Recycling helps reduce the amount of landfills in different places. Other people who are very creative get deeper in to recycling. They create something from junk or old plastic containers.

Igreen spot has made some good reviews on the product. “With the aim to provide elegant and stylish cutlery whilst helping saving the environment, London based designer Oscar Diaz has come-up into a green cutlery design called Found. Found is a stylish cutlery made from recycled plastic bottles and are coated with metal. After each piece are formed and cut from a plastic bottle, it will then be plated with copper then with tin. The finished product looks extremely good and elegant that no one will notice it is made of recycled plastic bottle. Each piece is hand-cut from a selected part of the bottle for easy pick up from the table and work like any other cutlery.

From the Website:

” Instead of adding another utensil design to the boundless shapes and sizes that are already out there, Diaz took to “editing” pieces from carefully selected bottles that can be found on common supermarket shelves, and well, in the trash. Using a fairly straightforward production process, each piece is cut from a plastic bottle and then coated with copper and tinplated for a shiny, metallic finish. Since each utensil is essentially handmade from different shaped bottles, every new set is distinctive in nature — no molds needed.

As Diaz says “I don’t know if I can say that I completely designed it, but I do now look differently at things on the shelves when shopping.” In finding objects within objects, he reminds us that giving a little bit of extra thought to our surroundings we can yield some fresh and beautiful things in even the most banal and disposable things.”

It is very pleasing to hear how people are being on with nature and how they manage to restore it.
