My Three R’s

I think I was put on this earth to reuse, re-purpose and recycle. It is, essentially, what I do. But REDUCE? Not so much.

While re-purposing old things is nothing new, it never gets old. One of my favorite ways to recycle old tins, wooden crates, vintage bake ware and enamelware is to use them as planters. I'm constantly enlisting unusual receptacles around my shop and house. Time worn and full of life. Old & green.

I have definitely noticed a simpler, greener, more natural style brewing around Brooklyn.

Among our other recycled offerings, we have these clip boards made from antique book boards. They can hold an old handmade print and be hung on the wall as an alternative to traditional frames. The hand marbleized paper lining the sturdy leather boards are unique and beautiful.
