Object of Lust...

Hello All!
Right, Sexy object time... Although this isn't so much sexy, more cute, lovely, eco-aware, charitable and... did I say cute?
Soooooo about 1, 2, 3...9 years ago (God, I feel old!) A really lovely tutor at Uni had just come back from South Africa and had brought back a bag of amazing goodies to show us budding structural designers. His bag was full of models made by the street sellers from rubbish. An amazing rooster made from rubbish bags, cars made from coat hangers and I expect you've seen the likes of the bins made from newspapers gracing the sexy stores of John Lewis and Muji, all inspired by these inventive, creative peeps!
At Christmas I was drifting through the stores of West Sussex's Lewes and found this glorious bike made from coke cans! The store it came from, promoted recycling and FairTrade. Unfortunately I didn't give me a tag to tell me anything about the ornaments origins (boohiss! -bad promo guys!) But here is a place that can help you if you would like to get your hands on something quirky and world loving: VIA cornwall
