Recycling will always be the way to go, but we've seen a huge rise in creative recycling. Case in point: Funky Junq. So many things can come to mind with those two words, but this junk is funky in the most stylish way!
Creative artist and designer Christine Esposito has loved arts and crafts all of her life and decided to use her talents for good. Eco-friendly, aluminum recycling good. She has worked her designs out of discarded aluminum cans, bottle caps, denim, catalogs, junk mail and more. The cute “Hello Kitty” necklaces are made out of recognizable soda brands. And the cute little boy and girl magnets…Christine calls them Little Scrappers than CAN do anything. Too cute!
