process is functional and one-of-a-kind works of art. Vases are fitted with glass inserts for containing water. A fresh way to look at flowers!
