This week’s ’stache is an adorable illustration by Hisss. Her other work is totally rad, too. Not only does she do illustrations but gorgeous photography!

WOW! I am totally in love with these recycled gift bows from Belly Buzz! She has them made from all manner of different magazines, though these WIRED ones might be my favorites! I want to put them on everything I give to everyone!!

I couldn’t resist posting this super-rad dress made from used plastic grocery bags by Emily Berezin! She did such a fantastic job…I didn’t even realize what she made it from at first! It’s so inspiring!

Check out this amazing pincushion by artist Elsa Mora! Elsa named the doll Mitra and transformed her from trash into an awesome way to store her pins and a pair of scissors! I just love the details she added, like the eyebrows. You can learn Mitra’s story over at her blog.

OK, I know mustache Wednesday doesn’t start for an hour, and I promise we have a picture all ready to go. But! I couldn’t resist posting about this awesome STACHEonery from Rhymes with Twee, one of my very favorite Etsy crafters! It’s basically the coolest! Leigh uses cut up lined paper, like the sort that you had in grade school, and screen prints her own mustache designs right on them. Simple! Adorable! Genius!

How exciting! Annie makes all sorts of pet accessories and offers a $5 rebate if you recycle your old collar or leash with her! Here is probably my favorite bit from the interview:

I fill a need in my personal life through DIY measures and improve upon what the market currently provides. That means using sustainable materials whenever possible, offering grassroots recycling of collars and leashes, or using recycled fibers in modular pet beds. I’ve got my hate on for disposable technologies masked as convenience. I want to make it all last just a little longer!


How awesome is that? It always gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling to see crafters, especially local crafters, creating sustainable, responsible, quality products. Go Annie!
