Young Love
Reclaimed from old vinyl records, this cuff, featuring two love birds, is a wonderful expression of young love as well as earth love!

Go Green Teens!
This week I'm on the lookout for eco-friendly finds that eco-conscious teens can really dig...

I'm starting this theme off with this adorable pendant with a green message. Aside from the wording, this pendant is "green" in the following ways:
• Graphic Image decoupaged onto reclaimed Scrabble tile
• Non-toxic glaze for a glass-like finish

Mirror Mirror
On the wall... Who's the eco-friendliest of them all?
It's this contemporary circles mirror by BululuStudio!

This decorative mirror is not only aesthetically beautiful, but being as it's made from reclaimed pine wood, it's a wonderful "green" piece that you can and SHOULD add to your home.

Amethyst, Emerald, OH MY!
VivienCheng reclaimed a vintage handbag to create this beautiful clutch...
Here's what she has to say about her reclamation process:
Every vintage or reclaimed handbag that I revamp is customised individually with its own original hand-painted motif. As each handbag is one-off, I first sketch up multiple ideas in colour and sometimes do up paper patterns to test out my ideas before painting. Once I have the final design, I start painting my layers. I usually work on a small part of the handbag over several days. Sometimes a single handbag has up to 8 layers of paint on it!
My goal is to create designs that complement and enhance the handbag’s original style. It’s all about reviving and resurrecting the bag without disturbing from its original design, so I appreciate when someone sees my bags and assumes the motifs have always been there.
