DID YOU KNOW that only 25% of glass containers are actually recycled! That means when four glass containers go out into our world only one makes it's way back!!! 3 of the glass containers meet a terrible fate of 4000 years in the landfill!! What a shame. So my mission is to RESCUE some of these bottles, make them into something USEFUL again, then find good LOVING homes for them. I do this by finding orphaned bottles behind the local bars and restaurants in my hometown. I then wash and sterilize each bottle. Next, using my 8 years of glassblowing experience I carefully cut off the tops then FIRE POLISH the rims so they are completely smooth. What you end up with is Rewined Recycled Glassware: Completely utilitarian (and super cool) glassware made from NOTHING NEW. No virgin raw material is required. I believe when we divert waste from the landfill by finding NEW USES for the things we create, we help ease the strain on our over-burdened EARTH and live more in BALANCE. You can help by using Rewined Recycled Glassware! Adopt a set today!!! Future generations thank you for your MINDFULNESS."
