| Evanston South store display made with reclaimed materials. |
Check out this amazing piece that my awesome husband created! It was made from totally reclaimed materials and scraps.
A little snippet from our store display project...
Materials:
Scrap metals and woods: old hardware, table legs, fence slats, tool and furniture parts
Wooden frame: recovered from an alley three blocks from the store
Letters: cut from old store shelving
Paint: leftover from another store project
Each scrap of metal, wood and fencing that shapes our Earth Day store emblem sign was recovered during several weeks of local scavenging. Green Mission Rep Andy used many of his 15-minute breaks to gather scrap treasures from alleys within five miles of our Evanston South store. A small team hand-cut, shaped, designed and painted these recycled pieces of our neighborhood into a handsome, multi-colored and -textured sign.
