The tall, see-through stripper shoes with the insects inside the humongous platforms are really a total riot!

Check out these cool rings that are made from old jewellery.  They are hand-embroidered over the setting or stone, creating a very unique piece of jewelry!

Besides being fun and beautiful, these rings have been created with Mother Earth in mind. Because each ring is reconstructed from found jewelry, you can feel good in knowing that your ring has been recycled. What’s more, if you feel like making a statement about “blood diamonds” or other harmful mining processes, these rings send just the right message. Who needs diamonds and sapphires and emeralds and pearls when you can wear an original, anonymous, beautiful recycled ring! Via: recycledrings

How cool is this- a courier bag made of a real gentleman’s business suit. 40x60cm and complete with a very hard wearing recycled seatbelt as the shoulder strap, for a mere 180 bucks AUS, you probably could make this at home for a fraction of the price- well your price, I’m not sure your father would appreciate you recycling his number 5 pinstripe 2 button for the cause..

Christiane Diehl is a jill-of-all trades; in addition to her line of recycled rubber jewelry, Diehl also dabbles in landscaping and photography. The rubber used in Christiane Diehl’s jewelry line comes from reclaimed bicycle tubes and air mattresses. Diehl cuts the rubber into tiny pieces and strings them together by hand. In these pieces by Christiane Diehl, the rubber’s properties appear transformed. I don’t see an old bicycle tire, but a strip of grosgrain ribbon or delicate fringe fabric instead. Through her work in landscape architecture, photography, and jewelry design, Christiane reveals a deep interest in the significance of everyday details. Her rubber jewelry exemplifies this work– proving that everyday, and often overlooked, material can be transformed into something unique and unusual with a bit of creativity. Visit Inhabitat
