The Magda van der Vloed vases are creatively made out of re-purposed and recycled materials. Magda's work focuses on minimizing waste, and she believes in the art of recovery and recycling. Many have a bad habit of over consumption, without considering the consequences.
Magda's creativity is reflected in each of her pieces. One would not normally think to re-use detergent and cleaning product bottles, but this craft proves that they can be re-purposed in a beautiful way. The artist carefully selected a few colored bottles and removed the labeling, and added some crocheted hats onto the nozzles to create these artistic pieces. These would be ideal for homeowners who are looking to spruce up their abodes without spending ample amounts of money.
This is also a great do-it-yourself project that is easy to replicate, and makes for a great conversation piece.
