EcoTwine at Home Eco
You’ve got to admire someone who looks at a candy wrapper and thinks, “Hmmm, this could be a placemat.” EcoTwine from Design Ideas takes “misprinted and misaligned” candy wrappers and soda bottle labels and twists them into twine for placemats, bowls, coasters, vases and other table top accessories. The items - available at Home Eco in south St. Louis - are sturdy, colorful and extremely versatile. You can use them indoors or out. And since they’re easy to clean – all you have to do is rinse them off - they’re perfect for picnics, camping trips or outdoor parties. Best of all, EcoTwine products aren’t just environmentally conscious; they’re made by women in India who craft them at home while caring for their families. Sauce pick: EcoTwine table accessories Price: $6 to $27 Where to get it: Home Eco, 4611 Macklind Ave., St. Louis Info: 314.351.2000 or www.home-eco.com |
