Coffee cup clocks at The Green Store

sundial.jpgI love discovering new recycling ideas! And here's one I'd never heard of till this afternoon: old coffee cups. A company called 'A Short Walk' is turning them into smart wall clocks, placemats and sundials, which come out in a stylish slate-grey. All are on sale over at The Green Store, and would make great additions to any aspiring eco-home!

All of the cups used for these products came from vending machines as part of the natoinal save-a-cup scheme, which takes in millions of coffee cups every week. If you know of a vending machine near you that isn't taking part, find out how you (or your employer) can get involved here.

Hi there, I've just been sent one of these as a sample as I'm thinking of stocking them in my new eco shop. They look great and they have a range of other interesting indoor/outdoor products too.

Would love to know how popular they are...
