Earrings Workshop at Film Biz Recycling- April 29th

Need a unique, personalized gift for an environmentally-conscious friend? Or just looking to add a sweet new set of earrings to your collection while upping your eco/crafting cred? Have we got a class for you!

Join us for a 1.5 hour hands-on workshop (ages 13+) at Film Biz Recycling’s RE-Workshop. We’ll be using rescued plastic bags and umbrella frames to make fun, diamond-shaped eco-earrings. All materials provided.

What you’ll get from this class:

* knowledge of “upcycling” or how to use unusual (& often free!) everyday items to create interesting and eco-friendly craft projects.
* your own pair of fashionable earrings that look beautiful and have a low environmental impact.

garbage of eden design at AuH2o!! : )

Totally psyched to have some of my jewelry items on sale at AuH2o in the East Village : D
This shop is so cute, it's run by Kate Goldwater (the name of the shop is her last name as it would be abbreviated in elements from the periodic table, Gold = Au, H2o = water)
Kate makes a lot of the clothes right there in the shop. All of the clothes are reconstructed from old clothes for a new funkier life. There's also some great vintage jewelry. Everything's priced very reasonably. Check it out! www.auh2odesigns.com

Also, new Garbage of Eden Design pendant necklaces and rings are on sale!

Ecofest at the Lincoln Center

Next Sunday Sept 30th is the Ecofest at the Lincoln Center! It's going on from 11-6. It'll be chock full of exhibits with all kinds of neato "green" stuff. I just finished making the belt in the pic to the right for the fashion show that will be going on during the fest. It's made from upcycled plastic bags that have been stitched together using nylon thread. For more info about the festival check out www.ecofest.org.
