Plastic Fantasic

Summer days mean swimming and relaxing, but they also means extra litter on our beautiful beaches. Today I am celebrating some more eco-conscious designers that have given salvaged beach plastic a new life as interesting and colourful jewellery. from top left 1.Rainbow Warrior Lei by Rebecca Ward

  4. Hello, i'm working on a school project and I have a few questions about reusing beach trash and making it into bracelets, etc. I'm from Cozumel. I wonder if you can solve my questions. It is safe for human skin? I mean, does a single and simple wash of the recollected plastic is enough? Maybe is a dumb question but idk. Thank you ♡
