Always be in your element! This tent bracelet was hand made in Guatemala by village artisans who used recycled materials. The TerraCycle Recycled Tent Bracelet is a hit with my son Cody and will make a GREAT gift for someone on your gift list this year.
Plastic has an undoubtedly convenient but worrying presence in our lives. Everyday items such as wrappers, bottles and even chewing gum (yes, it’s made of plastic!) are thrown away without much thought. In fact, Americans discard 14.4 million tonsof plastic a year, and only 13 percent of it is recycled. For difficult-to-recycle plastics (toothbrushes, cigarette butts, food wraps, beauty products, etc.) that are usually landfill-bound, check out TerraCycle. You’ll be surprised what items this innovative company repurposes.
