Wrap It. Bag It. Messenger It. Sustainable Greetings from Degenkolb
Reuse. Renew. Reduce. At Degenkolb we’re strengthening our commitment to reuse materials creatively, source supplies locally, and build a healthier built environment. We creatively reuse existing materials and strengths in older buildings to avoid deconstructing and wasting materials while extending the life of a building. Now we’re taking on the plastic bag!
We have three holiday projects that reduce the demand for new plastic bags and creatively reuse pesky plastic that never goes away. You can download the templates and instructions by clicking on the images below.
However, don’t limit yourself to just these projects. Let your imagination run loose and show us what you can make with plastic bags. In honor of the person who submits the most creative project and in keeping with the spirit of the holidays, we will donate $5,000 to his or her charity of choice*.
Please email photos and a brief description of what you made to aodell[at]degenkolb.com by February 1st, 2008, and tell us about your creation so we can include the pictures here on the blog.
The winner will be announced in March…good luck!
