Sustainable Sundays: The Re-Giftables

Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality and higher environmental value.

Upcyclers is a team of 1449 Etsy shops that are upcycling all over the world!
Each Sunday we feature a sustainable product from one Upcyclers shop.

This week's featured shop and item...

Christmas Ornament Re-Carded Matches



The ReGiftables Unique Handmade Gifts Made from Upcycled Gift Cards.

 

This gorgeous matchbox is made from a recycled gift card and features a hand-painted illustration of a crystal ornament hanging on a Christmas tree against a metallic sky. I can see it paired with a lovely candle making it a great gift for a teacher or friend.  Best of all, the matches are eco-friendly, GreenLight™ matches, that are sourced from responsibly managed forests and are the first in the U.S. to be certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.  Great work!
