Tip of the Day: Ecospun!


Here at the Etsy Labs we are constantly searching for creative ways to be nice to the environment. One focus has been on figuring out ways to reuse plastic bags. Another interesting way that plastics are being recycled commercially is with EcoSpun fiber.

Here is some beautiful hand-spun yarn EcoSpun from SpazSpun.etsy.com.



EcoSpun is made completely from recycled soda bottles and is manufactured into soft fabrics that can be used for clothing, bags, carpeting, home furnishings, fiberfill... The fiber can be combined with other fibers too. First, tons of plastic bottles are collected, labels and caps removed, and sorted by color. Then the bottles are cleaned and chopped into flakes, before being melted in vats. The liquid is extruded into strands of fiber. That's just the bare bones of the process.For more details on how EcoSpun is made, check out these links:

i've used recycled bottle fibers as core material when i've made needle felted creations and it felts really well! i'd definitely use it over polyfil, cause it helps the environment! :)

Good review, thanks.

Generic Drugs RX | purchase any medication at discounted prices. 100% Legal.
The anti-impotency treatment you are going to adopt just after being identified with erectile dysfunction is not likely to yield any fruitful result if you do not abide by the precautionary instructions recommended by the physician. For instance, after procuring generic cialis online if you administer cheap cialis without providing the necessary details to the doctor with regard to your medical history then there are chances that generic cialis intake might prove disastrous to you. Most particularly, if you are taking nitrate based medicine such as nitroglycerin patches to treat a specific medical condition you should inform the doctor mmediately so that he doesn’t suggest you to buy generic cialis. The usage of cialis by any person using nitrate-based medicines can trigger off health disaster and as such you can definitely avoid the imminent harm by explaining your medical history to the doctor and avoiding to buy cialis online if the drug is not meant for you.
