Eco Arts: Recycling cans and bottles in Kathy DellaValle’s style
Anupam | Jul 2 2009

Eco Factor: Eco artist turns plastic trash into functional jewelry.

What relevance do trashed plastic bottles and aluminum cans hold for normal party animals? I guess nothing, other than junk needing a place to be thrown or if someone cares a bit about the environment then recycle. However, recycling cannot always be as ecofriendly, since melting plastic to give it some other form requires a vast amount of energy, which in most cases comes from conventional polluting sources of fuel.

If you’re looking to help the environment in a more fashionable way by using products created from used plastic bottles and cans without melting them into some other shape, then Kathy DellaValle is the person you should look for. The eco-artist turns trash into fashionable jewelry that can be worn on any occasion. Moreover, the price she quotes for her artwork isn’t going to burn holes in your pocket as well. From earrings to broaches, Kathy does everything that can transform you into an environmentalist by ensuring that your makeover doesn’t end up polluting the scarce resources.

Thanks for the tip: [Kathy DellaValle]
