From Waste to Wonder
Looks sure can be deceiving, but not always in the way that you think. Antakarana artisans reverse this phrase’s negative connotation as they unite in an eco effort to make use of waste. These creative single mothers from Colombia take pride in the fact that their chic Something Old, Something New trays originated as discarded wooden crates.
Beware: this stylishly hand-crafted piece’s organic pattern of rich and faded hues may impress your dinner guests more than your culinary creations. 
For a similar look, the Chapati candle tray that we recently featured can be used to serve hors d’oeuvres once its wax burns away. (Available at Original Good for $29.95.)
