Recycled Straw Jewelry by Linda Schailon

Posted: 02 Oct 2011 04:00 AM PDT

I never knew drinking straws came in so many different colors until I saw Linda Schailon's eco-rings. Her aptly named Flow collection is made by putting together recycled straws.

This Italian designer's sense of color comes into play as her recycled straw jewelry is available in so many different color  and pattern combinations.

Our use of plastic has resulted in so much of the stuff going to the landfills that many designers are now coming up with unique ways to divert that flow.  It's yet another indication of how appropriate the name of this collection is.

Although the rings may not appeal to everyone, fashionistas who are passionate about making the world a cleaner place may well be interested.
