Boxometry GlobeIn Artisan Box June 2015 Review - Aban Christabel Coasters

Product: Aban Christabel Coasters (Ghana)
Retail Value: $12.00

These coasters are made from discarded plastic bags in Ghana. The top features traditional batik fabric with varying patterns, and the bottoms are made of upcycled plastic bags. I think these coasters are very neat, and a great way to reuse plastic. The only issue is that the company put the price tag attachment through the coasters, so all of mine have a small hole in them.

Product: Hip To Be Fair Tea Time Bunting (India)
Retail Value: $14.00

We just had a 1st year birthday party for our little guy, but the bunting didn't quite fit the kiddie decor. However, I love the version I received (anything with pink automatically becomes my favorite). I think it's great for outdoor parties with trees and greens as the backdrop. According to the booklet, this bunting is made from upcycled Indian saris, which are popular traditional garments.
