Add some eco-style to your garden with recycled tyre flower pots

Spring is just round the corner, and those of us lucky enough to have gardens are starting to think about them – so why not liven up your garden with these funky recycled tyre flower pots. Driving is one of the major causes of carbon emissions, and many car parts and accessories are simply scrapped, ending up in landfill, so finding a use for old tyres rather than just throwing them away is at least one way of helping to cut waste. These recycled tyre flower pots are suitable for use both indoors and out, and come in three sizes – handy for all your planting needs! Strong, durable and made to last, these recycled tyre plant pots are hand-cut and hand stitched by traditional craftsmen in the Middle East, many of whom are using talents passed down from generation to generation. Each pot is made from 100% recycled materials, made from the rubber of old tyres that would otherwise be sent to landfill. So you are not only buying a fun, funky accessory for your home, patio or garden, you are helping support traditional skills as well as being eco-friendly – making these the perfect gift, even if just for yourself!

This beautiful Enlaira recycled glass vase was featured in the Times magazine style section this week and you can certainly see why. Available in pink and black or white and black, it would make a stylish addition to any room and is currently on sale from Biome Lifestyle.

The vases uniquely combine computerised manufacturing techniques with artisan glass blowing skills that can be dated back centuries, so in buying an Enlaira recycled glass vase you are not only helping support a green producer but helping to keep these skills alive. The company has been designing and crafting these vases in Valencia since 1975, so have decades of experience in bringing the very best in contemporary eco-design to your home. So with winter fading and spring round the corner, why not treat yourself to a beautiful Enlaira vase to brighten up your living room?

Be green in the afterlife with an Acorn recycled Urn

While no one wants to think about death, more and more people are starting to think that, when they die, they want to leave the planet in the same eco-friendly manner that they lived. The Acorn recycled urn helps you or a loved one minimise the environmental impact of a passing, so you can respect someone’s green beliefs even after death. Available in gold or green, the beautiful and simple Acorn urn is designed for use with a cotton ashes bag and is the perfect environmentally friendly receptacle for ashes. Produced to regulation size, the Acorn recycled urn is made from compressed newspaper, making it strong, and durable. The gold Acorn is hand finished with Dutch gold leaf applied over a red base, while the green Acorn urn is hand finished with moss green coloured paper made from recycled silk and mulberry leaves. The stalks of the lid on both the gold and green urns are made from a twist of recycled paper. The Acorns will last indefinitely if kept dry and are an eco-friendly and ethical way to store a loved one’s ashes. So while it is never pleasant to think about dying, it is reassuring to know that in death as in life you can help the planet – making it a better place for those left behind.

Stylish recycled designer lightshades are perfect for your home

Light up your home with Use UK’s range of beautiful recycled designer lightshades. These eco-friendly lightshades are handmade from 100% recycled cardboard – consisting of 80% post-consumer waste and 20% post-manufacture waste – and are available in a range of styles to complement any decor scheme. These include the beautiful regency black, spiro and art deco style Taj oblong as well as a selection of other styles. These recycled shades are designed to fit both pendant and UK standard lamp bases, with the smaller BC (29mm) lamp holder ring inside (this is unsprayed). The lightshades are available in two sizes (small is 17.5 x 20cm and the medium is 20 x 30cm) but, as each shade is made to order, the wider European lamp holder ring is available on request. Because of the recycled material used in the lightshades, each is slightly different and may have minor imperfections, as is characteristic of recycled products – which just adds to their homemade charm. In buying one of these stylish lightshades, you are not only supporting British trade and design, you are encouraging the use of recycled material and preventing waste going to landfill – so this really is a greener way to light your home. Just make sure you use an energy efficient lightbulb to really maximise your eco design credentials!
