Living Green: Cars to Cups!

Cars to Cups

It’s amazing to see what products can be made these days from the most unlikely recycled sources. Sold on online retailer Uncommon Goods and hand-crafted in Colombia, this “Glass from the Past” collection of cups and bowls is made from recycled windshields! They are available in the above stemless wine glasses as well as beer glasses, goblets, pitchers, and bowls. They are simultaneously sturdy and elegant, and have retained the green/blueish tint originally added to windshields to block the sun’s glare. The glassware has even been featured on CNN Money and the Today Show! Keep your eyes out for more recycled goods on the Living Green posts, as they are a wonderfully unique and often stylish way to support the eco-industry.
