Sabina Urro is the accessories designer from Italy. You can find her under the name “SabUpcycled”. She specialises in upcycling unwanted goods to handbags, backpacks, belts, bracelets and other accessories 🎒.
In Lithuania various artists create art from unwanted materials. 🧵 We’d like to introduce you to Dalia Statauskienė. She has created brand Kuistukas Kuistukas and is making interior decorations and other practical goods from unwanted materials.
🇱🇻 🧵 Meet Latvian fashion artist Aiva ZĪLE – during her career as upcycled fashion designer she already upcycled 1,5 tons of unwanted clothes! As a personal contribution to society – that’s a lot. 👖
Meet Jolanta Daubaraitė. She is the owner of page Akimirkų Gaudyklė (In English “Trap of the Moments”) and is keen on upcycling and creativity. She takes photographs, makes souvenir mushrooms from cotton wool, recycles things, and makes handmade paper and cyanotypes.
Together we can do so much good – upcycling is a better way for waste materials. We joined our forces to create a platform that connects people, businesses and education institutions. All with one goal – to make our planet more beautiful, use less and give more.
We invite you to give your gift to our planet – to reuse and upcycle materials and create art by the lessons and ideas you can gather from our platform.
We are online since Jan 2023 and we have already saved:

Four organizations from Italy, Lithuania, and Latvia are implementing a long-term strategic partnership to create a unique and innovative learning and networking platform to promote education in upcycling and reusing old items that aren’t fit for purpose anymore and aim to support small sustainable businesses.
This platform introduces a new online learning course on upcycling. It serves as a network for individuals and small sustainable businesses and creates a community promoting upcycling and circular economy.
By becoming a member of our community, you help us to educate and inspire others by your own example and work. There are thousands, if not millions, of ways to transform trash into valuable, unique, high-quality professional products and fantastic gifts. This is the right space to share those ideas.

Giving old furniture a second chance.

In my workshop, waste paper into recycled paper, furniture and other items are creatively renewed or used, and the materials of broken umbrellas are turned into practical things that protect from the rain.

Going into deep. Truthfulness. Courage.
Lithuania
I care about what is happening in the environment and sometimes I despair when I see how massively and irresponsibly we consume. The fast fashion industry is highly destructive, so I give the old thing a chance for a new life by decorating second-hand clothes and accessories.
