Stella Divina Coasters Recycled Tile Needs Beer Labels You Get Free Coaster


Stella Divina Coasters - Hand Crafted in the U.S.A.

As we are always on the hunt for upcycle and recycle artists, we just found Stella Divina of Claremont Village, CA.  She is creating away gorgeous colorful drink coasters from old tile, cork and labels. Not to mention, she's encouraging people to drink beer and send her labels.  Why?  

She says, "I make upcycled coasters using recycled tiles that I paint by hand. Each tile has different mixed-media embedded into it, such as craft beer labels, vintage art, wine labels, or photography. I have a Beer Drinking Team so people can peel labels off their bottles and send them to me to recycle them into my coaster, and 25 labels gets anyone a free coaster. Great way to recycle those labels!"

Who would know these were old kitchen and bathroom tiles? Find them here at StellaDivina.com or Etsy shop astelladivina

This coaster by Stella Divina $14.99 and an old citrus crate label. Find it here.

Drink Beer & Get a Free Coaster? 

It is true craft beer is a hugely popular item today.  Although most people recycle the bottle, the labels are lost forever. Now you can remove the labels and send them to Stella Divina, and get a free coaster!

Back in the day of grandma and grandpa baby bottles were glass, and easy to sterilize. You would never heard of plastic milk bottles. Unfortunately over time chemicals used in plastic baby bottles could contain harm to baby.  Why would you stick harmful things in baby's mouth? This idea using a mason jar and cap with BPA free drink unit is an idea for toddlers...at Iowa Farm Life Dreams.  Maybe growing up on the farm means mason jars aren't just used for ice tea anymore. 

Thanks to the shops above for taking steps to create items that are better for baby.

Sunshine....

Sunshine
SpunkyFluff sunshine mini sign.

Yes, it's true here in the States we are under the spell of Hurricane Joaquin right now.  So we wait for the rain to clear...

So we wait for the sun to appear.  All this rain makes for dreary weather. Yawning at work and wishing we were somewhere else.  Just like magic, after the rain clears, we wait for the rainbow.


Solar Energy Infographic

FACT:  Did you know, the US U.S. consumes the most global resources. We use 19+ million barrels of oil in a single day. Since 1990, greenhouse gas emissions have risen 11%. These same gases are what cause global warming. We need to make a change now. It's time to use renewable energy sources, such as solar power.
