Smug Pug Turning trash into something beautiful. We live in a world flooded with all kinds of disposable packaging that we so easily throw out without thinking twice.

I'm working to find a purpose for single use plastics while cleaning up the community.

Did a bit of a experiment with some HDPE plastics for pen blanks. Pretty pleased with how it looks. Next time will do an actual pen.

Also did a little lion version 😊

This was actually the very first bag I made. The one that started it all. Basically I bought a sewing machine just before South Africa went into lockdown for what was supposed to be 3 weeks. I learned the basics from YouTube and a lot of trial and error. I'm not a seamstress, I'm still learning every day but I'm enjoying making stuff and recycling in the process.

I made this satchel bag for a friend from a recycled Spar shopping bag.

Outside is all recycled plastic shopping bags with a pencil sketch printed on the top flap. Inside is a very simple cotton lining.
