the ecomonsters are here

ecomonster is surely making a turtle slow progress due to school loads piling in. since it takes so long to get a full stocked online shop up and running, we decided to start off small by blogging our progress. our goal is to make being green easy for all ages and likes. we strive to attract the bystanders over to the greener side with our unique and fun products that everyone could appreciate.

so here are just a few projects the monsters were able to crank between exams! enjoy :)

no. 1 - grocery paper bag book cover

paper // grocery bag

{how}
used the old school trick of turning a paper bag into a useful book cover for my cell bio book. then simply rubber stamped ecomonster logo all over.
no. 2 - pow comic bowl - SOLD


{materials recycled}
wooden bowl // curbside trash
comic books // 2nd hand shop

decoupage with old comic books using mod podge glue.
