• Absolutely loving these lampshades



  • New York City-based product design company Souda has created a stunning chandelier from recycled plastic bottles—all in the name of a good cause. 

    Made from bottles collected by homeless individuals—to raise money for non-profit, homeless-friendly organization SURE WE CAN—each chandelier takes up to 60 bottles to construct. 

    Inspired by the cell-like shape of soap bubbles, the ‘Bubble Chandelier’ is a wonderful example of how ordinary waste products can be up-cycled into something beautiful and useful - Shree Ganesh


    How beautiful is this light? To think it's just your everyday plastic bottles.
