Green Options

We are all guilty of recycling plastic bottles and thinking we have done our part.  In reality recycling is worthless if we don’t buy products made from recycled materials.  One of my favorite recycled craft supplies is Eco-fi Felt from Kunin Group that I used to make a Domo-Kun plush doll for my son. One way you can help close the recycling loop is to use Eco-fi Felt in your next craft project.

Eco-fi Felt (formerly known as Eco-spun) is a polyester felt made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles.  It takes 10 plastic bottles to make 1 pound of Eco-fi fiber.  As a frame of reference it takes 17 bottles to make enough fiber for a sweatshirt.  When you buy and use Eco-fi Felt you can feel relieved that you kept a bunch of plastic bottles out of the landfill and minimized depletion of natural resources.
