All of our products (including our new jewelry!) are available on our website with an additional bonus of free shipping over a $50 order!
Our products are made from locally collected and processed no. 5 plastics. We have to use all of the plastic we collect and shred and we do so by creating these unique pieces for you and your home!
Check them out and let us know in the comments what other products you would like to see from us in the future.
Calling all Tidy Cats containers! That’s right, it’s that time of year again where we have shredded ourselves into corner and need more containers for our shredded plastic.
We would love it if would stick to cardboard for their containers but we will definitely reuse their buckets since they are out there!
Let us know if you have some you can drop by the studio- we are also happy to pick up.
