Lost and found and recycled, too

I am sure you all remember the famous scene from the movie “Gone with the wind” when Scarlett O’Hara made a dress out of the curtains just because she did not have something else to wear at an official meeting. Well, the human mind is innovative and many times we use our imagination to create very useful objects and even art from things that were ready to be thrown in the garbage.

Not only do we recycle them this way , but we also use them to embellish our homes and turn them into pleasant places to live in where guests are welcomed and surprised by some unusual looking pieces of furniture or lighting. Today I will present a very cool collection of lamps that are made of lost and found tableware. Some creative guys from Oddbirds combined these cups and plates and some other tableware pieces in an unusual and unique way and obtained … lamps.

They are all unique and look very delicate, carefully arranged to fit perfectly on top of each other. Plus, they are fully functional and spread a warm light in the room.

They can be connected to a normal wall plug, but the cord is wrapped in a textile fibre, which is also unusual, but eco-style. Each lamp has a girl’s name and a predominant colour and I would honestly love one in my living-room.
