It uses the world’s most abundant resource, trash, to create tables, chairs, glassware and fabric for home or office.

Recycling is crucial to the future of our environment ! I absolutely love this.
just wish that I personally had the tools and know how to make more of my own!
Great idea! I love seeing all the creative ways people can recycle to produce new and useful products!
Great book to read and do was Trash to Treasures back in the ’80s. One man’s trash is another’s treasure. Now if we could get companies to make things to last a long time again we would be in business! >^,,^<
