When sustainability is a big thing in the fashion industry I’m always positively surprised to find DIY geniuses who use things that lie around in our daily householdes. In this case : jewellery from rubber. I assume it’s mostly cut up pipes, but who knows, the possibilities are endless, and it looks genuinely good. I can very much imagine a designer that would sell these things; so before that happens, snatch the idea and make your own! (Maybe a last min. easter gift?)

That definitely is very eco-chic! The necklace is actually kinda cute now that I look at it. I just followed your lovely blog!
Would you mind having a look at my new blog? – Karen.
Hmm…pretty much anything you can make from paper coils is possible with these. And colors, too…lord knows that rubber bands come in a zillion colors. 😉
I fear this might mean we will all end up covered in rubber bands.
Crazy cat lady turns into crazy rubber band lady!

*giggles* Might go the way of the Duct Tape craze. Special rubber bands in designer colors and sizes, kids making rubber band dresses and tuxedoes…and it’ll be all your fault! 😛
I really dearly hope that this is not going to happen.
Although, who knows, maybe it can look pretty cool and it would be upcycling so hrm.
I think I still prefer clothing made from fabric though!
