Shop To Watch: Eco Emporia

This amazing shop features handmade items from some of the most creative crafters on the planet, all working with recycled, reclaimed and repurposed items. From their website:

Eco Emporia was established by husband and wife team Anna and Peter Burns. After getting married they set off on a year’s round the world adventure which shaped their ideas for making things with reclaimed materials.

“Reusing and recycling is a way of life for many people around the world”, says Anna. “It’s about making the most of limited resources and income. As a result they create something new, useful and often ingenious. I remember being most impressed by the Uros people on Lake Titicaca in Peru. They created amazing boats by weaving lake reeds and kept them afloat using hundreds of recycled plastic drink bottles.

Not only do the owners feature items found along their travels and those from the UK, they also feature tutorials and online projects to help urge everyone along on the path towards creative crafting!
